As is the case with all D-SLRs, Olympus does not include a memory card with the E-500, so you'll have to factor that into the total purchase price. The camera supports both xD and CompactFlash memory cards, though you'll get the most capacity out of CF cards (and they're cheaper too). I'd recommend a 512MB or even a 1GB card as good place to start. The camera takes advantage of high speed memory cards, so for best performance you might want to pick one up..
