If you're using it with a Fuji camera, get an XD card type H. If you can't get a type H card, get an SD card.
Reply:Right now, xD only goes up to 2GB. If you want a bigger card, you don't have a choice.
Reply:The XD memory card standard was largely developed by Olympus. A few years ago, Olympus made some very good quality digital cameras and XD gained some ground with Fuji. Sadly, Olympus has been eclipsed by Nikon, Sony and Canon.





By the SD memory cards. They are available with higher capacity than are XD (even though they are physically smaller!), they transfer data faster and they generally cost less.





Check and see if your camera can use the new SD HC (High Capacity) cards. They are electrically different than are SD and so not always compatible. If it can sue them (likely), you can get 8GB and soon 16GB SD HC cards.

Reply:It sounds like you have a fujifilm camera... they are the only ones that use both. Buy SD cards ... they are the most used of any card in the point and shoot genre of digital cameras.





When you buy a new camera in about three or four years, you will have more choices among the other cameras that use SD cards.
