Summary: They dont even make these this small anymore
Review: 16 MB grow up and get a 128 MB

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not that great
Review: I gave it a three for two reasons the first reason i took off a point was because it took me about 35 minutes to get the memory card out of its package. You better hope you have good scissors and if you die expect to spend a good 10minutes tryin to get it out. The second reason a took off a point is because i bought it for my mp3player which is 32megs. With this memory card you get to add 4 songs. and that's 4 short songs... if you can only add 4 songs onto your player...it seems like a rip-off but if the 64mg is too much for you buy this one and get poor quality songs and you can fit more than 4.

Summary: 244 Pictures, One Chip.
Review: I have recently purchased the Olympus D450Z digital camera, which uses this kind of picture memory chip. At a fraction of the price that you find in camera stores, you can have a completely compatible memory device for your Olympus camera (and I'll bet for other brands using SmartMedia as well!) and money left over for the extra NiMH batteries you'll have to keep charged. Worth getting is the Olympus PCMCIA adapter (available through Amazon) which allows the chip to mimic a Hard Drive on any machine with a Type II ATA slot. For USB machines you can find any of a host of readers, but check the reviews first!

Just as an aside -- I sneakily used this chip to move a powerpoint presentation from one laptop to another this week, and it was amazingly smooth! This could easy replace floppy technology in machines that don't have the space for an inboard Zip drive. Cool!

Summary: Good moderately priced card
Review: I have the older Olympus 400Z which only goes up to 1280x960. This 16MB card holds almost 80 pictures at the highest compression. That is plenty for casual use and vacations when I combine it with my existing 8MB card.

It even works in "sequence" mode even thou the Olympus docs say that only Olympus cards will work.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great for Cameras unable to use the larger capacity cards.
Review: I just ordered a couple more of these before they don't make them anymore! As to the comment about 'grow up and get 128MB', the reason these are still available is that a lot of older perfectly usable digital camera's are unable to address more than 16MB. My Olympus being one of them. This is a known problem with Smartmedia. Personally I don't mind having a bunch of smaller cards anyway, since this way I don't have all my eggs in one basket. 16MB on a 1.3 Megapixel Camera still gives just over 70 pictures in the High Resolution mode anyway so it's not like the capacity isn't decent.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A good buy!
Review: I use this cards for my Olympus digital camera. They're reliable and haven't failed to me a single time. Thay have a very good price and you can use them with other SmartMedia devices. Really good.

Summary: works perfectly everytime.... except when I messed up
Review: My son also uses these. He has never had a problem in over 2 years... and he uses them alot. I accidently saved a graphics
file on my 16MB SanDisk... and my camera reported that the card may be bad. Notice your camera will say may be... (Oympus does)
because after I inserted the disc into my floppy A drive .... with adapter... and seen what was on disc... i noticed that i had accidently saved a folder containing a bunch of pictures from
a previous batch... I rename all my folders when placing them on my desktop... so i was able to identify this "surprise" folder...
as being used at a much earlier date.
I think a lot of bad reviews... on electronic products are due
to customer ignorance. Many times I thought i was dead right...
and could not make an error... (before this my last error was on
march 36, 1991.) As you can see if you read closely I never make mistakes and can go many years error free. San Disks... work
every time... when used properly. Great Product.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great product
Review: Recently purchased an Olympus D-360L. The SanDisk card works great with it. Using the standard quality mode for the camera the SanDisk card will hold about 72 pictures.
