    so I was wondering what is the maximum size my rebel XT can handle, or if there is a limit at all? with cards being so cheap I am thinking of picking up a new 16gb card or something before my trip.

    thanks!

    The skys the limit, but I think, IIRC, it will only format up to 8 gigs. You'll have to format anything larger in your computer.

    I think youd be better off getting a few small ones than one large one. Losing 2 or 4GB worth of pics > Losing 16GB to a corrupt card.

    I agree with this, changing a card every couple of hours is worth it IMO

    a 4gig card when I had my XT could take something like 450-500 pictures if I remember right
