how often do you renew CF cards?

[roc1]

I shoot on Sandisk CF cards for my wedding work which are great, but wondered how often people replace their cards for new ones? Every couple of years?

Thanks

Added to my collection of CF and SD cards, just rotate them after every venture, never had to replace them yet. Probably depends how much you use them

Tend to upgrade due to capacity and speed improvements every two/three years.

Ditto..................... twin card slots in the D610 do instil more confidence in the cards though.

I've never replaced any cards though have upgraded to larger and faster so obsolescence seems to deal with any potential problems.

Never replaced any of them, just bought a couple of bigger ones. I've still got some from when I bought my D70 10 years ago although I don't use them often due to their low capacity.
