Memory Card Differences?

[jordancej]

Not sure if this is a stupid question or not. But i've seen on some of the Lexar SD Cards some say media on the card label while other dont. Will those still work on a digital camera?? (i have a Canon A520)

The ones that have on the card "Lexar 1GB SD Card" on it, the labels are white and blue.
The ones that says "Lexar Media 1GB SD" on it, the labels are green and yellow.

Thanks!

Both will work just fine as an SD card is an SD card. The only main difference in cards are typically speed in which they can read and write.

The only real exception to this is Olympus camera's and XD cards. Olympus camera's will only shoot in Panorama mode when using an Olympus branded xD card. IE, using a Sandisk or Fuji xD card, the camera won't allow panorama mode to work.
