Hi,
What capacity is the memory card?
+
+Did you format the card in the camera?
What format are you taking the images in?
If taking them in ''RAW'' mode it takes more than 8x the data space for the same image than if you had taken it in medium/normal mode, i.e. approx 10MB/image versus 1.2MB/image
Here’s an image taken from the [http://www.canon.ca/support_images/KB_Images/EOS_XTi_UG_EN.pdf|User Guide] (p.166) showing the various modes and their file sizes.
