5.0 out of 5 stars It's a memory card, October 13, 2009

This review is from: HP 32 GB SDHC Class 4 Flash Memory Card L1883A (Electronics)

What are you going to review about a memory card? It works, it's fast enough for HD and it's the size it claims to be.

4.0 out of 5 stars It did what it was supposed to do, but it was more expensive than other and faster cards just as large., February 13, 2009

By	Anonymous "Anonymous" (United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This review is from: HP 32 GB SDHC Class 4 Flash Memory Card L1883A (Electronics)

It did what it was supposed to do, but it was more expensive than other and faster cards just as large.

I was lent this card and another 32GB SDHC card which was a Class6, while this HP was rated as a Class 4 and in numbers it means the difference of a 26x speed versus 40x for Class 6 cards.

In many cameras it won't make a difference but in Nikon D series SLR's using RAW image mode, it makes a noticeable difference and the Class6 card enabled us to shoot more frames per second at high shutter speeds of 1/2000th seconds exposure and write them faster to storage.

Since this card cost just as much or more than the other offerings from TopRam TOPRAM 32GB CLASS 6 SDHC HIGH SPEED FLASH MEMORY CARD + USB 2.0 SDHC FLASH CARD READER #R3

And no name brands sold by Amazon OEM BRAND 32GB SDHC CLASS 6 High Speed Flash Memory Card (32 GB SD Secure Digital High Capacity Card, MAKE IN JAPAN) BULK + iFLASH Logo USB 2.0 SDHC FLASH CARD READER/WRITER for less.

You have to shop around for these cards since some are sold for larcenous rates like this one from Panasonic that is $280+ !!!!Panasonic 32GB SDHC Class 6 Memory Card (RP-SDV32GU1K).

I like HP products despite the fact the quality of their tech support has sank past the basement toilet, other flash RAM manufacturers won't even provide a phone number such as Transcend and Lexar tech support does everything possible to frustrate you to the point of defeat and just acceptance of a broken item.

Regardless of which SDHC brand or Class you buy, you have to determine whether or not your device is compatible with SDHC devices and these are typically cards that are 4GB and. larger.

The wider adoption of SD card format by manufacturers and the reasonable but incorrect assumption of consumers that any card that fits into the slot should be compatible is creating frustration for owners of PDA's and cameras who'd like to carry more MP3's on their iPaq or store more images on their camera without swapping cards or transferring to a PC.

There are Version 1.1 of the SD standard and Version 2.0 which supports SDHC, don't confuse Version 2.0 with Class 2 cards since Class is just speed categories.

Even if you have a Version 2.0 device / adapter, it still may not read cards larger than 8GB such as this flaw with Windows XP which wasn't fixed until ServicePack3 or HotFix KB934428.

Even 2003 Server has issues and it won't install the hotfix because of OS version checking but you can review the appended comment of this review for info on how to successfully install the patch.

1.0 out of 5 stars Beware !! This is a high Capacity and will not work on older devices, July 25, 2008

By	Scooby Doo (Phila, PA) - See all my reviews

I bought this thinking I will use on my 1-1/2 yr Cannon camera with the SD card. Well, this SD HC did not work with my camera. I should have read the FINE PRINT, but the product description says VERY LITTLE about the compatibility.

WHISHED THE PRODUCT DESCRIPTION PROVIDED BETTER DESCRIPTION !!

This is now useless for me. So I may put it up on E-BAY or something.
