Definition: The storage card in a digital camera is it's film, it's the removable storage device which holds images taken with the camera (a few low-end digital cameras don't have removable storage cards but instead have a built-in flash RAM unit). When the card is full it can be removed and another card inserted. The memory on these cards is non-volatile-m that is, they don't lose their images when they are removed form the camera.
The images can be later downloaded from the card, and when the images are erased from the card it is ready to be reused. These cards are good for a lot of reuses-one manufacturer just warranted their cards for a minimum of 1,000,000 images. Four types of memory cards exist at this time: Compact Flash, Smart Media, Intel Miniature Card and PCMCIA. Compact Flash type cards are used by many digital camera manufacturers and when placed in an adapter, can be inserted in the PCMCIA slot of a computer. Smart Media Cards, also used in a number of cameras can be inserted into a floppy disk adapter (3. 5") and read as if they were a floppy. Yet another adapter allows them to be used in a PCMCIA slot.
