Hello,
I have bought an adapter micro sd xd adapter for an old finepix f10 photo camera. I have tried more micro sd card 2GB, 4GB, 8GB with this new adapter, but is is not working in my finepix f10. It is like unsuported, or unknown sd card. Is there a chance how to extend finepix f10 with micro sd card 8GB or at least 4GB?? Is there another possible adapter then the yellow one as mentioned ?? Thanks.
Regards,Branislav

Your camera can't Please don't try to put any SD card in your camera. It will destroy the camera. You camera only accepts xD cards. It is a complete different card size and works different.
There are xD micro drives, but I would not buy them. it is a very small HD and are not made for years. So if you find one, it is likely it is defect.
But if you can find a 1 Gb xD card, you can put lots and lots of pictures on it.
A:
Make sure you're using a supported memory card. See the table below for specifications:
Memory Card TypeMaximum Capacity
CompactFlash Card
(Type I and Type II--3.3V only)
8GB
Microdrive (3.3V only)
4GB
SD (Secure Digital)
2GB
MultiMediaCard
1GB
If you connect a compatible CompactFlash (CF) adapter that can read 8GB memory cards, you can also use the memory cards listed below (with a capacity up to 8GB):
A Fuji Finepix 2650 camera can't hold SD cards. It is made for xD picture cards only. I know there are adapters for xD camera's where you can put in a CD micro chip, but still Fuji won't give any guaranty this will work. And knowing the age go your camera, in such a adapter only SD micro cards would work and not the SDHC or SDXC micro cards.
If you do have a Kodak Z650 camera, your camera only can handle MMC and SD cards. If you bought a SDHC or a SDXC card it won't work. When there cards came out, some camera's could be upgraded with a new firmware, so they could handle the SDHC cards, but I can't find any firmware update for your camera.
There are some SD cards that go as high as 4 Gbyte, but most cards you now can buy from 2 Gbyte and up are SDHC.
Physical the cards look the same, but the addressing is different.
The problem is that your NuVue 560 Digital Photo Player is only compatible with SD cards, not
SDHC cards. You bought a larger card for your older Digital Photo Player, not
noticing that it was SDHC (or not knowing that it mattered). The new
card doesn't work, not because it or the Digital Photo Player is broken, but because
it's not compatible.
Cards up to 2Gb are generally SD.
Cards of 4Gb are generally SDHC.
Cards over 8Gb have to be SDHC.
(There are exceptions. Sometimes, manufacturers make 4Gb SDHC
cards but some have errors; they disable half of the chip and sell it
as 2Gb, but it's still SDHC. 4Gb cards are almost always SDHC because
they're cheaper, but 4Gb SD cards do exist. They are so rare that I've
even seen a guru on this site claim they don't. I did own one once, but
it was very expensive and turned out to be so unreliable that I had to
return it. I don't recommend
looking for one, because of the problems.)
Your solution is to go find a 2Gb card, and be extra sure that it
doesn't say "SDHC" on it. Ask around your friends: someone who has a camera that can use SDHC cards might have an older 2Gb card that they'd be willing to swap ;-)
The problem is that your camera will only read SD cards, not SDHC cards, I checked its specification. You found your 256Mb card too small and bought a replacement, not noticing that it was SDHC. The new card doesn't work, not because it or the camera is broken, but because it's not compatible.
Cards up to 2Gb are generally SD. Cards over 8Gb have to be SDHC. 4Gb cards can be either SD or SDHC, but are almost always SDHC because they're cheaper. I'm willing to bet that the 4Gb card you got is actually SDHC because 4Gb SD cards are so rare that I've even seen a guru on this site claim they don't exist. I did own one once, but it was very expensive and turned out to be so unreliable that I had to return it.
Your solution is to go find a 2Gb card, and be extra sure that it doesn't say "SDHC" on it. (If it does, it probably means that they made a 4Gb card, but there were some error locations and so they disabled half of it and packaged it as a cheap-brand 2Gb.)
Your camera uses xD cards, not SD. Now if you are using a micro-SD adapter, make certain that the cards you are using are 2GB or less standard micro-SD cards. Your camera will not work with 4GB or larger micro-SDHC cards as that format had not yet been invented when your camera came out.
Most new 4GB and larger cards are SDHC cards (look on the card). Although they look exactly the same as a standard SD card, they are not. Unfortunately, there is no way that these cards will work with your camera, as it was designed before the SDHC format came out. As you've dsicovered, 2GB and less are standard SD cards, and will work with your camera.
There were a few standard 4GB cards produced a few years ago, most notably by ADATA (I have one that I use in my A620). Unfortunately, these are rare now, and are somewhat expensive if found on eBay.
If all other cards work fine then you may have a faulty memory card.
Your camera should theoretically be able to handle an 8GB SDHC card (but only up to 2GB xD card) as it is an SDHC compatible camera, but I've encountered more than a few cameras in the past which were SDHC compliant but could only handle up to 4GB.
Most of these had firmware updates to enable up to 16GB SDHC but the Fuji S1000fd has no firmware update.
If you find that the SDHC card is fine after all then I'd suggest contacting Fuji for a definite say so as to whether they know of any issues with 8GB SDHC compatibility.
According to Samsung's page on this camera, the following memory can be used:
External Memory(Optional) : Micro SD (up to 4GB) Micro SDHC (up to 8GB)
4 GB is acceptable, but I think you do not have the correct type of card. You should be using a Micro SD or "Micro Secure Digital" (up to 4GB capacity) or a Micro SDHC or "Micro Secure Digital High Capacity" (up to 8 GB capacity) card. This is very different from an SD or SDHC card. These Micro cards are very small (smaller than your thumbnail) and are often packaged with an SD adapter card. Regardless if sold with or with out the adapter, the package should say Micro SD or Micro SDHC on it somewhere.
