My Fuji Finepix camera doesn't seem to be working properly and I need to get a new one, but would prefer to keep the expensive memory card that I only bought 18 months ago. Thanks.
XD memory cards - can they only be used in Fuji digital cameras?
Most Olympus and Fuji cameras use xD cards as the xD card is a proprietary technology and was developed by Olympus %26amp; Fuji together. However, Olympus SLR can also use CF in addition to xD.
Reply:That expensive memory card you bought 18 months ago...is now worth next to nothing. You could easily buy 2-3 new (same capacity) memory cards, today...for the same price.
So, there's no real need to stick to the same brand of camera.
Only Fujifilm and Olympus use xD cards.
Most other brands of camera uses the faster, SD memory card.
Reply:18 months is way too long to think your memory card is worth deciding what camera to buy. The price you paid 18 months ago is a non-issue. Check out Ebay and move on.
Reply:Fuji and Olympus introduced xD cards in about 2002, and most cameras they have produced since use this card. Given that this is eons ago in digital camera terms, all their new models and most recent secondhand ones will be xD compatible. Of course, it will still we worth checking for that ultimate peace of mind.
Reply:XD is only used by Fuji and Olympus. Memory cards are very cheap now (2Gbyte SD cards are around £10) , so I wouldn't place much importance on staying with XD.
Reply:some olympus cameras
Reply:Many compact digital cameras take XD cards - simply say that is a requirement to the shop at which you are choosing your replacement (or check the camera details if buying on line)
