4.0 out of 5 stars Might not be worth the price premium, August 18, 2000

This review is from: Olympus 64MB SmartMedia Card (Personal Computers)

SmartMedia is sold under several brands. Olympus branded SmartMedia allows you to take "panorama" shots. Essentially, you take multiple shots while making sure to overlap edges. You then reassemble these multiple shots using the "Camedia" software that came with your Olympus camera. The difference is that when an Olympus brand SmartMedia card is used, your digital camera keeps exposure settings constant across these multiple shots; which makes for a consistent panorama when you reassemble the individual shots via your computer.

This is a nice feature, but not a feature most of us use often; for example, on a recent two week trip, I took 220 shots of which only 12 were panorama. If you are going to purchase multiple SmartMedia cards, you might be able to do with just one or two Olympus brand cards - especially since they cost more than other brands. I use two other brand SmartMedia cards, and save my Olympus brand cards for when panorama shots present (since you can switch the cards out at anytime - unlike traditional camera film).

Also to realistically determine what the price premium is, check prices for Olympus and other brand SmartMedia not only here, but also at other popular commercial sites.

Finding a Smart Media card for my Olympus camera is exceedingly difficult. This vendor provided exceptionally fast and accurate service as well as setting a reasonable price. I will be ordering another now that I know I'll be getting exactly what I need.

This memory card functions well with my Olympus Camedia D-360L camera, and allows about 300 High Quality pictures on one 64MB card. This type of memory card, however, has been discontinued by the manufacturer, and is somewhat difficult to find.
