Interesting. For camera batteries, and also Compact Flash cards I
make labels with a Brother P-Touch labeler. They are pretty thin
plastic films and there is not a tight fit in the camera. I am not
sure there is enough clearance where the Micro SD card fits into its
adapter, so I have been mentally rejecting this solution.
Maybe it is time to try, carefully.
