The funnier part is that this Class 6 "Video HD" SDHC card was less expensive than the Class 4 and Class 6 regular SDHC cards. You can't beat the value of this card unless you settle for a no-name brand or a lesser brand.Pros: Works fine in my digital camera, very fast, comes with a decent SD card case, great bang for the buck (Class 6)Cons: It's not marketed very clearly as being designed for all SDHC applications.
I thought 593 photos was enough, but I needed more. This SanDisk 8GB SDHC card, although marketed as a "Video HD" card, it is fully compatible with digital cameras that use SD/SDHC cards.
I bought this recently from a store while on travel because I maxed out my 2GB SD card while taking photos. I bought the card in a bind because I needed the card ASAP and didn't have time to research the best price, but I was amazed to find out later on that the store actually sold it at a lower price than Amazon.
In addition, it is a CLASS 6 SDHC card, not Class 4 as stated in Amazon. On my 7MP Canon Powershot A570IS, the 8GB can hold over 2300 photos at max resolution.The blisterpack opens up to reveal the SDHC card and a plastic case.
I asked one of the workers at the store and she said it *should* work but she wasn't 100% sure. Overall: 5/5 stars.
They are more expensive than other brands, but usually you get what you pay for with Sandisk. I bought four of these last year for my Canon Vixia HF100. So far we've used two of them and they work perfectly. As a side-note, I always use the HF100's highest quality setting, FXP, which is 17Mbps (MegaBITS per second) AVCHD, and the VideoHD cards are class 4 (4.0MB/s x 8 = 32Mbps), which is more than enough for he Vixia's max throughput.
If you plug it into a card reader, it won't recognize it. I bought this card for my Canon PowerShot G10 which works fine for taking pictures. but the only way I can get the pictures off the SD card is through the camera. I have tried it on several card readers and it just does not work. I give this 2 stars as it only works through my camera.
I use this for my flash HD camcorder. It's not that big of a deal and I still got on the footage I wanted. For the first 3GB the card ran super smooth and quick. However, as I continued to fill it up (totally 5.5 GB by the end of my trip) the run speed continued to decrease. Offload speed is great and I really can't complain. Good product at a great price.
This is an excellent card that I can use in my Fuji S1000fd and also in the flash drive camcorder that II plan to purchase on Amazon.com SanDisk makes an excellent product and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for reliable storage for their digital stills and video.
