A Real Bargain
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.

Micro SD card
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 2008-10-09
Oustanding.
It's cheap, and gets the job done. Enough said. Better deal than one found in any store. 2008-10-08
Kingston 8GB SDHC Class 6 flash card
Product works great in my Pentax Optio W30 (which as far as I can tell does not specify SDHC compatibility to get beyond the 4GB limit of regular SD). Now I have more than enough room on vacations without having to swap cards. Fast save, fast viewing. I am pleased. Kingston costs a bit more but their products tend to be higher quality and grief free.
P.S. YMMV on whether SDHC will work in your pre-SDHC device.

What can be better than a 2 KB memory card?
This is the memory card you want for your camera if you are planning a long trip or vacation. It holds over 1200 pictures (at least on my old camera). Oddly enough, I didn't use it on the trip I bought it for, but now use it as I have pictures on my smaller 528 MB card that I don't want to delete yet. Plus, it's always good to have a second card, just in case. 2008-10-05
