Sony MemoryStick Duo


OK, so i'm getting this camera courtesy of the mighty FreebieJeebies team.
Buy SONY DSCW215.CEH | 12mp digital camera - Digital Cameras | Comet

Comet website states that for memory it uses Sony's own Memory Stick Duo.
My question is, do I have to use Sony or will one of these be OK for it?
I'm not sure if the design is specifically married to it's own brand or not.
Amazon.co.uk: MemoryStick Duo - Electronics & Photo

I've just spotted an 8GB Sony at the bottom of that page actually which is about 1/2 the price as from Comet but for future reference are all those cards compatible ?

Any Memory Stick Duo would work with the camera. Same goes for other Sony's products, for eg i bought a Sandisk Memory Stick Pro Duo for my PSP, instead of the Sony's one, saving me loads of money

Beware of fake Memory Stick Pro Duo's from Fleebay, though

Cheers guys

Gonna go with the 8gb Sony at just over £20 I think.
Memory Stick PRO DUO/8GB Print + Adaptor: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo

This exact card is £50 from Comet !

At least I know now that i'm open to other makes if I come across the need to get more

Oh absolutely...
I would never buy memory cards etc from them, unless it was an emergency like need it that morning for a wedding or something.
The only reason i've ordered the camera from them is it's sale price, down from £239.99 to £99
