Thanks alot San Disk. Well, no need to say more, this thing works great. I decided to purchase this item because I needed to get SD memory for my g/friends digital camera, so I chose this one because of the price and the brand. SanDisk is known for their memory. I will buy another one but with more space anyday.
The card has a five year warranty HOWEVER, I called the manufacturer who told me they no long make this product and there are no replacements available for them to send me, so in other words, I am OUT OF LUCK. It was only about a year old, so I received a new card quickly from SanDisk. That was a nice gesture, but I really didn't need anything else. However, one day it was no longer recognized by my Olympus camera. If you're going to buy one of these cards, be aware they are no longer being replaced by SanDisk, so the 5 year warranty is basically useless. Now a year later-- same thing has happened.
Well, I guess you get what you pay for. I got a really great deal on a 128mb SanDisk SmartCard through Amazon. It could not be reformatted either. They offered to send me another product (not for the camera, but just something else of the same value).
love it. the 128 is much faster and easy to format than my old one. GET SANDISK NOT LEXAR, THEY BREAK ALL THE TIME. just got this one at sears, and was only $20 so i grabbed it. the Canon A400 i have only came with 16mb so i needed more space. go out and buy one today.
So the difference in speed appears to be negligible if anything. When I began searching for a 1GB card I noticed SanDisk touted its Ultra II card as being very fast in transferring data to the card--over 9 megabytes per second. The plain vanilla SanDisk 1GB is usually about 20-30 dollars cheaper than the 1 GB San Disk Ultra II. I've taken hundreds of pictures, dumped them from the camera to my hard drive, and have had no problems of any kind. I went back and looked at the transfer rate for this original SanDisk, and it claimed a rate of "up to 10 megabytes" per second.
Besides, the transfer speed is only critical when you're using the continuous shooting mode, which I seldom use. This is the memory card that came with my Pentax 6.1 megapixel camera. At the highest quality JPEG setting, its capacity is about 40-45 pictures.One thing I am wondering about is the speed. The price difference is not, however.
However, it may not work with all electronic devices and you must read information about your particular product before buying this. I hope my review of this product will help other people before buying this. This is an excellent product and would recommend it to anyone. Also, I am not 13,but didn't feel much like logging into my account to review this product.
