Every digital camera has different ways to store pictures. Some don't even allow the use of memory cards and only rely on the built-in memory. The ones you listed all hold the same amount of memory, but it depends on which camera you have that will tell you which card to get. If you're lucky you might have a camera that uses two types of cards i.e. Smart Media and Secure Digital. Another type of memory card is Sony's proprietary memory sticks. They are longer and are used mainly by Sony cameras and other type of gadgets. Just check your own memory card and it will tell you which type to buy OR read your manual and see if your camera can take two different types of cards. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
