Kingston Ultimate 8 GB 266x CompactFlash Memory Card CF/8GB-U2 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I needed more memory before a wedding, and this compact flash card was just what the doctor ordered. I shoot in camera RAW, so of course the files are huge. I really wanted to be able to continue to shoot for much longer without changing cards or downloading. I researched cards, and asked around, and this product always gets rave reviews. I can't believe I didn't get it before...saves SO much time and hassle! Highly recommended for anyone. Would be great on outdoor shoots, vacations, anywhere you'll have many, many photos and don't want to download so often.

Pelican 1200 Case w/Foam (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have owned a Pelican case for years. I cannot figure out why the O-ring is in the lid, and so flops loose when one tries to close the case. We replace the ring every year with an official Pelican O-ring, and it is always the same. Gravity just drops the ring out. It usually takes several tries to get the thing closed.
Second flaw is that the two snap closers are extremely tight in closing and in opening. I bang them with my fist to close them, and yank with all four fingers to get each one open. The sudden snap sends one's hand into sharp parts of the case, causing minor injuries (cuts).
I really think that simple engineering could make a better design. There is no reason that the O-ring should not fit in place by its own friction.
The boxes are mostly waterproof, but we tested ours several times, and found that some water did get in if the case was dropped into the water.
The O-ring must be new every year, and must be well greased with silicon grease. Warning: silicon grease is not generally available in back areas. Look in professional plumbing stores in urban regions. Be sure to test your case with weights equivalent to the items you wish to carry in it, to make sure that it will float if it goes overboard. For marine purposes, you need a brightly-colored case. A modest green or black one will likely be lost as soon as it goes into the water.
In spite of these defects, I have used my Pelican case to protect camera equipment when going by boat to remote islands. When you are on a small boat, you should pretty much assume that things will be receiving spray.
