It uses an SD memory card (like most point and shoot digital cameras). The new version does not use the Compact Flash anymore.

Have you checked the specs on the memory card you are using? Some of the faster cards are not that compatible with the camera.

The camera does not come with a memory card. It takes the standard SD form factor card. I purchased the class 10 type so the camera would perform at its optimum when recording video and multi shot. The quality of the camera pics and the built in features are excellent.

haven't looked into that yet but i will be taking the camera to a friend of mine that works at a local ritz camera shop. i am hoping he will be knowlege able enought to figure out which memory card can be used. failing that i would think going to the cameras official website "should" provide the info or maybe a link to cantact them and ask questions. i know pc magazine also has a help section.. they might know

With this camera I bought the 7 day shop professional high speed secure digital high capacity SD HC memory card - class 10. It has been superb with the camera and was a competitive price - mine is 32GB though - which is more than enough for me.I hope this helps.Paul

It uses SD cards. They're available up to 2gb, which is the largest size this camera can use. Be careful not to get SDHC (high capacity) cards, as they will NOT work, even in the 2gb size. I've used 512mb and 2gb SD cards, both PNY brand, with success. They aren't fancy high speed cards, but I don't notice any objectionable delay in writing to the card.

This camera does NOT come with an SD card. I used my old one, a 2GB. It holds only 12 minutes of video empty, and about 450 pictures.

I have been using a Sandisk 4GB SDHC (class 2 speed), and a Sandisk 8GB SDHC Extreme III (class 6 speed) with this camera and both seem to work fine. I've noticed that some retailers claim in their "specifications" sections that this camera can only use cards up to 2GB (not SDHC), but I haven't found this to be the case. I'm not sure if I'll actually be able to get the full 4-8GB storage capacity out of my cards, but compatibility hasn't been a problem. Hope this info helps.

I used a memory card, but it was only 32GB SD. I would guess that card would be ok, but I don't know for sure.I think you will be disappointed in this camera as the included software is poor, and streaming doesn't work.

Not an expert in this area. This is my husband's camera, and we just got an 8GB card because it was on sale.

An SD card I think. It's not a cf card. This camera was a disapointment to me.

Check your cameras booklet to see what memory it accepts. It may also say at the memory card slot what type cards it uses.

This camera uses SD memory cards. For best results, you should probably use HCSD Class 10 cards, but any SD card should work.

This camera uses SD or SDHC memory cards. The memory card is not included, but it does come with enough internal memory to store a few photos.
