Any "cheap" memory card for ricoh rdc-1?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Imaging Resource Discussion : One Thread

My brother has the ricoh rdc-1..and ricoh says it is only compatable with their propriety memory card which normally sells for 300-500 bucks! The heck wit that I tell you..he will never pay that..anyone had any luck with a more reasonable priced card for this camera? Any sound help is appreciated!

Sorry for the slow response! Unfortunately, the RDC-1 came out before the standards for removable memory cards were fully established, with the result that the RDC-1 does only work with the Ricoh cards. (DON'T try plugging another type of card in it, you're likely to damage the card, camera, or both!) (The voice of painful experience speaking!)
