Happiness is a 4gb memory stick

Happiness is a 4gb memory stick



        Last Saturday, Chris & I went shopping and I came home with a 4GB Memory Stick for my digital camera.   This is a little card that fits into a slot at the bottom of my camera.   Ben tells me that the technology of this is similar to that of a jump drive.   The result of adding this device is 4 gb of additional photo storage.   That would be four billion extra bytes.  

       Now, I can change the resolution of my pictures from 3 megapixels to 6 megapixels, thus doubling the clarity.   Also I can now increase the amount of pictures from 20 at 3 megapixels, to 1300 pictures, at 6 megapixels.   All for around $25 dollars.

       I cropped this cardinal out of a much bigger picture.   He shows up a lot more clearly at the higher resolution.

    My camera memory cards are only 2 GB’s. They are making them bigger all the time.

  3. I like that little cardinal picture.

    I wonder if that gadget would work on my digital? I will have to ask techie husband when he gets home.

  4. There is a slot, on the bottom of my camera, that I can see only when I open up the area that contains the rechargable battery. We took my camera to Microcenter, handed it to the guy in the camera department and asked him to find us the right one.
