Digital Camera Memory Card Question!

[Frances999]

Hi

I have a Kodak DX7630 and a couple of "Kodak Multimedia" memory cards. I was looking at buying another but saw this on Amazon. It is 1GB so should hold a lot of photos (even at 6.1mp resolution) -- but will it work with my camera?

Thanks if you can help!!

Yep - The Kodak DX7630 takes SD and MMC cards.

Take a look at 7DayShop for good memory card prices too:

I've got a 512MB bytestor MMC card which was one of the reasons I've just ordered a new DX7630 (largely thanks to your recommendation - thanks!! ) because it says it would take SD or MMC. Still not clear about the advantages of buying a dock though! Can't wait for my new toy to arrive!!!

I did read that it took "Kodak SD cards" but I wasn't 100% sure it would take other makes!! You will love the camera.....it's great! I see you got it for £175 too -- what a great price. Have fun snapping!

Okay. Call me stupid but what exactly is the difference between the "SD" and "MMC" cards?? The only ones I have at the moment are "Kodak Multimedia" - MMC, I guess?

Thanks!

Here's some info I found about the two card formats:

Secure Digital (SD)

Supported by the SD Card Association (SDA), this compact type of memory card allows for fast data transfer and has built-in security functions to facilitate the secure exchange of content and includes copyright (music) protection which makes them more expensive than the similar MultiMediaCards which we will discuss next. SD cards have a small write-protection switch on the side, similar to what floppy disks have.​

MultiMediaCard/SecureMultiMediaCard/Reduced Size MultiMediaCard (MMC/SecureMMC/RS-MMC)

Supported by the MultiMediaCard Association (MMCA), MultiMediaCards have the same surface but are 0.7mm thinner than SD cards and have two pins less. Hardware-wise MMC cards fit in SD card slots and many, but not all, SD devices and cameras will accept MMC cards as well. Check out the specs before you buy. Two variants are SecureMMC, similar to SD, and Reduced Size MMC.​
