5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Fast Card with Lifetime Warranty, June 27, 2007

This review is from: Lexar CF8GB133380 8GB Professional Series 133X CompactFlash Card w/ Write Acceleration (Personal Computers)

What can I say about this? It's a fast CF card and it's great to have 8G of room to shoot on my Nikon D200. I have several other Lexar cards (and a 4G card of the same model) and they all perform flawlessly just like my Sandisk Extreme III cards. Transfer rates to the PC are much faster with these Lexar 133x cards, though.



Scoring breakdown:

- Plus 5 stars for the card itself.

- Plus 5 stars to Adorama for getting the card to me in two days, even though it was shipped via USPS

- Plus 5 stars to Adorama for the great price

- MINUS several millions stars to Adorama for charging $5 shipping and then (as usual) shipping a fragile item in little a crushable (and crushed) bubble-envelope.

- MINUS another million stars to Adorama for not including the $40 rebate form with the card. If you bought this card in June, there's a rebate of $40. You can pull the form from Lexar's web site or from Adorama.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for high MP DSLRs., July 3, 2008

Fast, stable, dependable memory for your DSLR camera. I was pleased with the card and have this one and a 4GB card that I swap back and forth and unless I am shooting in the largest mode possible, it's almost difficult to fill up this card. Probably great for weddings, sports and other "events" where you are shooting a boatlad of shots and don't want to take the time to swap memory cards.

I've learned to trust Lexar memory and this one did not change my opinion. Very fast and reliable. I have taken literally thousands of photos on this with no issues whatsoever.
