User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars Hi-Speed and works with Nikon D60/D40
It is really high-speed (as compared to older SD cards) in terms of saving the picture to the card. I have the older cards from 2006-2008 timeframe with 1GB/2GB capacity and this new card is lot more faster than those. The 8 Gig capacity is well enough for normal photo shooting purpose, esp. if you shoot in RAW format. Recommended.
5 Stars Memory Card
This memory card has a lot of room on it. I have yet to fill it up. No problems with it.
5 Stars Excellent for MP3/Video Players!
Bought this for my son’s Zen, to hold movies. It’s a good amount of extra storage for a great price.
5 Stars A great card for the price, plus frustration free packaging is amazing
If you need a solid, non-flashy card for your digital camera, you can’t go wrong with Kingston. I’ve had them for 10 years in various devices and I’ve only had a problem caused by the camera itself. Kingston, to their credit and their amazing warranty, replaced it quickly. I couldn’t find a receipt for it, but they replaced it no problem. That’s great service.
The card is rated as a Class 4 card, so it can handle greater than writes of 4 Mb/s to the card. For photography, it doesn’t matter unless you’re using a high-end digital SLR (writing large files is an annoyance.) If you plan on filming video, the card should be fine for AVHCD lite (720p HD) but when in doubt, go for the faster (Class 6 or higher) SDHC cards. I have one of these cards for a Canon Powershot G10 shooting 15mb RAW files, and it works flawlessly.
The Amazon Frustration-Free packaging is another benefit. One of the things I hate about getting memory cards is that shrink wrapped plastic. If you’re like me, you grab the nearest sharpest object to open those plastic clamshells and try to open it in such a way where you don’t injure yourself. Instead, it’s eco friendly AND I don’t have to worry about the off-chance I’ll injure myself, turning a $13 card into an expensive emergency room visit.
4 Stars Works Just Fine
I’ve used a couple of these cards, both in my Elph Camera and in my Kindle, and they have worked just fine. No problems to report. When I bought it on Amazon, the price was competitive, but always be sure to shop around a bit.
