Kingston 2GB Secure Digital Memory Card (SD/2GB, Retail Package)

I didn't think my Casio EX-Z40 was that old, so I went ahead an ordered this 2GB 50X Kingston memory card in the hopes that I could take a ton more photos. Of course, my first experience using this memory card was at my Great Grandmother's 100th birthday. I went to shoot video and once I finished and went to save it the screen popped up with "System Error". WHAT?!! This became very common with this memory card. I am frustrated more at Casio I suppose than this memory card, but it's hard to tell which one is actually the culprit, as other memory cards have worked great. If you are not really hard up on how fast it saves the file, I would perhaps check with your camera/device for compatibility before making this purchase. I guess I could try using this in my HD video camera. The intermittent function of the card will ruin taking photos at an event and you will want to put your camera away, so better to be safe than sorry...even if it only costs sixteen bucks. I rate this a 4 out of 5, just for the mere fact that it works when it wants to.

I was reluctant to try this because the price seemed too good to be true. I'm so glad I did - it is terrific!

Until recently, I bought nothing but SanDisk and Lexar SD cards for my digital cameras. To be honest, they always worked perfectly and I have no complaints about the products themselves.

A few months ago I was on the website of a well-known photo shop located in New York City and came across these Class 6 Kingston cards selling for about half the price of the SanDisk and Lexar products.

Being in the market from some 4gb cards, I figured that I had nothing to lose (the store has a no-questions-asked return policy) so I ordered two.

One went into my Nikon D80 and the other into my Canon G9. All that I can say is that they work just as well as the higher priced brands. I see no difference in performance and they have proven to be 100% reliable.

Frankly, I don't find that one brand of Class 6 cards is any faster than another in my cameras. Perhaps someone with sophisticated testing equipment can prove that one brand is a milisecond faster than another but, for all practical purposes, it really doesn't matter.

Product as advertised, and works well. fits well in the micro SD ports in the devices I have and the SD card fits well in the SD card readers I have used it in

It's cheap, and gets the job done. Enough said. Better deal than one found in any store.
