Answer 2

It depends on which Optio model you have.  There are two of models listed on dpreview.com that are 12 mp.  

The S12  uses SD cards, SDHC ( this is a high capacity card and they are quite expensive) and MMC cards.  All are perfectly good formats and the SD and MMC are pretty affordable.

The A40 is also a 12 mp optio and it uses either the SD, or SDHC cards for memory.
