SanDisk SmartMedia cards are the perfect solution when you're looking for portable, easy-to-use storage for images, audio files, data, and other digital files. SmartMedia cards are light and easy to carry, and they work interchangeably with desktop PCs and laptops. They're easier to transport than a stack of floppy diskettes, and give you more storage capacity and greater ease of use.
1 Value and Quality
First of all... the price and quality are superb.
I have owned mine for about nine months now enduring vacations in Austria and Mexico City. I have had absolutely no problems with my photos (regardless of the countless times I've erased single/all photos as well as formatted the card).
You will be pleased with this card.
2 How many pictures will it store?
How many pictures will it store? It is the most commonly asked question from digital camera enthusiast but usually the question that is the most difficult to get a straight answer about. Well, considering I worked in the memory industry for over 7 years I can help clarify this perplexing question and do so unbiased as I have since changed industries.
The SanDisk 64MB SmartMedia Card, like most 64MB cards, will store on average 71 pictures when used with a 2 megapixel camera, 53 images when used with a 3 megapixel camera, 32 pictures when used with a 4 megapixel camera, 25 images when used with a 5 megapixel camera, and 20 pictures when used with a 6 megapixel camera. These numbers are based off the assumption that you are going to shoot your images at the highest quality JPEG setting available for the camera and understand that they are estimates and may be off by as much as 10 percent due to numerous factors including the complexity of the scene being shot and the compression algorithm used by your specific camera.
I truly hope this review was helpful to you in determining whether this card is the right capacity for your specific needs.
3 Doesn't work so well in my Rio 500
It's not the memory that is bad, but I bought two memory Sandisk 64 mg memory cards for my Rio 500, and you just can't carry them and choose which one you want to listen to without big time hassles. The Rio 500 is so reluctant to recognize the external memory, you have to keep putting it in and taking it out ad nauseum before it finally decides to recognize it. So I don't even do it! I just get the one in there working, and erase that and fill it when I want to change music. SmartMedia cards are real flimsy, not like Compact flash memory, and seem much more fragile. If I was going to choose what kind of flash memory to have in a camera or mp3 player, I'd go with Compact flash or MM flash memory, they are more robust and not so fragile.
4 inSanity for cheap
This media has been perfectly reliable in capture and download through a Olympus C3040. With comparos between the Sony Memory disk and compact flash card twice the thickness, there•Ŕ?s very little difference in r/w that I can notice. Using the 5-shot digital •Ŕ?auto-winder•Ŕ? on the Olympus the card sucks the data down no problem. Even with repeated semi-auto firing, the memory card performs decently. It does lag 2048x1536 (medium quality) and it will do more so at higher levels •Ŕ? but it•Ŕ?s no worse than other formats. USB download through OEM cables is rapid quick compared to the slower compact flash on Kodak DC265 for some reason.
The physical size is unbeatable. The wear and long term use is something to keep an eye on with the contacts exposed compared to the other formats. At this price, I have no complaints buying a bunch and shooting without capacity worries.
5 Good Idea if you want more from your Rio 500.
I purchased my Rio 500 two years ago and love it but at the time I thought the memory it came with was enough but now I purchased the 64 meg card and thanks to the reviews people put on Amazons site I downloaded the firmware and updated so my Rio 500 would take the 64 meg card. I couldnt get it to work at first but found out I had the card in up side down wich didnt look like it should go that way but the Rio recognised the external memory so if you have trouble keep working it will work in the 500. Here is the site I use to update the software, these folks have a super site for Rio players...
6 It works fine , but there is one little wait problem.
It works fine. The only problem is you have to wait for about 5 seconds interval before you can take another picture. It could be because of my camera FujiFilm FinePix1300, I am not sure.
Rather then that it is what I expected.
7 Must have for digital camera users!
This card is a must have in order to get full use of a digital camera. So far so good with this card!
8 It does the Job
The media card is working great with the Olympus 3000. No problems, no issues, just some great photos. With my 12 year old son, he likes to take the digital photos and if it doesn't turn out right (which is most of the time), the photo gets deleted. The media card has shown no ill effect to the massive amount of deletes and adds that the media card had put up with.
A great way to let a young future photographer to practice and learn by the mistakes made WITHOUT having to wait for the photo (and COST) to get developed.
9 A must have for digital photographers!
This the best accessory I have purchased for my Olympus C-3000. The 8mb card that came with it is the camera's only flaw, and a big one at that. Now I won't have to take my laptop with me when I go out to shoot photos, just to be able to take more than 10 or so pictures. I should have bought two!!! Now I need a 128mb card...
