Cheapest will be Kingston and Transcend. Try asking around in Sim Lim.
For Transcend, can try Memory World (IIRC) in Funan.

Maybe i am not lucky enough , got a Lexar 4gb but when first insert into A700 , it cannot be read & unable to shoot ... In the end , changed for other media for my kids to use .

For me , i will still go for Sandisk Extreme Series .

Ya lor , have to take note on the writing speed too , cheaper CF Cards may not be able to write so fast . I have problems , not really a problem actually , its just slower when using the Kingston ... :sweat:
