5 out of 5 stars Speedy Card   November 16, 2008

I was quite pleased to find such a speedy card at such a reasonable price. Instantaneous writing. Highly recommended.


5 out of 5 stars What a bargain!   November 16, 2008

I can't believe 4 GB for this cheap! I bought 6 cards for a vacation to Arizona with some trepidation - hey if the cards failed in the field when am I getting back to the Grand Canyon again? They worked great! I take pictures on a tripod so I work slow - can't testify to speed but I never had to wait to take the next shot. Have had them for a short period of time but no problems so far.

I bought this to replace my Sandisk II 1GB card which costed ~$100 at the time. This 4GB card costed me <$16 (incl. shipping) and allows me to shoot RAW freely. Speed wise it is very decent. No complain there. After all, I made a conscious decision to buy this 133x card rather than a faster one. Can't give it a lower mark for not being faster, can I? Usage wise, I have not experienced any problem since I bought the card a month ago. I was a little skeptical about Transcend brand (vs. SanDisk, for example) at first but Amazon reviews suggest similar dissatisfactory rate so I guess the qualities are similar. I have used this card w/ my camera (Rebel XT) in 90+F Southern California weather and so far not observed any anomaly (data lost) as some reported. All in all, I am very satisfied with this purchase.


3 out of 5 stars Cheap, high capacity   October 16, 2008

This is a good card considering the price. After about 1000 shots over a few weeks, I did encounter an error on my 40D while shooting that required me to reformat the card and lose about 20 shots. Thankfully I was able to redo the shots, but this incident doesn't give me much confidence in this card.

As others have said it does not seem that this card is actually 133x speed.

I've been using the Transcend 2GB version of this card for a year now with no issues on my Nikon D200. I recently moved to this card and its as reliable as the previous one. No issues yet. Its not the fastest card around but for the price, its not too bad. Recommended!
