Perfect for Canon SD300 September 22, 2005
I use this card with Canon SD300 camera and have not had any problems described by other users. There is definitely a performance increase over regular cards because with this card i can record 640x480 movies without it ending prematurely due to slow write speed suffered by regular cards. I've used sandisk 256mb SD, kingston 512mb SD, kingmax 512mb MMC, and a-data 512mb MMC with the SD300. all of them can only record hi-res moive continuously for 40-60 seconds. With this highspeed kingston I can record continuously for 5 minutes, at which time the memory runs out.

Amazon Verified Purchase
It worked well for a bit, but now I get "Memeory Card Error" messages. Amazon has been great in exchanging it though. I may have just gotten a bad one.
UPDATE: I've had the new one for 6 months now, and it works great! I'd be at 5 stars if not for the prob with the first one, but it won't let me change it to 4 now.

When shopping for a larger memory card for my digital camera, I thought all SD cards were created equally. So, I chose this cheaper product from a off-brand manufacturer. The money I saved sure wasn't worth the 100's of pictures I lost when this card failed. Of course, the card had to fail on vacation, after we had taken many pictures. It was less than 2 weeks old when it failed, so I didn't even get much use out of it at all. I promptly returned it to Amazon when I got back from my vacation, but that won't replace my missing pictures. Don't take a chance with your memories because you want to save a few dollars. It isn't worth it.

I recently upgraded to a Canon Powershot, and needed a much bigger SD card. This one works well, and is pretty fast using my SanDisc port. Read more

Not reliable. Not worth. Away from it .
Memory card error & data loss. I couldn't feel the 'high speed' as mentioned. Away from it and recommend to have sandisk as what I have now. Read more

Do not buy SD/512-S for a Canon SD400
Normally Kingston has some of the most reliable products.

For whatever reason the Kingston 512MB High Speed SD Card isn't compatible with a Canon SD 400. Read more
