 Good Card, good price July 10, 2005
11 out of 11 found this review helpful
I bought this card to use with a Canon Digital Rebel XT. I've used if for about a month and have shot about 1000 photographs at high resolution (8 mpx). I used the camera in burst mode on several occasions to take action shots of people riding a sled down a snow covered mountain. Both the camera and card managed the task without any difficulty. If there is a time lag in writing the files to the card, I didn't notice it.
Great Speed June 9, 2005

It has worked great with my Nikon D70. I fully recommend this card after owning 5 CF cards of 5 different companies, including Lexar, Canon-branded, and SimpleTech.
This is a great card and I would purchase it again.
 Must Keep the Camera On to Save Images May 23, 2005
58 out of 82 found this review helpful
I've known and happily used SanDisk CF cards before, high quality, good price. This Ultra II card comes with some worries. Since CF doesn't write at 9MB/sec, it uses a "buffer" to write a small amount (like 4 megs) to an ultra-fast buffer, then the image is slowly transferred to the main card. And there's the problem.
I lost every "last image" on my trip to Italy. When I powered on the camera, took say 5 pictures, it would record 4 and lose the last image. This is because I was turning the camera off after taking the 5th picture. I needed to leave the camera on another 20 seconds to be sure the memory card finished transfer of the images. So it's very fast, for a small burst of pictures, but LEAVE THE CAMERA ON. I did a lot of "that's cool!" pictures... you turn the camera on, take a picture, turn the camera off to save battery life. Mistake. Make sure you REVIEW the images (and not just the temporary image displayed after the picture is taken) before POWERING DOWN.
First CF Card May 13, 2005
19 out of 20 found this review helpful
I got lucky! After purchasing a Rebel XT, I wanted a CF card that was roomy and priced right. AT the time and place, the Sandisk Ultra II 1GB was the ticket. I was not well versed with the different write/read speads of different CF cards. The Rebel XT specs indicate 3 FPS up to 14 pictures. In high resolution JPEG mode (no RAW), my rebel XT never stopped to wait for an image to be written to the Ultra II CF card. I'm guessing I could've held the shutter release and kept on going 'til the card was full.
Take the time to read the other reviews by individuals who've done their research and are more experienced. I'm convinced based on personal experience and reading about others' and will continue to purchase additional Sandisk Ultra II 1GB CF cards. Right now I need more batteries!
Card speed vs camera buffer dump speeds. May 1, 2005
27 out of 32 found this review helpful
I've done a little research trying to find the best cf card for my Canon Digital Rebel XT. Scandisk has a new series of cards called Ultra III, with 20mb/sec speeds. Just because the card is fast can my camera take advantage of the speed? In my case not really. My camera dumps at about 6MB/Sec with most of the faster cards. I currently have the Lexar 80x 2Gig card, and have not had many problems other than a corrupt file every 1000 shots or so. My Canon does not take advantage of Lexars Write Acceleration, but I didn't find out until searching for another card. Here is a link to the test results I found. http://www.robgalbraith.com/bins/multi_page.asp?cid=6007 .
