It's reliable and it's fast enough for my AVCHD camcorder that has a 17mbts/second data stream. What else could I ask for? Not one problem after at least 3tb of read/write.

5.0 out of 5 stars Couldn't be happier with my 16GB SanDisk CLASS 6 SDHC memory card, December 9, 2010

Before buying this card, I did quite a bit of research on SDHC cards in general. Firstly, there appeared to be quite a few issues with less expensive brands. SanDisk seems to have avoided much of the lost memory issues.

Secondly, I looked at the different "classes" - two, four and six. I believe there are higher classes for professionals. Class two is not recommended if you are looking to shoot high quality HD footage, and class four is the bare minimum, so I decided to go for class 6. I figure it'll stay technologically relevant for much longer.

Next, this card looked to be the best price for a class 6 card with 16GB of memory. I opted for 16GB over 8GB or 4GB for when I go on short weekend trips and might not bring my cpu to unload footage. Again, I film using high HD settings on my Canon VIXIA HF200 HD Flash Memory Camcorder w/15x Optical Zoom - 2009 MODEL and felt I needed more memory, but wasn't willing to pay for a 32GB card which can get pretty expensive.

Finally, this card is made specifically for HD video in mind, and I knew I'd be shooting more video footage than camera stills. That sealed the deal for me, and I haven't looked back since.

P.S. As others have mentioned - I did in fact receive a Class 6 card even though the picture provided is only a Class 4 card.

Good price but I'm not 100% sure that it is an authentic SanDisk product. Just doesn't look the same as others I purchased in store or on Amazon. Putting that idea aside, it performs well and was a reasonable price for a class 6 card. Also the seller shipped quickly.
