Product Description

Product Description

A photo opportunity lasts only an instant. If your digital camera is busy processing the last one, you're sure to miss the next one. That's where Lexar comes in. Lexar's high-speed digital film helps your camera capture images faster, so you spend more time taking pictures and less time waiting on your camera.Lexar Media CompactFlash cards are individually speed rated so you know the minimum capability of the card. The company uses 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.Write Acceleration Technology (WA) allows digital cameras and CompactFlash cards to work together perfectly to pass and store images more quickly and achieve image-write speeds never before possible.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works great!, December 1, 2003

By	J. Strayer (Pleasant Grove, UT United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Just bought it and so far so good. Used it on a trip to Southern Utah to shoot Antelope Canyon and the Wave with my Canon 10D. Filled it up twice with no issues. Lexar includes image recovery software though, just in case, which is a nice bonus. Was the fastest of all of our cards (between 4 people with digital SLRs, we had quite a variety - SanDisk, MicroDrive, Viking, SimpleTech, Lexar), when copying images to my laptop hard drive. Bit pricey, but will probably get another.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Fastest One Out There, April 15, 2004

By	Mario S. Jimenez Jr. (San Antonio, Texas United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I had originally ordered the sandisk 1GB Ultra II online, but those other guys messed up my order and sent me this one instead. A little disappointed, I decided to keep this one. WOW!!! I have a Digital Rebel and I couldn't believe how fast this card was. It was storing my images faster than I could take the pictures. I'm talking about 6.3MP's. This baby is lightning fast, and a definite keeper. Boy am I glad I kept it!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Plug and Play, Baby!, April 1, 2004

By	J. Potter (Tulsa, OK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I use this product with a Nikon Coolpix 8700; out of the box and into the camera, ready to go with no set-up. Writes 2 MB images with ZERO delay, as fast as I can work the shutter. The Nikon's largest file weighs in at 24 MB, and this card swallows them in approx. 4 sec. Not bad.
Transferring to any PC or Mac with the JumpShot cable is equally sweet: insert card into cable, insert cable into USB port, and start clickin and draggin'. No set-up on either end. For a cross-platform guy like me, this kind of compatibility is a god-send. Thank you Lexar!
