Warning
I had a lot of trouble with my Canon Ixus camera when I used a no-name brand memory card. I ended up losing some of my shots. To make it less likely that you experience card failures I suggest you do two things. Firstly, fork out the extra dough to buy a well-known brand, such as Kingston, Transcend, Lexar or Sandisk. The second precaution is to format the card in your camera before using it for the first time.
