Hi, I have a Nikon D1 and a D1x, I have a 4gb compact flash card and it does not work in either Nikon, is there a reason for this, the 4gb card works in my Minolta Dimage A1. Camperman

I think you may be right. I did see that they recommended a 512K CF Card or a 1Gb Microdrive. They were pretty big storage back in 2001 & not cheap. I recall not being able to afford 256Kb card back then & being thrilled with a 128Kb. How times have changed.
