Hi all,

I'm looking at a digital camera, and it uses Memory Stick media, but I see there are places that sell Memory Stick and Memory Stick PRO, what is the difference? Can a camera that uses MS also use MS Pro? Thanks for your input.

MS pro has faster transfer rates and higher capacities, at a premium.
Any of the latest Sony cameras will take both MS and MS Pro, so assuming you are buying new - both should be compatible. If you're getting an old or second hand model, maybe not. Check dpreview.com for the specific camera.
