5.0 out of 5 stars
Ignore the negative review:, March 6, 2004
This review is from: SimpleTech STI-CF/1GBT2 1GB CompactFlash Card (Personal Computers)
Clearly the person giving this one star is doing so because apparently they are upset that the card could not be used in a product not designed for it! Normally I write very few reviews but it's quite irritating when people post negatives simply because they don't understand what they are purchasing. This is a CF II card...that means it's for cameras and devices with a CF II slot... In any event, this is an excellent card. Very fast with my Cannon 300D (Rebel). Uses minimal power, with no moving parts. I've never had a problem with any read / write operation. I'm getting 287 6 MegaPixel images...hopefully enough for most people! Overall very happy with this card.

Type II card won't fit most cameras, November 20, 2003
This review is from: SimpleTech STI-CF/1GBT2 1GB CompactFlash Card (Personal Computers)
I bought this card to use with a Canon S400, but it does not fit in the CF slot. It is a Type II CF Card(5.0mm) most digital cameras take Type I CF cards(3.3mm), which are slightly slimmer. At the time of purchase, the fact that it is type II was not posted on the detail page and the manual was not available. I don't think it's obvious to the layperson what the "T2" represents out of "ST-CF/1GBT2." It would be nice if it were added to product details or description. Finally, why buy a type II when you can get a 1Gb Type I that fits all CF devices for less money?

It will work, but at what price?, September 26, 2006
This review is from: SimpleTech STI-CF/1GBT2 1GB CompactFlash Card (Personal Computers)
I used the CF Card in a Canon 20D for wedding photography photos, and it worked flawlessly along with the rest of my CF cards.
Pros
+Decent Write Speed
+Holds almost 1 GB of data
+Solid CF card
Cons
-Extremely overpriced
-After buying other CF cards, I cannot justify the price.
If you'd like a CF card with a great warranty, then this may be for you. On the other hand, there are many other CF cards that will work just as great or better but for far much less.
