FAST and reliable! March 6, 2007 14 out of 15 found this review helpful
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.
An Extraordinary Memory Card June 10, 2007 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I replaced my Sandisk SD card with this and really noticed the difference. No stalling or stopping when taking movies. A great card. I use it in my Canon S3 and wouldn't use anything else. Highly recommended.
No shutter lags any more! January 31, 2007 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I thought I have a shutter lag on my Leica V Lux1. Not since I bought this SD card. Very fast, blazing!
Amazing speed! April 11, 2007 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Got this for my 10 megapixel Canon G7. The difference from a regular SD card was much more than I'd hoped. 20 MB/sec. min. read-write speed is amazing. This card's speed allows the G7 to unleash its Digic III processor, and will snap off continuous shots(finest setting,no flash or cont. AF) until the memory is full with absolutely no lag...approx. 3-4 shots/sec. Regular card stopped to write after 6 shots. Play back time is now almost instant and shutter lag has all but disappeared. If you've been considering a G7, it is a better camera than most reviews say it is, despite its limitations (no RAW, etc.) I suspect some of the reviews would have been much better if they had used a card as fast as the Sandisk Extreme III. As a bonus, you get a licenced disk of RescuePRO in the box to retrieve erased data from media. Worth the extra money.
From a digital photographer's thoughts: July 14, 2007 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Excellent card. Recommendation: A+ Pros: Large, secure, and fast Cons: You pay for the large, secure, and the fast!
Opinion: Ok, here's the deal. I bought two of them when a bought my canon s3, because for a heavy duty camera like that, you can't bother with cheap, slow, "ecconomical" trash. I found these cards to be everything as described (there was one note, not really a problem. Just remember that ALL cards are set at an estimated value. What i mean is that this card is rated a 2gb, but is actually 1.8gb. All cards are like this, but just take note). If you are willing to pay, you will be satisfied.
Conclusion: If you can justify the price, buy it!
