Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Fujifilm 1 GB xD-Picture Card Flash Media Type M ( 600002298 )
Customer Review: This is the Best xD picture card ! I can take pictures all I want....
Summary: 5 Stars
Hi! I just recently received my Fujifilm 1 GB xD picture card from Amazon.com and I must say I LOVE IT!
I was unsure at first, if this new Type M picture card would be compatible with my old Fuji Finepix 3800 digital camera- but I did some research on the Fuji.com website and I am happy to report that it is compatible with the Fuji Finepix 3800 camera! You can also go to the fuji.com website and look at their xD compability chart if your unsure if it will work for your camera - I would definitely check before purchasing.
I am now able to take as many pictures as I can possibly take (I doubt that it will be more than the range that this card can hold) and not have to worry about deleting ones that may take up my picture card. Did I already say that I love having this 1GB picture card? =)
I don't use the video mode in my digital camera as often as I should, since I rely on my camcorder. But, I decided I'd test it out for this review and it works fine, but I would like to point out that my Finepix 3800 model only goes up to the 320 x240 mode. The packaging on the xD says that it may give video difficulties if your digital camera uses video that shoots at 640 x480 pixels or if you have these particuliar camera models listed as follows: E550, F810, S5000, S5100, S7000 and S20 models. I do not use my video mode, so this did not concern me, I was more concerned about first, if it was compatible with my camera and second, how many pictures it would be able to hold. But if you do have those particuliar model numbers noted above and you DO use the video mode on your digital camera, you may want to think about it before purchasing the type M picture cards.
If your digital camera takes the Fuji xD picture cards - you definitely have to upgrade to this 1 GB picture card. I currently own a 16mb and two 128 mb xD picture cards (all bought before this new type M picture card), why buy all of these, when you can just buy one 1GB picture card.
It is perfect for me because my family and I will be going on a Disney vacation and the last thing I wanted to worry about during my vacation, was having to review all my pictures on my picture card just to free up some memory (for those with a 16mb picture card, you know what I mean). But now I can happily click away.
Here is what is listed on the back of the package of the xD:
6 Million Pixels:
680 pictures on the normal mode
341 pictures on the fine mode
4 Million Pixels:
1065 pictures on the normal mode
537 on the fine mode
3 Million Pixels:
1305 pictures on the normal mode
586 pictures on the fine mode
Note from myself: The above numbers may vary beacause I currently own a 3.2 Mega Pixel camera and my camera says I am able to take about 816 at the highest quality mode and not 537 as the fuji package label suggested, but fuji does note that approximate numbers may vary depending on the camera model.
The Fuji packaging also says that this xD picture card Type M is compatible with ALL 2005 Fujifilm models. It also says that this picture card is NOT compatible with the following finePix models F700 and 602. Video mode may experience interruption of movie recording at 640 x 480 pixels and/or increased processing times for on the E550, F810, S5000, S5100, S7000 and S20 models.
Pros:
1) It's 1 GB and definitely blows away my old 128 mb xD picture card!!! I am kicking myself for not getting this sooner.
2) I am now able to take as many as 816 pictures on the highest quality - which for my camera would be at the 3 M Fine mode and 1728 at 3M normal, and over 7995 at the O.3 mode (lowest quality)!! These numbers are with my Fuji finepix 3800 camera, numbers may vary with your own digital camera - it may be more or less depending on the type of camera you currently own. My current camera is only a 3.2 mega pixel camera. If you own a 6 mega pixel camera, it will probably be lower, but I bet still a lot more than the 512 mb picture card.
3) The price is right, I was initally going to buy the 512 mb picture card at Walmart for $73, but I'm glad that I now have 1 GB to use, and only paid around $12 or so more for a 1GB picture card, plus amazon.com threw in the free shipping for me, what more could I have asked for. (By the way, amazon.com shipped mine via USPS First Class mail).
4) Why carry three various picture cards, when you can just purchase one 1 GB picture card.
Cons:
I thought about some con's just to be fair and balanced, but I could not think of any, as of yet.
I hope my review helps you determine whether you would like to purchase it or not. Happy picture taking from one shutterbug to another! =)
Description of Fujifilm 1 GB xD-Picture Card Flash Media Type M ( 600002298 )
Fuji Original 1Gig xD Picture CardThe xD-Picture Card's principal benefits include: Capacity: The media's development roadmap shows storage capacity potential of up to 8GB. Dimensions: 20mm x 25mm x 1.7mm (0.8 x 1.0 x 0.07 inches). This size makes the xD-Picture Card the smallest memory card available. Read/Write Speeds: The xD-Picture Card will have one of the fastest read/write speeds on the market. A 16MB or 32MB card can record data at 1.3MB/sec. A 64MB card or higher can record data at 3MB/sec and both offer a read speed of 5MB/sec. These high speeds can greatly enhance the user's experience with a product. For example, a photographer can take new pictures or view existing images more quickly with the xD-Picture Card media than with other, slower media formats. Power Consumption: The xD-Picture Card was designed to use minimal power. Users will benefit from the convenience and savings of longer battery life on a single charge. Compatibility: Adaptors make xD-Picture Cards compatible with other media. A PC card adaptor and a USB card reader are currently availableDigital Cameras & Photo Categories
