Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of SanDisk 2 GB SDSDX3-2048-901 Extreme III SD Memory Card (Retail Package)
Customer Review: Fast reliable memory, low price for its speed
Summary: 5 Stars
The title of this review says it all. Although "standard" SD cards may be at just about giveaway prices today, if you have a new fast, high-megapixel DSLR camera, its performance will suffer unless you use the fastest SD cards available, such as the SanDisk Extreme III. Think not only in terms of capturing multiple pictures in the shortest time your camera is capable of, but later, when it comes time to transfer the day's shoot over to your computer.
In addition, its generous 2 GB size mean more high-res .jpg or RAW images can be stored before running out of storage space.
Oh yes, this card performs exactly as expected. I'll leave the slower or smaller capacity cards to the less demanding point 'n' shoots.
Customer Review: Built for Real-World Conditions
Summary: 5 Stars
I really like this card. It's made well for professionals in real-world conditions. The package comes with a free neoprene carrying pouch, a plastic hard case, literature, and a cd-rom for the recovery & back-up software programs.
As far as speed, I'm not sure how fast it is, but I'd say it's equal to another brand of 2GB SD card that's rated at 150x speed. Of course, your camera's processing speed also factors in.
In my 10 MP Panasonic DMC-FZ50 camera, the SanDisk 2GB Extreme III SD card gives me exactly 399 shots. This gets interesting: my Leica M8 gets exactly 539 shots at the finest jpeg setting!
So far, I have not had any data loss problems, and that to me is very important.
Customer Review: From a digital photographer's thoughts:
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent card.
Recommendation: A+
Pros: Large, secure, and fast
Cons: You pay for the large, secure, and the fast!
Opinion: Ok, here's the deal. I bought two of them when a bought my canon s3, because for a heavy duty camera like that, you can't bother with cheap, slow, "ecconomical" trash. I found these cards to be everything as described (there was one note, not really a problem. Just remember that ALL cards are set at an estimated value. What i mean is that this card is rated a 2gb, but is actually 1.8gb. All cards are like this, but just take note). If you are willing to pay, you will be satisfied.
Conclusion: If you can justify the price, buy it!
Customer Review: You don't need more
Summary: 5 Stars
I recieved this SanDisk 2 GB Extreme III SD Memory Card yesterday.
It was nice packed.
Inside of the package: the memory card, recovery mini disk software and very nice travel case.
I checked the card immediately - it was already formated, so need to format manualy. It works fine with my Cannon camera. I took a dosen shots on fast sports mode - really fast. No time to load the image on the screen. Everything appears simultaneously.
My HP laptop with integrated card reader read the card without any problems.
My overal opinion: REALLY NICE PRODUCT!
I'm still working with the card for a day, but i hope there won't be a problems in the future.
Customer Review: 20 MB/Sec write, read speed... wow!
Summary: 5 Stars
Simply, top of the line.
Some reviewers here got misunderstanding when compare this product to others as they say "It looks similar to Ultra II or Class 6". To feel the difference u have to test it in DSLR or camcorder (both with demanding circumstances) not in compact cameras. Ultra II give u 10MB/Sec write speed and u dont need more than that for compacts even for burst shooting, u reach the maximum performance with Ultra II in most compact cameras. So it is not surprising that u will not feel difference! u may feel difference while transferring files. 20MB/Sec write/read speed is something surprising. Remember, u may not need all this speed for your compact camera.
