depends on the resolution you use.
go to www.steves-digicams.com and go to reviews. look for your camera and at the bottom of the first or second page should be a table with everything

Here are some figures from the Sony F88, 5 megapixel camera:

Image Type..............File size...Images 512MB Stick

2592 x 1944 JPEG Fine...........2,088 KB.....194
2592 x 1944 JPEG Standard..1,270 KB.....365
2048 x 1536 JPEG Fine...........1,381 KB.....311
1280 x 960 JPEG Fine.................617 KB.....748

Quantity on a 256MB stick would be half.
