August 5, 2003 | Mark Goldstein | Digital | Comment |

PhotographyBLOG reader Mike Strock has reminded me that Lexar have started shipping a 4Gb compact flash card. Retailing at $1,499 and capable of storing around 600 RAW files froma digital SLR like the Canon EOS 10D, this card is aimed firmly at the professional photographer. Here’s an eye-opening quote from Gizmodo.com:

“Four gigabytes is enough to store as many as 45,000 JPEGs, which is probably more photographs than the average person will take in their entire lifetime.”
