Which memory card should I buy with my digital camera?

Mark Comon (Vice President, Paul's Photo, Torrance, CA) gives expert video advice on: How does my digital camera turn my picture into a file?; How do various types of memory cards differ?; How much memory do I need for my digital camera? and more...

So what's the best memory card? The best memory card for my camera is the one that it takes. When you're buying a digital camera, don't think about what memory card it takes, unless you have other devices that take a memory card that you wish to match. Most customers are buying their second or third digital camera and they already have a stack of memory cards. So, I think it's wise to try to buy your next camera that takes the same memory cards. Or maybe you have an MP3 player or a PDA or something that takes a memory card.
