Olympus is releasing the high-speed Type M+ (plus) xD-Picture Card in April 2008. It will be one-and-a-half times faster than its predecessor Type M series, pictured above, and will be compatible with all Olympus digital cameras that use Type M Series xD-Picture Cards, including the new digital compact cameras (Stylus, Stylus SW, FE-Series and Ultra Zoom).
“The demand for faster media with higher speed performance is being driven by developments in advanced video-recording functions in digital still cameras,†said John D. Blakeslee, business manager, digital memory products, Olympus Imaging America Inc.
