My camera has XD cards because it is an Olympus camera. When I first had the camera I was able to buy 128mb and 256mb cards for it. Now the lowest I can get is 512mb. Mostly 1gb and 2g cards are for sale. I have seven memory cards.
Which memory card does your camera have? Like XD or SD
How many memory cards do you have?

I have a 256mb card on my old fuji cam. I use it only when going abroad or mostly to update my school blog. © ronaldinu 2008

I always had a 256 MB SD card in my Kodak Digital Camera but a few months ago I upgraded it to a 1 GB card. It holds some 700 photo's and seeing as I rarely take photographs it is more than adequate for me! When I do take pictures I usually remove them from the card and put them on my PC using the card reader on my laptop, so the card in the camera is pretty much always empty.

We can share the same memory card:) My camera is Fuji. And only Fuji and Olympus uses XD cards. Right now my XD card is 2GB. Compare to the past, the price is lower a lot. However, I like SD much more because it's cheaper. Although XD card is better because it runs faster and it's smaller.
I love China

I currently have a couple of 256MB CF cards and a few 16MB CD cards - because they came with something I bought, but they are pretty useless!
I use both SD cards and CF cards for my cameras(and a few micro and mini SD cards in my phones and PDA). The SD cards are 1G (x2) and 2G (x1) and a couple of 512Mb just-in-case. My CF cards are 1G (x4), 2G(x4), 4G (x3) and 8G(x3).
The slowest cards are a couple of 1G 80x, mst are 120 or 130x, and 2 of the 4G and 2 of the 8G cards are UDMA cards rated at 300x or 330x.
Only 2 of my cameras are able to make use of the UDMA standard, and cards larger tham 4G trick the counters on one (the card still works- te camera just stops counting at 999), but high transfer rates are really important when you shoot a llot at high speed, or if your files are very large, as with 15Mp cameras working in RAW or even Fine jpeg.
I usually prefer the 4G cards over the 8G; I figure that if something goes wrong, I'd rather lose 4 Gigs of pictures than 8 gigs!

We have a few SD cards because all our cameras use those. Most of them are 2gb because the price was right at the time we bought them.
I think we had a camera that used XD cards before but we don't have that one anymore. and I have no idea of what happened to the card.

I have a lot of digital cameras. One of my digital cameras doesn't take any memory cards all, all of the memory is internal. All of my DSLRs and two of my point and shoots take CF cards. Then I have a Nikon point and shoot that takes SD cards, and a Sony point and shoot that takes Memory Stick Pro Duo cards.
I have one 2 Gig Memory Stick Pro Duo card, one 256 MB SD card, and one 2 Gig SD card. Then I have a whole bunch of CF cards. I have one 8 gig, two 2 gig, two 1 gig, three 512 MB, one 256 MB, one 128 MB and one 32 MB CF cards.

My Fuji takes both SD and XD so it works well for me as I can still use my old card and my newer XD ones. I have 3 cards and they are all 2gb which on my 12mp camera holds about 695 photos each. x

I have SD cards. I only have one but it's a 1GB card. My digital camera is a Cannon with 6.0 megapixles. I have my camera set to the highest resolution and my SD card can save 300 pictures on it so I can take as many pictures as I want! I love it too because the SD cards are fast and work great.
