[MacDV] Compactflash info help

[Shirley Kehr]

Thickness of the media. Type I is a little thinner. Type II sort of 
eclipsed Type I in capacity, but lately Type I has made a come back and 
has higher capacities too. For all practical purposes, just buy the 
capacity and brand name you are comfortable with. Occasionally, still 
digital cameras have had issues with certain brands and dpreview forum 
users would compile lists of which cards work with which cameras. I 
don't know if that's an issue with camcorders.

Is the movie going on compact flash, or just still images?

My Canon S1 IS still camera takes up to 1GB AVI movies, full size. The 
files are accepted by iMovie.
