Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Lexar Media 128 MB Memory Stick (MS128-281)
Customer Review: Incompatible with Sony Products And Sony Makes No Guarantee
Summary: 1 Stars
I have a Sony Digital Printer (DPP-SV77) and a Sony Camera, both of which use the memory stick. I also have a Dazzle memory stick reader. My first trouble with the Lexar Memory stick came with the dazzle reader. You have to download a flash-bios upgrade in order to read the Lexmar product (the reader works fine with sony memory sticks).Next, while the Lexar stick works in my camera, and now works in my memory stick reader, none of my memory sticks work in the sony printer (with a memorystick reader).
Remarkably, Sony customer service AND technical support tell me that Sony does not gurantee compatibility with non-sony memory sticks (even though they advertise that you can print directly from memory sticks, they apparently mean "sony" memory sticks). This is incredible since they LICENSE the memorystick name and receive royalties from Lexar for the sale of Lexar memory sticks.
Just be warned. Sony products are expensive and sony memory sticks are very expensive. Don't be fooled into thinking there is an alternative memory stick. Even though I said it was just like a computer company saying their computers dont work with 3m floppies, Sony tells me that floppies and memory sticks are different.
There is no alternative memory stick that is supported by Sony, and it is hit or miss whether the Lexar stick works. (Lexar told me to call Sony since the stick works in the camera, maybe it was a known printer issue. Sony told me the can't guarantee compatibility even if their advertisements say the product works with memory stick (and not "sony memory stick"). So Lexar gave me the number of a supervisor, who has not returned my phone calls or my E-mail.
