 very impressed December 28, 2008

I use this card in my nikon D90. It's a HUGE improvement over the standard 10mb/s sandisk cards. Even though it's only 2x faster (20mb/s) it empties my D90's cache probably 3-4x faster.
When shooting RAW, I could get about .75FPS once the buffer filed up on the standard SD card. With the extreme III card, I get about 2FPS once the buffer fills up. What a huge and needed improvement!
Fast SD Memory Card December 21, 2008

I bought this SD card for use in my Canon SD890is digital camera and it works great. Fast image storage so I'm ready for that next shot. Recomended
Beware if using older card reader--New SD-HC cards may not work... December 16, 2008

I love the SanDisk Ultra II and Extreme III series of media, however, if you've been using older generation memory card readers then you should know that these newer SD-HC format (secure digital high capacity) memory cards probably won't work in your older memory card reader. It is the "HC" format that causes the problem. I've only encountered this problem with SD cards starting at 4 GB and larger. The 2 GB and smaller cards aren't "HC" and thus still work fine in older card readers. Other media like compact flash, memory stick, etc. also still seem to work OK with older readers at all sizes.
A new card reader could set you back nearly thirty bucks so think carefully before buying SD-HC media.

 Good SD Card but Much Slower than UltraII 2 GB Cards December 9, 2008
Lanny Sanders (Seattle, WA)
I have Canon 1Ds and 1D Mark II cameras. I shot in RAW format, so I get large image sizes that are stored on the cards. I've been very happy with Sandisk UltraII 2GB cards and wanted to get a little more space for longer trips. I purchased 4 of these cards and tested each card on 10-shot burst on both cameras. Each of the 4GB cards took twice as long to process the data as the Ultra II 2GB cards. I use the burst mode on these cameras for wildlife (the 1D is capable of 8.5 frames per second) and I need to be ready to shoot again within 10 seconds. The cards took more than 30 seconds to finally store all the images (about 85 megs of data). I don't know if I got bad cards or the larger space is naturally slower, but I'll sell these and stick with my 2GB cards.
