5.0 out of 5 stars Just Get It...You'll Love It!!!, June 16, 2007
By 
dcinDC "dcinDC" (Washington, DC United States) - See all my reviews
I bought this for my Canon digital camera. The camera shoots photos up to 8Megs and does high-resolution video as well. I originally had a 256MB San Disk SD Card in there because that used to be considered a BIG memory card. It worked fine, but I was constantly pulling it out to dump the photos or videos onto my computer so I could take more. At an event where I was taking lots of photos, I would literally run off to dump the card and I would limit my use of the video since it takes a lot of memory.

I finally bought this Kingston card because I saw it on sale. It works fine as well and I can't tell you how nice it is not to have to constantly be worried about whether I've got enough memory left and will miss a photo or video shot! This thing has so much memory that at times when I'd usually be thinking about dumping the data onto my computer I find I can still take hundreds of photos or lots of video (after all, it's about 10x more memory)! This has really been a big improvement for me and I'm really glad I bought it.

With the price of memory these days this card is extremely affordable. If you're working with anything less and/or ever worry about having enough memory in your camera, I would just go ahead an invest in this. It's really worthwhile!

NOTE: I'm writing here about the plain Kingston 2GB SD card. I've noticed Amazon sometimes groups reviews of similar items so you might see this posted under one of the premium or high-speed Kingston 2GB SD card listings. My only comment is that I've never noticed any significant lag or delay using this in my digital camera for either photos or video. If it's there compared to the premium cards, I can't tell the difference. This includes when there are few photos on the card and when the card is almost full. YMMV.

2.0 out of 5 stars Be CAREFUL when purchase from this page., March 27, 2008
Amazon made a horrible mistake, they gather the reviews from all kinds of kingston SD in one page. so when u look at Kingston 2GB SD, u will be surprised ! that it is being ranked 4.5 stars and people are speaking about its high speed even it has a 1.5 MB/Sec write speed! these high ranking comes from Kingston 2GB Ultimate !!!! I was fooled by this. So be CAREFUL, the reviewers here are speaking about totally different products.

1.0 out of 5 stars beware of counterfeit memory cards, August 18, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
To the people who have posted that the card does not work or has damaged their computer: you probably bought a fake. Counterfeit memory devices will usually reveal themselves fairly quickly: you will have trouble formatting and file transfer will break down, and your computer will be unable to read the device.

The only safe way to buy memory is from a well established vendor (like Amazon) or direct from manufacturer. I have found that out the hard way. The seller here, importer520, buys directly from China, not from US distributors, so draw your own conclusions. If you buy anything like this from an Amazon external vendor's storefront, you are taking a big risk.

Rule of thumb for memory devices: if it is unusually cheap, assume it is fake.
