subject: What Is A Xd Picture Card [print this page] Devices such as digital cameras and mp3 players that were made before 2010 all supported xD picture cards. xD card stands for Extreme Digital card and it is a flash memory card. Most of the new devices that are available in the market do not support xD card but rather support even more compact memory card called microSD card.
The xD cards are available in various sizes such as 16MB, 32MB, 64MB, 128MB, 256MB and 512MB. xD picture cards were made available by FujiFim and Olympus. Hence, you can find that almost all the digital cameras from FujiFilm and Olympus supported xD cards.
The type M xD picture card is powered with multi-level cell architecture which gives you a storage capacity of 8GB. The type H xD card comes with a maximum storage capacity of 2GB and has a slower read-write capability as compared type M. The type H is no longer manufacture by Fuji and Olympus. When the xD card was released, it had to compete with rival memory card formats like SD card, CF card and Memory Sic from Sony.The thing that I struggle with is what to do with all the cards that I receive. I know how long it must have taken to get the puppy to sit still for a picture. And, I have seen how difficult it can be to distract my niece from her toys, dress her up in an adorable outfit, and get her to smile for the camera. I want to appreciate my friend and family's hard work and not just discard the pictures they send. Because of this, I have found many easy and creative options to showcase the picture cards I receive.
Compatible card readers can be used to perform transfer data from your xD picture card to your PC. If you are looking for xD card for your digital camera or mp3 player, you can still find them online through websites that sell electronic devices and accessories.
