Howdy John,
According to the Nikon web site, here are the approved CF (CompactFlash)
cards for your camera.

"...

SanDisk SDCFB series 16 MB, 32 MB, 48 MB, 64 MB, 96 MB, and 128 MB.

Lexar Media 8x USB series 8 MB, 16 MB, 32 MB, 48 MB, 64 MB, and 80 MB.
Lexar Media 10x USB series 128 MB and 160 MB.
Other brands and capacities of cards may work, but Nikon cannot guarantee
their operation."
From this nikondigital.org (not associated with Nikon) web page, the
specifications for the Nikon Coolpix 775 gives us the type of CF card
your camera uses.

"Media CompactFlash (CF) Card Type I"
From the Nikon page, there is the hint that other Type I CF cards might
work in your camera, and the PCUpgrades.com web site lists such a CF card.

"CF/512 512MB COMPACT FLASH CARD $62.00"
For now, let's just deal with the SanDisk CF cards, as that is what you
have indicated you are pricing. At Buy.com, you can get a great deal on
a SanDisk SDCFB 128 MB CF card which is 4 times bigger than a 32 MB card.

"$28.02 ... Qualifies for free shipping"
I looked at the Amazon prices and the above is a better deal than I could
find for the much smaller 32 MB card in new condition and including shipping.
If you need any clarification, feel free to ask.
