I have 5 SD cards from 1 GB to 8 GB. Most are the fastest available at the time, some are just for size. This one is, currently, the best of them all. In my Canon XSi it bumps my FPS to 4+ from the stated 3.5 FPS. It cuts nearly 2 seconds off the write time to empty the buffer after a batch of RAW files. It can keep up with a sustained write speed of 3+FPS for over 100 pictures (I got tired of testing longer than that with the stopwatch, but it kept that pace until I filled card even after I stopped timing it).
Essentially it lets my camera outperform the stated specs for the camera. Enough said. That is why I bought it, that is why I paid a premium, and that is why I am OK with the fact that I did pay more. I am getting more. You will too, in theory at least. All cards may be slightly different, you could get a lemon or you could get a gem.
I am happy with the purchase, happy with the product and happy with the seller, in my case Adorama via Amazon Marketplace.
I have taken in excess of 20,000 pictures on it already. I take alot of pictures. Most are deleted, many right in camera. The card has been formated probably a few hundred times by now, sometimes low level formating but usually just the fast version to clear the space. I have never to my knowledge had a problem with it (or the camera for that matter). I take it out and plug it into a USB card reader on my workstation at least 4 times a week to transfer files, sometimes more.
It takes its share of abuse and keeps on working. I have used the built in USB, handy in a pinch, but it is not my normal workflow. Mostly I want to impart on a potential purchaser that this is a solid product with proven results, proven by real sites not by me of course. This card is the no brainer buy for anyone who NEEDs a good, fast, reliable SD card.
