This is really random, and this is a question from my dad.

Has anyone ever seen a digital camera that uses a jump drive (USB key, thumb drive, etc) instead of a compact flash drive?

When you say "my camera has a USB", aren't you talking about its USB interface to the PC? If I understood the question correctly, he's asking if any digital cameras record to a USB storage device instead of a memory stick or some other kind of flash memory card.

My camera records to mini-CDR's...

I've never seen one with a fully featured USB port for recording to USB storage devices.

It seems like the usb drive thing would stick off the side and be annoying.
