Largest memory stick for Sony DSC-F707

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.dcameras (More info?)

Hi there all,

I would like to know if the Sony DSC-F707
http://www.sel.sony.com/SEL/consumer/ss5/home/digitalstillcameras/cyber-shotrtm/dsc-f707_specs.shtml
can use larger capacity memory sticks than 128Mb. If it can, what is the
maximum??
I have not been able to easily find this info. out. I will assume this
camera cannot use memory stick Pro because it is an old model.

Can someone please confirm/correct my understanding....
This is my current understanding. Memory stick is limited to 128Mb. A newer
version of memory stick contains 2 x 128Mb (256Mb total) but can only use
128mb at a time before removing the card and switching to the other side for
the other 128Mb. This is a workaround for older non memory stick pro
devices.


Thanks

Jo D

You are correct. The 717 (which came out before Memory Stick Pros) are
able to use the large "Pro" sticks, but not the 707.

There are a few vendors that offer a 128x2 stick. You may want to consider
this option...

Actually, the 2x128MB is called a Memory Stick Select.
