Convert an SD/SDHC Card to a CF Card

If you have more than one camera, you know they can utilize different card formats. Many DSLR cameras use the compact flash card format, while point and shoot cameras and the newer camcorders tend to employ either the SD/SDHC or MMC format.

An easy solution to the format dilemma is to use a card adopter like the one below. It accepts SD/SDHC/MMC cards and adoptts them for use in devices requiring compact flash cards only. Since the price of these smaller format cards is generally less then CF cards, this adopter is a great way to increase storage capacity inexpensively. Also, it is currently on sale at Amazon for only $17.28.

I have two of these and use SDHC class 10 cards rather than Compact Flash. Works great.
