Default Kodak DX 7440

My Kodak DX 7440 uses SD up to 512 MB. Does anyone know (the manual doesn't say) if it can use a 1GB card, or how I can find out if it does?

Thanks in advance.

This kinda points to 'No'...

You'd really want to simply send a quick question to the company though.
you'll get the definitive answer.

Not really! Many cameras manufacturers stop at
512 in their charts, probably because the charts
have not changed since the time 512 cards were the
normal maximum size. And a question may be
referred to some know nothing. My Nikon similarly
implied a 256 card was maximum but that isn't
true. Best bet is to just stick a 1 GB card in
and try it.

My point was that a question (via e-mail, costing $0.00) to the
manufacturer would be a definitive answer..

Yours is to go out and buy a 1 GB card ($50 on up, depending on
brand/quality) and hope for the best..

That about sum it up?

See the Kodak EASYSHARE DX7440 Zoom Digital Camera Accessories page,
http://www.kodak.com/eknec/PageQueri...q-locale=en_US,
it lists 2 different 1GB cards.

New porducts are coming out faster than the user manuals can be
updated.

Actually by clicking on a few links from the page mentioned you wind up
he

http://www.kodak.com/eknec/PageQueri...q-locale=en_US

which points to yes (a 1GB should work fine.)

Yes, you can. You could borrow a 1GB card.

Well, some people have friends who might have 1GB cards they could try.
Or a dealer might have one they would let him try in order to make a
sale. And with 1GB SD cards going for under $20 locally, it isn't a
large investment.
Now, the other question is, why? I have a DX6440 (about the same as the
7440), and it will put 306 pictures on a 256 meg card. Makes one wonder
at the rationale of buying a card that will have over 1200 pictures....

The consensus seems to be yes, the only possible problem I can
forsee which is rather remote is that due to its programming the
camera may see the 1G card as a 512M and only use that portion of it.

Nope. My point is that a quick answer that
confirms that 512 is the maximum may not be
correct. If you can get a response from someone
that actually has used a 1GB card, that would be
fine. I didn't suggest buying a 1 GB; there are
ways of trying one without cost. You can go to
Costco buy the card, try it, and if it doesn't
work return it to Costco for a refund.
