1 GB = 1, 000 MB

if a picture is, say 3 MB (quite large) then 333 pictures.

if a picture is, say 1 MB (medium) then 1000 pictures.

if a picture is smaller, say 0.7 MB then 1428 pictures.

if you look at the display on the camera it usually tells you how many pictures you can take.

as for videos… Depends on the length.a typical 20 seconds video is perhaps ~ 10 MB so 100 videos or so.

Not all that many.SD cards aren't expensive - an 8GB card will cost you about 10 bucks. Buy one.

Number of pictures that can be stored on a memory device

The Nikon L20 is a 10MP camera. For a 10MP camera they say that you can take around 286 pictures.

Video is a lot harder to estimate and I can't find any reliable source of information. It seems as though compression and resolution variables can cause big differences in time.
