What to do with low memory sd cards?

now a days cameras use 512mb sd cards as a bare minimum.





I just bought a 2gb to replace my 512, the 512 is still useful, but i still have a 256mb and a 64mb SD card. What can i do with them?? they seem pretty useless.





too bad cars dont have sd slots and can read mp3 files.

Get an old camera that uses that card and keep it in your glove dept, so if you have an accident, take pictures instantly.
Reply:Something you could do is buy one of those digital picture frames. Then take pictures you want put onto the frame, save rev. versions, and then lower the quality of the rev. version so that each picture is just under 1MB. Then put those revised photos onto the lower-capacity cards and then insert those cards into the picture frame. Voila.
Reply:I have two older (and simple) digital cameras. Each came with an 8-MB card. I added a 64-MB card as a backup but seldom need it.





Your newer camera probably needs a lot more memory, but I would think you could use the 512-MB card as a spare.





This is how I use my cards. When I am taking a lot of photos (like on vacation), I download the photos each day to a computer and then email them to myself. I delete them from that computer after I've emailed the photos.





Then I erase the cards for the next photo shoot. The 8-MB cards are usually okay for my needs, but I always have the 64-MB card when I need it.
