5.0 out of 5 stars Easily the best I've found, July 3, 2004

This review is from: SanDisk SDCFH-1024-901 1 GB Ultra II CompactFlash Card (Retail Package) (Personal Computers)

I recently bought a Canon Digital Rebel. When considering memory I initially figured I'd stick with the brand I used with my PowerShot S30: Viking Components. But I wanted the best, knowing that my 6.3MP photos would take longer to be recorded.

I looked at the Lexar 40x first. Lexar has a good reputation and "40x" sounds like a snappy number. For some reason, though, I liked the feedback about this [Sandisk Ultra] card more. So I bought this one and am very glad I did.

Little publicized is the fact that the Sandisk Ultra II blazes along at 60x (9 Mb/s) write speed. That translates to being able to record one more whole image per second than the Lexar, and two or three images more than SimpleTech or Viking Components. (Each card reads at the same speed, I believe -- 10 Mb/s.)

Worried about a trade-off in reliability? It's backed with a 5-year warranty. You can't go wrong with that, folks.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for the Nikon D70, November 28, 2004

I got one of these for my new Nikon D70 and it works like a dream. I previously had a Canon G2 point-and-shoot with a slow 256 Mb card and it would take 3-4 seconds to grab and save the picture. With the fast 1Gb SanDisk and my Nikon D70 there is a barely noticeable lag between pressing the shutter and seeing the image on the viewfinder. You will be able to store about 96 high-res, uncompressed NEF images on the D70 with this card.

I highly recommend this card and the price is right at under $100.

I'm using this card with a Canon 20D, and it is extremely fast! Way faster scrolling between pictures I've already taken than with the Lexar 12x 512MB card I used to have. Speed doesn't matter *too* much for taking pictures with this camera since it has such a large internal buffer, but the speed is nice for reviewing pictures and transferring them to the computer.
