Where to buy cheap digital camera cards

This article looks at where you can buy cheap digital memory cards for your digital cameras. Whether from High Street stores such as Jessops cameras or from the Internet, this piece will cover just some of the places where the best deals can be found.

Memory cards

Perhaps, the greatest and certainly, one of the most convenient aspects of digital photography, is that you no longer need a film. You are not constantly changing rolls and there is no need for expensive and time-consuming film development for digital camera prints. The memory card replaced all that and allowed photographers to take literally hundreds of pictures per card even when shooting in RAW format.

High Street or Internet

Memory cards were once fairly expensive, but their prices have considerably fallen in recent years. You can pick up a 8GB or even 16GB cards cheaply, but depending on where you shop, they can still cost you a lot of money. As with most purchases, the High Street tends to be more expensive than web-based suppliers, as obviously, web companies do not have the overheads that the High Street stores do. However, stores such as Jessops do have sales on from time to time, so it’s worth checking them out. You may also benefit from the face-to-face expert advice that specialist photographic stores can offer.

Discount suppliers

The Internet though, is the cheapest place to shop for digital photo cards. Although, nearly every website, from Amazon to HMV sells them, probably the best places to shop are those sites that specialise in discounted photography and electronic supplies. Sites such as Lowpricememory.co.uk or 7dayshop.com have a vast assortment of compact flash, SD or USB memory cards at low prices. Many sites also offer free post and packing, but some of the sites will charge for shipping, so read the terms and conditions before purchasing.

Unlikely supliers

There are also many websites that you may not associate with photographic supplies that now sell cheap digital memory cards. Sites such as Viking, who are better known for office supplies and Play.com has some low prices on their memory cards. So, as you should do with all your purchases, always shop around!
