No, just type I & II Compact Flash cards.

But you could use it with something like this
http://virology-online.com/Products/MstickCF.htm (a memory stick to
compact flash adapter), again, a simple Google on "memory stick compact
flash adapter" should turn up a good selection.

I used a pcmcia adapter with my Smart Media cards with my old camera and
it wasn't too tough to figure out, but I have to say the instructions I
linked to in the first email had this $6.97 adapter up & running in
under 5 minutes.

If you decide to go with a pcmcia adapter a simple Google on "memory
stick pcmcia" turns up lots like this
http://www.adorama.com/IDSPCCA8.html?sid=11044724085203683 (a memory
stick pcmcia adapter).

Good luck!
