Use any SD card camera with A2 USB host !!

[Floater]

Someone should sticky this (and maybe copy the pics locally), as this can remove most of the worries about camera and A2 compatibility.

If you have a camera that takes SD cards (as most do) invest in a new card instead of gambling on a card reader. the new SanDisk USB SD cards can be inserted directly into a USB slot and also work with the A2!!!



The card works just like any SD card, but can be bent in half to reveal a USB connector




... and it works directly in the A2




They aren't much more than the normal SD cards. I got a 1Gb card and it's also high speed (Ultra II)... also now I don't have to carry around my stupid proprietary camera cable to get my pictures onto my PC.

Another great buy for your A2 is a USB mini male to USB male conector



which allows you to connect your A2 to your PC without the cable (I have a USB extension cord on my PC's and I just carry the connector to use my A2)



I picked up a set of 6 common (all different) connectors and an extension cord from ebay, for about $10

..oh and if you were wondering what the mess on my A2 screen is - It's number 13
