xD card - Type H or Type M

r3nu4l · 29-02-2008 9:33am #1

I bought a new camera in the US and like an idiot I assumed it was SD compatible but it turns out it's xD compatible only

So, in light of that can anyone recommend a site where I can get these cards for a decent price?

I'd be particularly interested in getting a Type H card but cheap type M welcome.

Stupid proprietry devices, can't believe I didn't check first :rolleyes: :mad:

Don't know if this would be considered cheap but shop4memory here have them. Seems reasonable enough.

Dunno where you'd get a cheap type H. They're not easy to find - many websites simply say something to the effect of: "you will receive either a type M or a type H card". I wanted a type H too as, supposedly, they're faster - but not as fast as the regular SD card (cheer Fuji/Olympus :rolleyes:).

I managed to get a 1GB type H card in Harvey Normans for €26. A staff member was in the process of repricing a trolley-load of them to €50 - so I was lucky. You could try there if you can't find a better price.

Thanks lads, I did a lot of searching and thanks to Fysh and Coldfire on boards.org.uk I managed to find some great prices and eventually went for this one from Amazon! Surprisingly, when I searched Amazon myself this card never appeared but it did when Coldfire searched for it.

Either way, it's on its way to me now

I tried shop4memory and memory.com as well as 7dayshop and Kelkoo price comparison but Amazon had the best offer. Thanks again!
