(More customer reviews)As a response to "mom2sarah..." who recommends 2 cards of 512 MB rather than this 1 GB, I have some things to point out
1. It is true that write (and read) a large number of small files to (and from) a 1 GB card is a little bit slower than a 512 MB. However, this card is mostly used in digital camera and today moderate cameras have image resolution of at least 4 megapixels which means around 1 MB per file. And 1 MB is big enough to reduce the difference of transfer speed. For those who use relatively new camera, this difference is hardly noticeable.
2. Occasionally you would want to record some video from your digital camera and of course you don't want your movie to be interupted because of memory limited. In my Canon S2 IS, a super fine video of 620x480, 30fps uses the whole 1GB card just for about 8 minutes. So, using 512MB is even worse.
3. Around the internet, this card is said to be pretty durable, there is no major corruption issue with it. Hence, there is no risk to buy.
4. I have used a lot of SD cards before and this is the fastest among those. I was impressed. The first time I bought this card, I took around 300 pictures (around 400 MB), when I transferred them to my computer, I suspected it would take at least 3 minutes like my other SD cards. But no, it took only a minute flat.
5. In my Canon S2 IS, the actually usable memory is 968MB. The fact is ALL memory storage devices always have a little bit less storage space than indicated by the manufacturer.
I tried to find some cons about this card because they will make the review to be fair. But I must say that I can't find anything to complain about this card.
