What speed for F50 SD memory card?

[gryffin]

Hello:

I just purchased an Fuji F50. I now need to select a memory card. I'm trying to decide between the Sandisk Ultra 2GB and the Sandisk Extreme 2GB. Can my camera take advantage of the extra speed on the Sandisk Extreme, or is the Ultra sufficient?

I can get either for $16.99, but the Ultra is $16.99 out-of-pocket and the Extreme is $16.99 after a rebate.

Thanks for any advice in advance.

Ultra is sufficient. Very few P&S cameras can take advantage of 150x speed. However, if they are the same price get the Extreme. If you use a USB card reader it will allow you to download the images quicker.
