Product Description

From the Manufacturer

A photo opportunity lasts only an instant. If your digital camera is busy processing the last one, you're sure to miss the next one. That's where we come in. Our high-speed digital film helps your camera capture images faster, so you spend more time taking pictures and less time waiting on your camera.

Lexar Media CompactFlash cards are individually speed rated so you know the minimum capability of the card. We use the same rating system used by the CD-ROM industry, where data transfer rate of 1X equals 150 kilobytes (KB) per second. The higher the speed rating, the faster your camera will be able to write images to the memory card.

Product Description

High capacity compact flash provides 512MB of storage for all your digital image needs.

4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent CF Card, October 20, 2004

In the real of media, there arent many that stand out to be impressive- and this card isn't an impressive performer, which is why I would only give it 4 stars. However it's a solid performer, excellent read/write without errors, and I can depend on this card! I have shot almost 5000 pictures on it since i got it last month and the card has been great! It's an excellent investment to anyone who's camera doesn't support the new hugely faster speeds.

this Lexar 512 card is a nice card. I have used Sandisk and Viking cards previously. And the Lexar is keeps up with them. Not the fastest of the bunch, but I havent had a problem with losing any images. (between the three brands I have had the most problems with Sandisk, all 512 cards)

I shoot with a Canon G5, 5MP camera and for weekend trips this card works great. Shoots fast enough for my camera, but have noticed is a bit slow when I try and review images on my camera. but not much. only reason I gave it a 4.

For the 29.99 price though don't hesitate, it's a good deal.
cheers-
