G'day Chris,
My Fuji Finepix S9500 also takes CF cards, but I bought an SD/SDHC Cf Card Adapter on eBay for next to nothing so I can use the SD cards that I already had. You can also pick up reliable Sandisk CF cards on eBay, just ensure you buy from an Australian dealer, such as the following,

I have bought several items from this dealer and have had no troubles at all.
Cheers
Chris
