xD picture card

Post by ColdFusion »

Hello,

Quick question ... will an olympis xD-Picture card work in a FujiFilm camera ? They both take xD-Picture Cards, but there are different brand names so i dont know.

Thanks :)
Merry Christmas

Put the card in the new camera and format it - from the camera. Should be good to go.
anything is possible - nothing is free

The only thing different about a "branded" Olympus xD card is that Olympus is the only one that will support the panoramic mode in Olympus cameras. So if you don't have an Olympus camera, not a big deal anyhow. Yes, xD is xD.

I just got an Olympus FE 100. 4 megapixel. Nice for the money!
