Got this card five months ago for my Canon PowerShot S2 IS camera and I love it.When I first inserted card into my camera I got an error but once I formatted it in the camera it has worked perfectly with regular use.Works fine with my Sandisk Card reader as well as the built-in card reader on my laptop.I am very pleased with this product especially as it allows me to capture lots of pictures and video clips whenever I need to.
This card is a bit of a renegade in that it does not conform to SD standards. Pre-SDHC era devices were not designed to address cards over 2GB, so don't expect device manufacturers to support this card. I have saved thousands of photos to this card with my old Canon S2 and it has been wonderful. Do some research to see if it works with your device before buying. Even if it does work, it is probably not a good idea to trust storing your entire photo collection on it. That said, the card is non-standard, has definite quirks, and requires care to use. I'm happy because I've been able to use this card to keep my old camera going but the average non-technical consumer may be better served by buying a new device.
The write time is very fast, and it is very helpful when shooting action shots with my D80. It saves 10MP files just as fast as my 2GIG version saves 6MP files on my D40.I highly recommend this SD Card. I already had the 2GIG version, so I expected the 4GIG to work the same, and it does. You will not be disappointed.
This will do it. Now I've got the space to store the files I cart around, and room for MP3s as well. I was looking for a 4 gb card that would work with Windows mobile 5. The cost was a little high, but it has been worth it to me.
I've also moved on to SDHC cards, which are faster. It is starting to show its age and perhaps I've reformatted it too many times, but I still use it for shots when I don't need to rapid fire. I bought my camera (Nikon D80) nearly a year ago and this was the first memory card I used. I've taken thousands of photographs using this card and it kept up pretty well, even in RAW mode. For an off-brand, this card was great.
