Nice capacity. Only after a long time of using it I can say how robust is this memory card.
What an idiot I wasNovember 29, 2008 2 out of 5 found this review helpful
After buying the card, i was really happy using it. First, after 1 month one day I had an unreadable image in my card, but did not realize the danger at that time.
Then 2 weeks ago, all the images in the card suddenly become unreadable. I had almost 150 pictures that weren't uploaded yet, constituting every picture I took this month.
I paid 1100$ for the camera. Than for "saving" money i used my mind and get this cheap card with good reviews. Than, i lost all the pictures i took in 1 month. After spending 1100$ on a camera, now all my images for 30 days of my life, including very important ones, are lost. Comparing the amount i spend on taking a picture, with the amount i spend for storing it, now i understand how clever I am.

Works as it should, holds tons of pictures, and is cheap. What's not to like?
Never ending memoryNovember 28, 2008 This was one of the cheapest 8GB chips out there with Class 6 speed. You want the fastest possible speed and even at that it takes a while to download lots of pictures - can't imagine how long the slower ones take - so don't get anything less than the highest class available. On the plus side, running out of memory is never a problem any more if you take pictures.
Wow! An essential for digital photographers using SDHC camerasNovember 27, 2008 All I can say is WOW! We have sure come a long way in a short time. This little 8GB SDHC memory card is all one could ask for in an SDHC card. In my Nikon D80 it lets me take hundreds and hundreds of pictures. Speaking subjectively, the write speed seems to be faster than the camera's buffer, so that the card is not a bottleneck when taking a long series of continuous photos.
The ONLY thing I disliked about this card was the packaging. It comes in that hard-plastic type of container that can literally blunt the edge of one's knife or scissors. Or worse, when trying to open it it would be possible to damage the card itself. Why do retailers do this? Also, the card did not come with a little plastic card container. These are minor quibbles.
Two or three of these inexpensive cards, and one would have enough photo capacity for any vacation. I love the digital age!
