speedskater,
maybe you mean using so many cards in scenarios like these: two soccer games on the same day or a vacation where you don't have your computer with you.
does anyone have a good way of what data is on each card?
On my cameras there is a setting that creates a new folder each day or some other interval. So that, along with having the image files continuously numbered, the data is pretty well organized. I just refer to the DATE CREATED on my computer.
Before transferring them to a computer I wouldn't know as none of my SD or CF cards have labels with numbers on them, but if you want to be uber organized you could add labels to them or use a metallic sharpie to add a #1, #2 etc. tag on each.
What about storing the cards?
There are many types of memory card holders, from fabric to hard cased. I have one or two but rarely use em. So using these holders, labeling the card pockets to correspond to the labeled cards could help.
I have about 5 digital cams 2 using CF cards so I have many cards floating around my bags, and office. I am not concerned with what data is on which card because they are either empty-ready to go, in the camera (and able to review the data), or Full-ready to transfer to the computer.
We all have different needs, and processes. To your original question, exactly when are you wanting to know what is on each card?
