I was told that once a memory card gets a lot of images (and this is true or larger capacity drives) that the browsing speed can be delayed as the camera has to index all the images.

I can confirm that !

that happening with a normal 1GB card (70% full)

The Ultra will be fine for your needs. There will not be a noticable (if any) difference in their speeds for you. Even on a DSLR, there will be minimal difference between the 2, which makes the Ultra the best speed/price card.

I'm shooting sports with them myself (1GB and 2Gb CF versions) using 5 fps Raw files that are 8Mb each and the cards do a great job of keeping up.
