Hello, I'm going to Rome for 4 days, so I would like to take a lot of photos and the only card I have is a regular 1GB SD card. I would like to know how many I can take with this card in addition to my Canon Digital IXUS 8015 camera?
P.S.: Please respond to me as quickly as possible; I'm leaving on Thursday.
Thank you in advance.

    It all depends on the resolution of your photos, but on average, a standard photo is between 2 and 4 MB. For 1 GB, you can do the math knowing that
    1 GB = 1,000 MB.

    Let's not take any risks, and assume that your photos are 4MB, you will be able to make:

    1024/4 = ???

    I'll let you do the calculation.

    Good evening...

    Your card is 1000 megabytes, each photo requires 4 megabytes >>>> you can take 1000/4 = 250 photos.... that's "roughly" if you set your resolution to 4 megabytes... if you set it to 2 megabytes, you can take double...

    Best regards,

    In the menu of your device, by searching, you can change the resolution. Dig a bit, curiosity opens countless doors.

    Best regards.

    Yes, I'm sorry, it's just because I don't have the manual for my device that I'm asking you!

    The initial question didn't imply that!
    Go to the manufacturer's website or
    www.mes-notices.com
    but while browsing through menus and submenus, you should find...

    See you later
