 Built for Real-World Conditions December 10, 2006

I really like this card. It's made well for professionals in real-world conditions. The package comes with a free neoprene carrying pouch, a plastic hard case, literature, and a cd-rom for the recovery & back-up software programs.
As far as speed, I'm not sure how fast it is, but I'd say it's equal to another brand of 2GB SD card that's rated at 150x speed. Of course, your camera's processing speed also factors in.
In my 10 MP Panasonic DMC-FZ50 camera, the SanDisk 2GB Extreme III SD card gives me exactly 399 shots. This gets interesting: my Leica M8 gets exactly 539 shots at the finest jpeg setting!
So far, I have not had any data loss problems, and that to me is very important.
Fast Memory but the need could be questionable . December 15, 2007

Most Digital SLR's including those below 1000.00 dollars have an integrated buffer system that allows for minimum 3 shots per second. Because of this, the photos are not directly being written to the card immediately and this type of card is not needed. If you are shooting in burst mode - (As many shots continuously), then this card makes sense. Think of it as pouring water into a pitcher that has a hole in the bottom. if you fill the water faster than the water leaving the pitcher, you will need this card. It allow's the buffer memory to transfer more quickly to the card.
If you have a digital SLR and taking a shot every minute or so, you don't need this card. Go for an inexpensive SD card with more memory. It would be fine.
I would also recommend the Extreme card to someone who has a point and shoot camera since there is next to no buffer memory that transfer's the photo data to the card and the camera is more dependent on the write speed of the card.
Superfast and very secure! February 5, 2007

The card cannot be read in some readers IF yours is old. One of my computers was from Gateway in 2004-5 and could not read it but the other card readers could read it or you can just buy a cheap USB 2.0 reader to hook it to the USB port.
What else can I say? Nothing, really. Before, I used to take my external HDD of palm pilot size that also stores the files from the card directly using its built-in reader. But now, I can go out without worrying about running out of the memory. And, I use 7.1m pixel camera for still/movie shots. Downloading is super fast. And, I am glad that I chose "Ultra" SD.
No shutter lags any more! January 31, 2007

I thought I have a shutter lag on my Leica V Lux1. Not since I bought this SD card. Very fast, blazing!

You get what you pay applies when it comes to secure digital SanDisk memory cards. You can pay less, but if your using the card for photography you could loose a shot if you're using a standard(speed) sd card with a high(10 megapixel)digital camera. So the combination of speed and reliability, SanDisk stands behind their product with a lifetime guarantee, is well worth the slight premium you'll pay. Think about it like this, back in the day when we would pay a premium for our favorite film, over and over and... Well with this card(film)you pay once and it keeps giving.
