Product Description
From the Manufacturer
Benefits of Adding Flash Memory
Increased Speed: With a larger flashcard you will spend less time transferring files to or from your computer or laptop and more time taking pictures with your digital camera, listening to music on your digital audio player, or storing more information on your PDA.
Increased Power: Increasing the memory storage for your digital camera, PDA, or MP3 player will enable you to do more with a device. For example, if you are taking pictures on your digital camera using the highest resolution and highest quality setting, an image taken from a 2-megapixel camera can be as large as 6 MB. This can eat up storage space quickly, so it's easy to see the benefits of increasing your device's flash memory.
Guaranteed Compatibility
It is import ant to purchase memory that is guaranteed to be compatible with a device because of the many subtle differences between the hundreds of different brands, types, and configurations of digital devices on the market. A product that accepts one particular brand or capacity of memory does not necessarily accept another brand or capacity--and there's nothing more frustrating than buying something you can't use.
Because compatibility is so critically important, Amazon has forged a strategic relationship with Viking Components to create the Memory Finder. The Memory Finder is a tool that can help you find memory that works with your specific product, taking the guesswork out of buying memory.

Viking Components physically tests their flash cards with hundreds of devices including laptops, PDAs, digital audio players, and digital cameras.

Furth ermore, Viking uses only the highest quality components to manufacture their flash memory, which results in fast, reliable, durable flash products.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Reliable (for me), but somewhat slow,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Viking 1 GB CompactFlash Card (CF1GB) (Personal Computers)
I have used 2 of these 1-Gig cards for the last 6 months, and have filled them each to capacity several times using my Canon Powershot G3 (4 megapixel) & G5 (5 megapixel) cameras without a single problem. However, because I shoot exclusively in the RAW format, which produces pictures that are much larger (in filesize) than the highest-quality jpegs, differences in memory card speed are much more noticable, and this Viking card is considerably slower than the faster (and more expensive) cards offered by some other companies. If you shoot mostly jpegs, you probably won't notice a difference, and you get excellent value for the money.

Useful 1GB Compact Flash card,

This review is from: Viking 1 GB CompactFlash Card (CF1GB) (Personal Computers)
After upgrading from a 3.2 megapixel digital camera (canon S20) to the 4.0 megapixel (canon s400), it was time to eliminate the somewhat useless 16 MB, 32 MB, and 64 MB Compact Flash cards from my arsenal of digital photography gear.I have kept 128 MB, 256 MB, and 512 MB compact flash cards, but have found the Viking 1 GB compact flash to write and read quickly (in part on canon's new image processing and buffering in the S400 powershot camera). Although I debated using a multispeed USB enhanced "digital film" product, for the price this Viking CF card is the best value currently (12 June 2003) available given the rebate and free ground shipping at Amazon.com. I would recommend this product to other digital photographers, especially with the latest 4 and 5 megapixel cameras.

This card does it all!,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Viking 1 GB CompactFlash Card (CF1GB) (Personal Computers)
I sold a 512MB card that was rated at 25x and purchased this card as a replacement. I notice *NO* difference in speed when I use this card with my Nikon D100! It is rated at 13x/16x read/write however I find that it works well within my needs. I recommend this card and plan to purchase more of the same. I tend to be loyal to a brand that I have come to trust, and this is one of those brands!
