SDHC Memory Cards: It's a micro SDHC card, or Micro Secure Digital High Capacity. "Standard" SD cards max out at 2GB capacity, based on their classification and the controller used by SD-only devices. Most SD cards you'll find today are technically SDHC, with capacities between 4GB and 32GB. SDHC biggest feature is the high capacity, only in line with SD2.0 specifications and higher standards of SD devices to use SDHC.

SDXC Memory Cards: SDXC is an SD memory card format that is based on the SDA 3.0 specification. Today, SD and SDHC cards, which are based on the SDA 2.0 specification, can reach capacities up to 32GB.

CF Memory Cards: CompactFlash is a flash memory mass storage device used mainly in portable electronic devices. The format was specified and the devices were first manufactured by SanDisk in 1994.

Micro SD Memory Cards: microSD is a type of removable flash memory card used for storing information. SD is an abbreviation of Secure Digital, and microSD cards are sometimes referred to as µSD or uSD. The cards are used in mobile phones and other mobile devices.

xD Picture Cards: xD-Picture Card is a flash memory card format, formerly used in digital cameras made by Olympus and Fujifilm. The xD in the xD-Picture Card stands for eXtreme Digital.

UHS-II on microSD and SD Cards. It refers to something called ultra-high-speed bus, which in turn refers to the interface between the card and the device. 

                            

SD Memory Cards

stands for Secure Digital, which is a board developed by SanDisk and Toshiba Corp. The purpose of the SD Card is to improve the use of cards in mobile devices. ... In short, the microSD card is just a small external memory.

 

SDHC Memory Cards

"Standard" SD cards max out at 2GB capacity, based on their classification and the controller used by SD-only devices. Most SD cards you'll find today are technically SDHC, with capacities between 4GB and 32GB. The largest class is SDXC, or Secure Digital Extended Capacity, can range from 64GB to 2TB.

 

SDXC Memory Cards

The types can be split into three main categories; SDXC, SDHC and SD cards. SDXC (Secure Digital Extended Capacity) cards are the highest memory capacity and are typically made in sizes larger than 32GB.

 

 

CF Memory Cards

CompactFlash (CF) is a flash memory mass storage device used mainly in portable electronic devices. The format was specified and the devices were first manufactured by SanDisk in 1994. CompactFlash became the most successful of the early memory card formats, surpassing Miniature Card and Smart Media.

 

 

MicroSD 

Is a type of removable flash memory card used for storing information . SD is an abbreviation of Secure Digital, and microSD cards are sometimes referred to as µSD or uSD.

 

xD-Picture Card 

Is a flash memory card format, formerly used in digital cameras made by Olympus and Fujifilm . The xD in the xD-Picture Card stands for eXtreme Digital.

 

Memory Stick PRO Duo has the same SD-like form factor as the original Duo, but allows for much higher capacities and transfer speeds, about on par with SDHC cards. The highest capacity card is currently 16GB

 

CFast (also known as Compact Fast) is based on the Serial ATA interface. In November 2010, SanDisk, Sony and Nikon presented a next generation card format to the CompactFlash Association. The new format has a similar form factor to CF/CFast but is based on the PCI Express interface instead of Parallel ATA or Serial ATA.

 

A memory card reader is a device for accessing the data on a memory card such as a CompactFlash (CF), Secure Digital (SD) or Multimedia Card (MMC). Most card readers also offer write capability, and together with the card, this can function as a pen drive.

 

BMP

Short for "Bitmap." It can be pronounced as "bump," "B-M-P," or simply a "bitmap image." The BMP format is a commonly used raster graphic format for saving image files. It was introduced on the Windows platform, but is now recognized by many programs on both Macs and PCs.

 

 

GIF

is a bitmap image format that was developed by a team at the bulletin board service (BBS) provider CompuServe led by American computer scientist Steve Wilhite on June 15, 1987.

 

.JPG (or.JPEG) 

Stands for Joint Picture Experts Group. This is the most popular file type for digital photography. It handles millions of colors very well and allows for various levels of lossy compression.

 

 

PNG format 

Is a lossless compression file format, which makes it a common choice for use on the Web . PNG is a good choice for storing line drawings, text, and iconic graphics at a small file size. 

 

TIFF

Is a common format for exchanging raster graphics(bitmap) images between application programs, including those used for scanner images.

 

 

White balance (WB) 

Is the process of removing unrealistic color casts, so that objects which appear white in person are rendered white in your photo. Proper camera white balance has to take into account the "color temperature" of a light source, which refers to the relative warmth or coolness of white light.

 

ISO

The lower the ISO number, the less sensitive it is to the light, while a higher ISO number increases the sensitivity of your camera. The component within your camera that can change sensitivity is called “image sensor” or simply “sensor”.