10 value
You get a lot of value for the price of this item. I have used it for over a month now and have had only excellent performance with it.
11 Works Perfectly
This smartmedia card works as advertised with my Olympus 2040Z digital camera. Seems fast and reliable so far with 1 month of use. Viking appears to have the best prices & good quality.
12 whoa!!
WOW!! this little card is so small and it holds so much!! I remember the old days where the maximum capacity for computer RAM was 64mb. Heck i even remember whem hard drives were smaller than that. I use it with my Nomad 2c (great player read my review) and it is awesome. really nothing can match it. its fast, portable, and spacious (well sort of). floppies are slow and large compared to this. The only bad thing would be that if you leave it in sunlight, throw it or just bend it, it seems as if it were going to break. but that's no reason why its should be keeping you from buting it....
13 Works in my Minolta C3000Z Camera
What else can I say other than this item worked in the camera that I bought it for. I look forward to the day when these cards are cheaper. But the ScanDisk product was competively priced with other brands.
14 Great Product
This is a good quality product. Buy it. Don't buy the invitations and risk lost photos.
The price maybe a few dollars more but aren't your pictures worth keeping?
15 Works Just Fine
There's not much you can say about a memory card, except that it has been very reliable and works just fine. I have not had any problems using this memory card with either of my digital cameras.
16 Great product for the price!
... a greal deal, in my opinion. I purchased a 32mb card a few days after Christmas at Circuit City,...
I have an Olympus D490, and this card works great with it. A 64mb card is essential if you like to take photos in SHQ mode - I can fit 50+ on my 64mb card, as opposed to about 26 on my 32mb card. Love the camera, love this 64mb card. If you do decide to buy this card, buy it from Amazon - places like Circuit City and Best Buy are still charging way too much.
17 A definate must for a Digital Camera or MP3 player
I bought a Nomad II MG MP3 player back in November of 2000. I thought it was great. I could take my music anywhere in such a small package. The only draw back was the fact it only had enough memory for 16 songs or so at 128. I needed more room. Fortunatly I could get a smartmedia card. The catch... $200.00 at the time! It was crazy. I wanted more memory, not another MP3 player! I kept looking until I found one here. It was a deal I couldn't pass us. I bought one and I think It's the best! I can play music on it, take digital pictures, send large files from my PC to my notebook. It's probably one of the best disks you will find. Go ahead and order 2, I did and I love them!
18 great deal
great deal at 99.94 does away with the only complaint which was the cost. now it is cheaper to get one 64mb card then two 32 mb cards. got it for my rio500 it works great and doubles the storage capacity.
a great deal and a must have for any mp3 player or digital camera
19 If you have a Rio 500 then this is a must!
Being that this has the ability to store on your Rio 500 up to 4+ hours of high quality audio with the Rio's built in 64megs, adding an additional 64 megs doubles that capacity and will allow you also listen to 2+ hours of music at other times.
You'll be surprised at how tiny this thing is, considering that it holds 64,000,000+ bytes of information!
If your digital camera also accepts smartmedia, then you can share this ramcard between your camera and Rio.
A thing to note, though, is if you have a Rio, the internal memory and the external memory act as two independant recording mediums rather than a single seamless 128 megs. What this means is that you have to record tracks to the internal memory and to the external memory separately. If you happen to use Real Jukebox as your Rio interface, Real Jukebox will automatically flow the extra tracks to the external memory when you use up the internal memory. That's a great feature, but if you decide that you want to delete a track from the internal memeory, tracks from the external memory are not shifted over. In essence, you need to treat each RAM module as an independent recording medium.
Get this and you'll be the envy of all those people who still use casette tapes and bulky CD-Players.
20 IT UNLOCKED FBI SECRETS
WHEN I POPPED THIS PIECE OF SLIM SHAT INTO MY COMP. THE DISK GAVE ME SECRET ALIEN CODES, THE FBI FOUND OUT AND PROMPTLY ASSASSINATED ME AND MY SLIM FRIENDS, SO IF YOU BUY THIS THE FBI WILL PROBABLY SNUFF YOU OUT
21 It works, usually.
The first card I bought was DOA. The second (for a Diamond Rio) works fine everytime. Of note, the formatting for a Diamond Rio is different from that for anything else, so even SanDisk's USB (etc) readers cannot decipher data on a card that has been in a Rio. For that you must use the RioPort software or erase and reformat the card in the device in which you would like to use it.
