Olympus xD-Picture Card M+ 2 GB

Worked perfectly for my old Fujifilm camera from 2001. I swapped out my old 128MB card for this 2GB card and could take tons of pictures on my vacation at the 3M setting and never came close to filling it. I did not notice any speed improvement when taking pictures. The biggest factor in speed for me is the battery quality. Switching from cheap batteries to Kodak KudAA4 Ultra Digital Alkaline AA Batteries - 4 Pack made a huge difference, especially when flash turned on due to power drain characteristics between pictures to charge up for flash again. So all that I saw was dramatically increased capacity (16X) which worked without a problem. I couldn't be more thrilled. Definitely go to the Olympus website or your camera's website and check picture card compatibility. The manual for my camera was out of date and only listed a max of 256MB and said nothing about these newer "M" and "M+" card types. But a quick check on the Fujifilm website linked me to an Olympus compatibility site which listed a large table of camera models and support. Some cameras require a firmware update to support more. My old camera was listed as supporting xD M+ up to 2GB without a firmware update when some newer models than mine needed an update to go beyond 1GB. It seems most support up to 1GB without a problem, and 1/2 support 2GB without an update, another 1/2 (minus a few) up to 2GB with a firmware update, and a few didn't support it. Bottom line, check the online chart for compatibility first. If it lists your model number and doesn't say anything about needing a firmware update, you should be fine. This is an excellent value and works perfectly (check your camera compatibility online, not the outdated manual). I can't imagine any reason not to buy the max your camera supports if the price is very reasonable.

This is the ONLY memory card possible with the Olympus Stylus Tough 8000, which I first saw several years ago on a TV ad in which it was abused with falling, icy water bath, dog biting, etc. That ad sold me on it. Little did I know at the time that it's proprietary memory card was only 2gigs big; not that I ever had a problem with it being filled up--the battery ran out of juice before that ever happened. The problem--and it was the only problem I could find--was that the Olympus Stylus Tough 8000 quickly became obsolete (I still have thousands of stills & vids: please see my Facebook page) because the memory card capacity is small compared to what you can get nowadays (64gigs+) on other action cameras, and I was just starting to learn all of the features, when two bandidos stole it off my Doublevision. Despite my desire to replace it, those thieves really took some of the best vid yet, elementary school students signing the former President Francisco I. Madero at a ceremony at Casa de Adobe, Cd. Juarez. Incidentally, that is a magnificent site, far superior to anything the USA has done, relinquishing Boundary Marker 1 to know more than a Border Patrol turn around point.

I think this is a good product and works well. The price is alot to handle. Bought it for a friend.

Even though Wikipedia said the "xD" picture card is officially obsolete as of 2010, there are still many thousands and thousands of "Olympus and FujiFilm" cameras that these memory cards can be used in. We recently upgraded from our 7 year old FujiFilm FinePix A340 to a Canon PowerShot A3100IS because of the smaller factory installed 64Mb memory card.. and the limited number of pictures/movie length (along with having NO sound capabilities with the A340), that was limited on the A340. Instead of throwing our old FujiFilm camera away, I decided to use it as our bumming around/backup unit.. and as such, upgraded the camera's "firmware" to allow the use of the larger/faster "xD M+" card memory. "Read/Write" speeds increased from the old 64Mb "M" memory of 1.3/5.. to that of the replaced "M+" memory of 3.75/6. Picture capacity and movie length increased from 33 pictures and less than 60 seconds of movies to that now being available of 4,264 pictures.. and a much longer movie time! That's right. Picture capabilities increased a additional 4,231 shots.. all for less than a "$14 Dollar" bill. Now how can you beat that!? P.S. So the question is.. "Why did we purchase a new Canon when all of the above was done for less than $14.00?" What can I say? As a camera nut, what's one more to the several that we already own? (wink)

Hate that I had to buy a proprietary memory card, but I got the camera at a goodwill so cheap I can't complain. Works great in a really old Olympus Tough 7megapixel camera! Really what can you say about a memory card you have to get. It's supposedly the fasted I can get for my model camera, so not a lot of choice. Seems fast enough and it will hold over 500 photos at this low a resolution so if you're looking at this card, I'd say get this as it's the biggest and the fastest for XD cards, not to mention ;you can't find these in the store. I'd buy one soon if you need it before the market makes them very; hard to find and very expensive! Overpriced for 2gb, but still under $20 right now, who knows as less becomes available.

Bien

XD-Karten sind in den Märkten so gut wie nicht mehr erhältlich. Da meine Kamera aber einwandfrei funktioniert und ich die jetzt üblichen SD-Karten nicht verwenden kann, habe ich mich auf die Suche gemacht. Die bei diesem Anbieter sehr günstigen XD-Karten kann ich nur empfehlen. Wollte bei SATURN-Markt die gleiche Karte kaufen und ich sollte dafür dort das doppelte hinlegen. Nein Danke. Ich kann nur von den Elektronikmärkten abraten und sich hier bei AMAZON-Anietern zu bedienen.

2gb per le foto. Comprata per un'amica che ha una fotocamera Fujifilm . Sono molto contento per il fatto che questa XDpicturecard non si trova piu da nessuna parte . Poi è una 2gb, non è tanto, ma visto che lei l'amica aveva 2-3 xdpicturecard che arrivano al massimo a 250 mb. È compatibile con la fotocamera Fujifilm. Consegna e imballaggio tutto ok.

Esta tarjeta no solo vale para cámaras Olympus, también es compatible con las Fujifilm. Yo tengo una cámara vieja Fujifilm de 2005 que funciona de maravilla y gracias a estas tarjetas mi vieja máquina tiene nueva vida otra vez. Estoy encantada con su funcionamiento y sus prestaciones.

I have an old fuji film camera and it has a 256 MB capacity. Even for the 6MP camera, this seemed to woefully small. And could not record videos even. This is sad that the format is deprecated, but thanks to Amazon and the Seller I am able to uprade to it. A word of caution. Please check the specs of the camera on the manufacturer website to make sure that the M+ cards are compatible with your camera before placing this order.
