Are memory cards supposed to come with digital cameras?

digital cameras
lidlchris asked:


I just bought a used digital camera for my grandmother… I naturally assumed that all cameras come with a memory card because mine did (I have a cannon)

After talking to my mom she said that the her brand new camera didn’t come with one…

So i guess I’m trying to figure out if I was scammed or if it is common for digital cameras NOT to come with a memory card.

Thanks!

    no, you usually have to pay for them separately
    its really stupid, and pointless.
    unless, there either really nice, or they just kinda come with it.

    Depends upon what you buy… I bought a Canon and it came with a 32 mb memory card… basically it allowed you to take 6 pictures on the best settings (highest resolution).

    You’ll have to buy your own 1 gb card or better. In the US, they are relatively inexpensive, I bought a 2 gig card for $12.

    So I don’t think you were scammed… the larger memory card is extra. However, I’m surprised your g’ma didn’t give you the memory card she bought for the camera…

    Not all digital cameras come with memory cards… and if they do then they usually aren’t very big.
