The absolute largest capacity SD card which your camera can use is 512MB. Your camera is only a 6MP model, so that size will still hold plenty of images even at the highest recording quality settings (approx 183 images at 6MP Fine quality setting, 311 at 6MP Normal quality and if you dial it down to 4MP you're looking at 305 and 498 respectively. 4MP will still produce perfectly good image quality for prints up to A4 size).

You can no longer easily find SD cards of that low a capacity in most shops, but they are widely available online. As you can't wait that long, I suggest that you join your local FreeCycle group and post a request for one (your first posting must be an offer, but it can be for anything at all, and once posted you can immediately post a request). Plenty of people have obsolete cameras lying around and even stacks of old low capacity memory cards which they are often happy to give away.

You can also download a free .pdf format user manual by clicking here, courtesy of Retrevo.

I hope that my speedy, free, and comprehensive reply has been of use to you, and that you can take a moment to rate my answer.

When i put a sd card in my vivicam T027 it says the card is full

What kind of card is it? If it's an SD card, try sliding the little slider on the side of it to unlock it, so it's not read-only

SD Card Problems with Vivitar Vivicam 5118!

What size is the memory card. If it's larger than 4GB then it won't work in the 5118.
Try using another card. Don't format it in your computer but do format it in the camera before trying to take pictures.

Need make model of sd card for vivitar vivcam 3188

It is compatible with any brand of SD card up to 1 Gb size. To look at the brand/model of your SD card, open your camera, remove the SD card and check the labels. It doesn't have it's own brand of SD card, so depending where you bought it, the store can just put any brand of SD card into it.

I purchases a vivitar vivicam 8025. Unfortunately the instructions got thrown away. I've only taken a few pics and the camera says "memory full insert sd memory card to transfer and take more...

You can download the manual from the manufacturer's web site at
http://www.vivitar.com/files_products/13/VC8025%20User%20Manual.pdf

The camera needs a memory card in order to save pictures. You can take pictures without one and view them on the screen, but those pictures are lost when you turn the camera off.

SD card for Vivitar ViviCam 4000

hi there
i'm afraid the biggest card you can use on this camera is 512 mb, which should give you about 150 pics at medium quality.

if this was helpful please leave feedback

"This card can not be used"

I experienced the same problem with a 1Gb card. The Vivicam 4000 only supports SD cards no larger than 512Mb. My solution to the problem was to simply repartition the SD card into two equal 512Mb partitions using Cute Partition Manager...http://www.cutepm.com. You should be able to do much the same thing except you will have to create 4-partitions, each no larger than 512Mb. When doing so, use the FAT 16 format option. As a word of caution, after repartitioning, do not use the fomat option on your camera, or it will restore it to a single partition 2Gb format. Also, when using whichever partitioning software you choose, be sure that you have selected your SD card, and not your C-Drive. Hope this is as successful for you as it was for me.
