3.0 out of 5 stars Not Worth the Price Premium, March 20, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Kodak 64 MB CompactFlash Picture Card (Personal Computers)

This card works fine, but here is the bitter truth.

The core of all the cards (known in technical terms as the "controller") are made by only a few DRAM manufacturers. Those handful of DRAM manufacturers then sell the "controllers" to the major flash card manufacturers (i.e. SanDisk, Kodak, Olympus, and Viking). The flash card manufacturers then simply throw some plastic casings on the controllers, slap on a label, and ship the cards. As long as the flash card manufacturer is reputable, has a good warranty, and has been around for over 5 years; you will be just fine.

What I am trying to get at? I simply want to make it clear that you should not buy a card based solely on the fact it is made by Kodak. Check the pricing against the other major manufacturers (i.e. SanDisk, Viking, etc.) and then make your decision.

5.0 out of 5 stars useful reliable memory cards, January 26, 2001

I use this 64-meg memory card in my Kodak DC4800 camera, in my HP Handheld (660LX) computer, AND in my old Kodak DC50 camera also. (My handheld computer and DC50 camera both require an adapter.) Works great -- I have not encountered a single problem.

This card can hold about 65 pictures in the best-quality JPG format from my DC4800 camera. When shooting in the highest-quality mode (TIFF format), I can get only about 10 pictures on this card. For those times when I shoot in the TIFF mode, I bought the bigger 128meg Kodak card which holds twice as much.

I have a Digital Wallet 6-gig storage device onto which I download pictures from the chip when I'm on the road, and as should be expected - this Kodak card works fine there too.

These cards come pre-formatted for Windows but you can reformat them for Mac computers.

These great Kodak cards are reliable ...
