such as my camera, with my sandisk media, im not able to take panaramic pics or use some of the other features i have on my camera. its only available when i use an olympus media card.
and YES!!!!!!!!! speed matters. get the fastest you can afford. the worse thing is snapping a pic and waiting for your camera to save it while another great pic flies by you.
on its highest resolution and most detailed file format, my camera takes a good 15 secs to save pics :ugh:
but with normal picture taking, i still have to wait 1.5-3 seconds.

SmartMedia have a 16MB, 64MB and 128MB, cards. Use a card reader rather than just plugging in the camera and draining the batteries to download. 1200+ pics @ 480X640 on the 128 card.

you can also use a PCMCIA CF reader to down load pics... that is if you have a laptop I guess :chuckles:
