EOS 1D Mk I Memory question

[lennon33x]

So I read on a review that the EOS 1D Mk I can only hold up to a 2 GB CF memory card. When I looked in the manual from Canon, it showed that greater than 16GB type II memory cards can be used.

Does anyone have any personal experience with an EOS1 holding only a 2 GB and nothing greater?

If so, about how many pictures is that?

If you can't trust the Canon manual for the camera, what can you trust?

On page 27 the manual recommends using 16 Mb, unless you want to shoot Large/Fine when they recommend 64 Mb or larger.

Also, I don't there was a 1D MK I, just a 1D, then a 1D MK II.

I didn't know if it was a previous firmware issue or if people had similar experiences.

I misread the manual. It was up to a 16 MB card, not GB.

That being said, has anyone ever tried using a 4gb or greater card in an EOS 1D?
