 more memory December 15, 2007
A friend once said that you can never have enough memory and all that I will add is fast memory helps even more.
Works Fine in Canon A460 December 13, 2007
I did no research on this card before purchase. I saw them on sale at Office Max for about $20 so I bought one (Sandisk Ultra II 2GB.) I plugged it into the SD slot of my Canon A460 and it has been working ever since. I did not do anything like formatting, menu changes, etc.
Works Great December 12, 2007
Purchased this card several months ago to be used with a Panasonic DMC-FZ8 and it works flawlessly. It is "only" a memory card and does as asked. As to others that have had issues, we have not had any to date. I treat these cards as I do hard drives. I suggest testing them first before trusting them. Nothing is fool proof so failure is inevitable and expected. I suggest downloading the pictures into a computer whenever you have time. Just because it can hold a zillion pictures (actual number of pictures vary from camera to camera) doesn't mean you should keep the card in your camera all year and download them when the memory is full. All it needs is a little static electricity or surge of electricity and your photos could be gone. This can happen with any card, any storage device, any time. We backup our hard drives, so have a back up (second card) for your camera, and use them wisely.
It is better to lose one day of shooting than a year of memories.
 Easy to corrupt! Beware...Also, poor customer service. December 7, 2007
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Bought the 2 pack of these from Costco. Placed one in the Canon SD950 to take pics of my newborn. 360 pics were taken over the 1st 2 days of my baby's life with a fully charged camera with a lot of battery to go. On the 3rd day, there was only 1 pic on the card! The other 359 were corrupted! Never used the card in any other device and never took the card in or out. I tried reading it in 5 other devices to find that the space is taken, but the pics are gone.
Called Canon, where a very helpful rep (I had other Canon products with which he was helping me). I asked if I should stay away from Sandisk as a whole and he said that i should stick with big reputable companies like Sandisk (and Kingston or Lexar...can't remember which he said). He said to make sure to format the card first (which i didn't do in this case), make sure the battery never runs out while taking pics, never pull the card from a reader while it's running...common sense stuff. He did say that most card companies will give a program which will restore files.
So, I called Sandisk. I got a rep who was very difficult to understand because of a thick foreign accent and a delay in talking transmission which leads me to believe that the CS for Sandisk is overseas...namely India. She was useless. She directed me to a website to recover files... www.lc-tech.com. I was told to download the demo and see if I could see any files and then I would have to purchase the demo on my own.
Ok...well, then since I had a card which failed once, i wanted a new card to replace this...she should pretended she didn't hear me... I repeated and she then was clearly trying to get me off the phone. I don't have time to waste on the phone as a newborn is screaming in the other room...so thank you, goodbye.
I did proceed to try their recovery program demo. It could identify 2 and a half pics. Worthless.
Then I downloaded eIMAGE Recovery which could identify all 360 pics... but only 2/3 of them were viewable and all the videos were screwed. I bought that program since I could recover some key photos.
All in all...as another poster states...I should go with the better SD card than this whether it be the Ultra III or another brand...but now I have to find the packaging for Costco and return these.
BTW, I did end up using the other 2g card in the pack for the past few weeks after formatting it and it hasn't yet failed.
To all...make sure you download pics to your computer often! Especially if you have a special occasion!
Just a chip December 1, 2007
Like all electronic products, there is a probability of failure. For just a chip, the failure rate should be low, very low. I read comments about people failed to have the card operate normally (20/400), I believe it's because of the user, not the product. When I first insert it into my laptop, it malfunctioned, system saying it's not formatted and can't format it. I took it out and plugged it in again. Format it and write files in. No problem. I can't explain what happened. For a chip, don't expect too much and have confidence, backup well and good to go.
