Not a flexible card.

Advantages: Fast, accurate, good capacity and Olympus extras
Disadvantages: A little bit fiddlier than SD or CF

...Mount Olympus. No, an Olympus M-XD card is a memory card designed to store data. The xd format is smaller and neater than the more common SD card, in fact roughly half the size. Olympus has marketed it for their cameras, with the plan that it would fit more easily than the larger type of cards. It can be used in other cameras which take the xd card, and other electrical items as well. 2 What are its features? It is a 2GB version, and that was the largest available XD card when I bought mine. However, the technology that was used in creating it, can be adapted for larger amounts of memory in the future, and up to 8GB cards are being planned at present. The special features of this Olympus card relate to their own brands of camera. It can allow panoramic shots to be taken, stored and then compiled in conjunction with their own...

Review of Olympus M-XD 2GM M-TYPE 2048 MB

A good choice of memory card

Advantages: Easy to use and stores lots of photos
Disadvantages: Can be expensive if you don'tshop around

...As many of you probably know I suddenly had to buy a couple of USB flash drives to save my pictures on due to my laptop 'playing up'. Not only that, there was also another reason why it was important for me to get this extra storage space so soon especially after my friend telling me how important it was to have them stored somewhere other than just my laptop This is because I have recently bought a new camera for our forthcoming trip to Florida early next year which I wanted to have a little early so that I could also take it on my upcoming work trip to Paris. With the new camera I needed to purchase a few bits to go with it including a gorgeous pink case and more importantly a new memory card and card reader. After researching which memory card would be suitable to match my camera I decided on this one - the Fuji 2GB XD TYPE M. What...

Fuji's XD Memory Card

Advantages: Great choice of memory size
Disadvantages: Superseded

...The Fuji XD Picture Card I bought with the Fuji FinePix F700 camera was the 512 MB version this allows a good amount of photo?s to be taken depending what mode your camera is set to quality wise the greater the quality the more space that is needed.

Review of Fujifilm XD-Picture Card 256 MB

A brilliant card with plenty of capacity

Advantages: more than enough photos
Disadvantages: only really useable in cameras

...Out of the 3 cards i own this is by far the best. It is easy to use has plenty of capacity and i think it is more compatible with my camera than the other branded XD cards. But first just a few statistics: if you have a 5, 6, 7, 8 or 10 mega pixel camera this card will hold 815, 675, 570, 500 or 400 photos respectively, which is obviously double the capcity of a 512mb card. You are also able to store at least 18 minutes of video on this card (best quality with sound) and at poorer qualities without sound you are able to hold nearly four hours. In terms of size and weight this card is no bigger than any other XD card and is smaller than other model cards such as compact flash, in fact it can be compared in size to a penny. From my personal experience i have found this card to be perfect in terms of capacity. I have taken it on many...

XD Card Sir? 256meg? Nice bit of Schmutter! .

Advantages: Masses of storage on a small card.
Disadvantages: Risk of losing it.

...camera. You are then safe in the knowledge that you will have the genuine item, and your warranty is valid. There are two types of these cards, M and H type. They each have a different method of digitally encoding, but that need not concern us, as they are completely interchangable and compatable. The transfer rate on these cards is 5mb per second. They came ready to use, you don't need to format them first like you have to do with the Tomtom. The cards were jointly developed by Fujifilm and Olympus. They are coloured black, it is a shame they are not some colour like hi-vis yellow, because if you drop one of these outdoors, you may never find it. They do come in a protective case, which is easy enough to keep in the same case as your camera, my tip here is to make the case easy to spot, although the time you are most likely to lose...

Review of Fujifilm XD-Picture Card 256 MB

This will seem small beer in a few years time

Advantages: Huge capacity, tiny format
Disadvantages: Olympus own-brand are sold at a premium

...available with Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) media. At 20 × 25 × 1.7mm, xD is one of the smallest 'mainstream' memory formats - the specification currently offers up to one gigabyte of storage, although not all xD enabled Olympus cameras (mainly the older ones) support up to this amount of storage! The main difference between Olympus cards, and Fuji ones is that the former offers 'panorama' picture mode to be used on their cameras. This comes at a slight premium, so if yours is a Fuji - there's precious little point in buying them! Why would you want as much as a gigabyte of storage? - well - at the highest resolution, my 1Gb card in my C-8080 Wide Zoom camera (at highest resolution uncompressed RAW format) offers up to 87 pictures, although the lowest resolution format allows 9999 shots! - In video mode, nearly three...

Review of Olympus 1GB xD Picture Card

Increase your memory with Fuji

Advantages: Small and compact and affordable
Disadvantages: can't be used with all cameras

...FujiFilm xD Card As I use only FujiFilm digital cameras ? see previous product reviews on Ciao ? I generally buy their memory. Until recently I had a variety of xD cards in various sizes. To be honest these pretty much met my needs, the highest being 512mb. Now this would hold around 240 pictures using the 6.0mp picture size. But, eager as I am to always have things bigger and better, I had been considering buying a 1gb card for a while. Don?t know why I did not, but while I was thinking along comes the sooper dooper 2gb version. I had to have it. I mean just had to! Why? Who knows? I?ll never be able to take enough photos in a year to fill it unless I give up my day job. The card will hold a massive 950 (or so) pictures at 6.0mp. I normally take photos at 3.0mp as this is more than adequate in terms...

Sumvision M18 2GB

...Sumvision M18 2GB The Sumvision M18 is a brilliant MP3 player, which makes your music very portable. This MP3 player is very easy to use and with 2GB of memory you can hold about 600 songs. Equalizer - Normal - Rock - Pop - Classical - Jazz This MP3 player is not that fancy and doesn't have many features but if you want a simple MP3 player just for listening to music on then this is the product for you.

Review of Sumvision M18 2 GB

~~EXTREME STORAGE FOR PHOTO HOBBYISTS~~

Advantages: Could handle additional enhancement of the photos
Disadvantages: Quite little expensive than the normal XD photo cards

...picture card: Type H 512MB prior to my US trip in July. The difference between with this and the former standard cards is that type H (high speed) offers a higher data rates and 3 times faster. The card can store up to 523 photos and 18:30 minutes of video recording. Other basic features includes: dimension - 20mmX25mmX1.78mm; weight - 2.8 grams (comparable to a 10-pence coin); writing speed - 9 MB/s; operating voltage - 3V; and read speed - 15 MB/s. And most importantly (for Olympus users), Type H card provides a 'special features or effects' in the photo developing/printing which I will discuss it next. ***HOW does XD Olympus Type H picture card work? 1. Speed and Special Effects This feature is only available for this type of picture card. The new major functions of the cards cover the lightning-fast image capturing and the creative...
