Are they SLR's? My point/shoot Canons use SD but not my 300d or 30d, gotta break out the USB cable or CF adapter.

However, having said all that, I don't think it would make that much difference with most of the consumer or prosumer cameras, in some of the pro SLR's like the Canon 1D it does as these cameras would take advantage of the extra speed.
Yea I know, but I would figure theyd at least use SD card for the 1.6 crop cameras and maybe keep the CF for full frame or something. Its not something that would ever make me choose another brand just a nit pick. I dont even know why Im complaining my Mac doesnt even have an SD card slot