22 Good choice if you want 64MB card. Great w/ Digital Camera.
I'm very pleased with this card. It is real simple to install. Just turn of the camera and pull out the old card and pop the ScanDisk card in. If you you the card with a Olympus D460 camera, you can take over 300 pictures at highest resolution. For a little more money than the Olympus 32 mb card you get twice the capacity. The only difference is that you can't take panoramic shots. Save your 8 mb card for that. The nice thing about the added memory for the camera is now I can take it on vacation and snap as many pictures as I want without worrying about downloading them to a PC. My next purchase will be a USB card reader because the serial connection on my digital camera is painfully slow.
23 Majoy Memory
I use it in my Creative Nomad II, and it works great. It was kinda spendy though.
24 Can't go wrong
I am currently using this card with my Olympus C-3030 Digital camera. It's a little pricey considering you can buy almost 3 32 MB cards for 1 of these. But when you have bigger projects like I do and hate to keep changing cards out, this is a must own.
25 Tiny disk that packs a punch
The first thing that you'll do when you see this thing is wonder how the manufacturer could pack 64MB of space on something so small. It's literally no thicker than a toothpick, and it's not very large in surface area either. Don't be fooled by the picture which gives the appearance of a floppy disk - it's much smaller. But besides just the physical properties, this product is amazing. Of course, you can write and rewrite to the card, which is definitely needed. I use mine with my Rio 500 and it works flawlessly, and writes quickly as well.
There really are no downsides, except that the disk is extremely fragile and the price is insane. But, if it's in your budget, go for it.
If you have any use for extra memory in your mp3 player or digital camera and it accepts smartmedia, consider it, because it truly is an amazing way to get more out of your device. I highly recommend this product. You won't believe how easy it is until you use it, and you'll always be amazed by its size.
26 Great for the Rio 500!
With its new firmware update (be sure to download version 2.12 from the Rioport website), the Rio 500 now supports the 64 MB smart media card. The SanDisk card works absolutely great in the Rio 500 player, no problems at all. Just snap it in, format it, and download 64 MB of MP3 music. Its a breeze. Using MP3 recordings made at the 'better' (128 kbps) or 'best' (160 kbps) sampling rates, you'll get about one hour of music on this card. With the internal and external together, that's about two hours of very high quality (CD quality) MP3 music. Yes, the 32 MB card is less expensive, but the convenience of not having to change-out the card in a half hour is well worth the few extra dollars. You really can't go wrong.
27 Great capacity
This card has the largest capacity available in all the cards I've seen. I use it with my Rio500 MP3 player, and it just slipped right in and worked. No problems, no hassles. I hear they difficult to come by, but I ordered mine from Amazon on a Saturday, and had it by the following Wednesday. These 64mb ones will go quick, since most cameras and MP3 players only have one slot, you have to fill it with the card with the most capacity.
28 64 Meg Card Isn't Worth It
The 64meg memory card is the largest capacity smart media card available but it is way too pricy. You can buy two 32 meg cars for 56$ each and it would be cheaper than buying one 64meg card! It would make no sense to buy this product. I get one hour of music on 32 megs for my Diamond Rio 500, I'm just going to go buy 2 32meg cards instead of this expensive and over rated 64meg POS
29 1000 PICS in a match book that is as thin as a dime !
This card enables me to take about 1000 pictures (at the lowest resolution) with my Olympus 460. This is the largest smartmedia card you can currently buy and only has one minor draw back. The panorama feature is not available on Olympus cameras that have a panorama feature since this is not an Olympus brand card. Over all this is a great product. With such a high data capacity card as smartmedia USB reader is almost a must. I can download the 64 MB that are on this card in under 2 Minutes with a USB reader. Before with the serial connection that came with my camera it took (or felt like) hours!
30 This is probably what you're looking for
If you have a SmartMedia device, you'll end up wanting morestorage space. 64MB is the highest capacity SmartMedia currentlyavailable, and this particular one is the least expensive.
If you use your SmartMedia device more than every-so-often, you'll want an external USB reader/writer because they are extremely fast and don't require you to plug your camera/MP3-player/PDA into your computer (if you don't have USB, you can get a parallel port version). If you decide to get one, keep in mind that your SmartMedia device must be standards compliant... most cameras are, but the only compliant MP3 player that I know of is the Nomad II.
Also, not many people are aware that SmartMedia cards eventually wear out... it's a good thing that most are rated at 100,000 read-write cycles. ...
