How many pictures will it store?.......2004-11-06

How many pictures will it store? It is the most commonly asked question from digital camera enthusiast but usually the question that is the most difficult to get a straight answer about. Well, considering I worked in the memory industry for over 7 years I can help clarify this perplexing question and do so unbiased as I have since changed industries.

The Viking 64MB SmartMedia Card, like most 64MB cards, will store on average 71 pictures when used with a 2 megapixel camera, 53 images when used with a 3 megapixel camera, 32 pictures when used with a 4 megapixel camera, 25 images when used with a 5 megapixel camera, and 20 pictures when used with a 6 megapixel camera. These numbers are based off the assumption that you are going to shoot your images at the highest quality JPEG setting available for the camera and understand that they are estimates and may be off by as much as 10 percent due to numerous factors including the complexity of the scene being shot and the compression algorithm used by your specific camera.

I truly hope this review was helpful to you in determining whether this card is the right capacity for your specific needs.

Heavy EBAY auction lister gives "Two Thumbs Up" to this card.......2003-11-16

Between listing items at home and at a high-volume bookstore, we probably list about 300 items a week. And for that, I take sometimes 1,000s of pictures - each week! This card has been continually used for some two years now, working five days a week - with not a single problem.

Each of our images is under 350k for EBAY aauctions and I can save 292 high quality images at a time - and they always turn out well. I highly recommend this card. For our day-to-day jobs - we will only use this Viking card. It has never failed us. I use it at home. It's taken in and out of the camera many, many times, and it just keeps on working. It really is our workhorse.

BE AWARE.......2003-07-12

I went on vacation, made 81 photos with my 3020 Olympus camera and then when I wanted to transfer my photos, the card gave me a formating error. So now all my pictures are lost. Will not buy this product again!

Skeptical at first, but...a definite value!.......2003-04-03

I purchased my 64MB Viking SmartMedia card along w/my (2MP) Olympus D-510 Zoom digital camera. For the past year, I've used both products w/out problem. While I was initially skeptical of the Viking product (due to the comparably low price), I've been extremely satisfied. I've never lost pictures (or video) or had any trouble w/data transfer. It does its job. In fact, I'm so satisfied w/my experience that I've just ordered an additional 128MB Viking SmartMedia card (for additional storage on an upcoming photo-intensive vacation). While experiences w/different cameras may vary, I definitely recommend this product.

Note: For most 2MP digital photographers, I think the 64MB card is probably plenty; however, at the low prices Viking offers, I'm choosing to get an additional card as a "failsafe" (in the event that I run out of space) so that I don't ever have to lug my laptop w/me on vacation. If you're using something beyond 2MP you'd probably be better off just considering the 128MB card, though.

Excellent Memory Card at the right price.......2003-03-27

This card works well with my Olympus D380 Digital camera. Olympus only gives 8mb with their camera which would be about the equivalent of one roll of standard film. This memory card can hold 128 photos at high resolution and probably twice that at lower resolution. This would be the equivalent of 5 1/3 rolls of film undeveloped. And there is no compromise of image quality by buying this card. I'm 100% pleased with this
