|
|
Aaaah... my final week in Korea dawns and lying before me is a three-month long jaunt back to Blighty.
On the way, the three separate 1Gb memory cards for our camera are going to fill up fast. So, o wise ones, should I...
a) buy a 50 gig external USB drive
b) buy a 250 gig external HDD with power supply
c) go and buy ten more memory cards
d) simply rely on the three cards I've got and upload all photos to my smugmug account before deleting them off my memory card
e) get people to burn us CDs/DVDs of pics on the way home and carry these back
f) do something I haven't thought of yet...
??????????????????????????

Assuming you have a laptop or will have regular access to a computer I would go with the 2.5" external drive of whatever size suits your budget.
if you're looking for less/weight bulk in your bags then I would buy 2-3 of these 4gb MMC cards - I've seen 8gb usb drives but couldn't find 8gb MMC but I'm sure they exist. |
