Thanks for the reply!

I agree with the dumping of pictures if you don't like them. My Camera has compact flash 128M. On the highest resolution (which I prefer) we get around 128 shots. Of course drop it and we can get up to 400 shots on one card. I guess as I really think about it I probably won't need to dump the pictures, and I'm not thinking of having every single shot reproduced. I'm thinking that I will take all the shots, not delete anything, and once home pick and choose those I want prints made of. Not having a laptop limits my dumping options while away. Hence my original questions.

I'm sure 128 shots will be more than enough, but with all the options available with our camera, including panoramic shots and video it will eat up the memory very quickly.

I have found though that since we got the camera we are taking a lot more pictures than before. We used to only use 2 - 3 rolls of film a year. Now we have taken probable more than 2000 pictures in six months.

If the option is there, Great! If it's not than we will work around it. Anyway the idea is for us to just relax and have fun. Which we will. The most important pictures will of course help us to remember every single aspect of our vacation.

Thanks again for your reply.
