In real life I tend to over simplify it.=C2=A0 1GB per hour of stereo audio=
 at CD quality.=C2=A0 If you're at a point where you "NEED" to know the exa=
ct capacity, you're probably better off getting a second or third card than=
 asking the question.=C2=A0

I recently got a second battery for my camcorder.=C2=A0 And while I've only=
 needed (debatable) to use the second battery ONE time so far.=C2=A0 There'=
s a certain peace of mind that fills the air knowing that I already have a =
fully charged spare to go at a moments notice.=C2=A0 Just that knowledge se=
verely affects what and how I record.=C2=A0 And the immediate difference wh=
en asked how did it come out, is that I can check and show a sample.=C2=A0 =
Versus just telling them, I wont know until I get home.

The old I hope I have enough gas to get home.=C2=A0 Ummm, there's a gas sta=
tion, fill up already.=C2=A0 If you're at a point where you can't fill up, =
perhaps getting home isn't your greatest concern.
