Edit: I recieved a couple cards from two very generous Dgrinners. Thanks guys!!!:D


A friend has a motion activated game camera that he is having trouble finding a CF card for. It's manual states that it will only accept up to 512mb. If anyone has an old 128mb, 256mb, or 512mb CF card they no longer need please let me know. Two cards would be perfect....he could remove a card to examine the photos and replace it with a fresh one on each visit.

Thanks

    Jeff - I MAY have one, but let me check (it's not in front of me and I'm not 100% sure of hte bytage)- if it's under 512, I'm happy to send it to you. If you don't hear from me in the next day or so, shoot me a PM to remind me!

    Dang. Until last week I had a 256MB laying around here but I finally threw it away thinking "when will I ever use this again?" :( Sorry!

    I have at least a 128MB and probably a 256MB in my office at work that aren't being used.

    Thanks Z,


    By the way folks....I have already recieved one 64Mb card from Divamum....so this will be the second card I was looking for. That should fix my friend up just fine.

    I appreciate this more than you know!

    I just got back from a business trip and went scrounging through the old cards file and found the following:

    I REALLY appreciate this Z. The next challenge will be getting up to his place....and out in the woods to help him get it operating....and then show hime how to change the cards and upload the contents to a computer. I can promise though, that you couldn't be sending it to a nicer guy.

    You know, if there are more cards available you might want to take them as finding them is only going to get more difficult over time and they do fail eventually.

    It won't be long before someone says "Anyone got something sub-8GB lying around, my 'old' DSLR won't take anything bigger".

    :)

    I have a 32MB Canon card; a 64MB Maxell and a 128MB Lexar if you would like them.
