Product Description

Lexar Media s Professional CompactFlash Memory Cards are ideal for any photographer who demands optimal performance from both the memory card and Digital SLR camera they use. The 133x read & write speed is designed to speed up image capture times by taking advantage of a Digital SLR camera s high-speed processor. Lexar 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. For the professional shooter who needs immediate confirmation that they ve captured the Shot or wants to identify accurate exposure, levels or bracketing range, Lexar s patented speed 133X (20 MB/sec.) is critical. Ideal for fast-paced applications such as photojournalism, sports and fashion, Lexar s high-speed series and professional digital film brings out the ultimate performance from your professional equipment. Lexar guarantees it. The Digital Film Compliance seal means business. It assures you that your Lexar digital film is 100% compatible with your CompactFlash digital camera. And it s flexible and can be used in other digital devices that support CompactFlash, including PDAs, video recorders and MP3 players. All of Lexar s CompactFlash memory cards meet the CompactFlash Association s specifications and is marked with the CF+ symbol.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great memory card, January 9, 2007

I purchased this memory card to go with my new Canon 30D, and the card has worked flawlessly for me. I was concerned about whether the camera would recognize and utilize the full 4GB, but have not had a single problem with write times or the number of photos the card will hold.
Highly recommended.

This review is from: Lexar 4GB Professional 133X Compact Flash CF4GB-133-380 (Personal Computers)

I have been shooting digital since the Nikon 990. I now use a Canon 20D with this card. It may lag under the most demanding conditions, but not by much and I don't think I've ever lost a shot. I've owned the Lexar 128M ($200+), 512M($200+), 2G Pro and now 4G Pro. So, for this price this chip is a bargain: they work as expected. Other manuf chips are probably just as good, but my next chip will be from Lexar...

PS: The Lexar jump drives are decent too!

I just began shooting RAW on the CANON XTI and I need the space this card provides. I can average about 400 pictures on this card... and will need to buy another one for longer outings away from computers.
