Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Transcend 8 GB SDHC Class 6 Flash Memory Card TS8GSDHC6E
Customer Review: Great product at a great price
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered 3 of these though with some apprehension since I've never previously owned any Transcend products. However now that I've been shooting 100s of pictures with my 12 megapixel SLR I can say that these are great cards for a very good price. At this class level these memory cards are super speedy for action shots, something that a nice set of Blue Angels pictures I snapped using these cards proved.
The only drawback and I'm assuming it's because the cards cost $15 each is that they don't come with the usual containers that other SD cards include. Annoying but fortunately I had enough containers from old SD cards that I could re-purpose but be forewarned!
Customer Review: Great Card - Fast Transfers
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great product. The transfer rate from the card to my computer is a whole lot faster than an older, slower 1 Gig card I was using.
I have a SLR camera and tested this card against my slower card and the picture taking/recording rate was about the same. I think the newer DSLR cameras have a buffer so the speed of the card really doesn't affect the speed at which a few pictures are taken.
However, with a lot of pictures on the card, it's nice to have a fast transfer rate when I'm copying the pictures to my hard drive.
The 8 Gig storage is great. I can store over 2,000, 10.2 megapixel pictures on the card.
Customer Review: Great value
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my second Transcend card and I am very happy with the performance and the value. I've been using the first one in an Zoom H2 recorder and have found it's performance to be dead on reliable. I bought this new card for my Canon Rebel Esi and am extremely happy with it. In another review someone mentions having a little difficulty with the card hanging in the slot of their Canon but I have experienced no such difficulty.
I love the simplified packaging! My first card came in the original packaging and was a real PITA to open. Kudos to Transcend for a great card at a great price and to Amazon for the packaging.
Customer Review: Works Just Fine in My Xacti CG6
Summary: 5 Stars
There isn't much to say about an SD card. Either it works or it doesn't. This one works just fine for me in my Sanyo Xacti CG6 hybrid video/digicam. No problems for me. I should note that the CG6 is NOT an HD resolution camera - 640 x 480 only.
One point to keep in mind, and I knew this before I bought it but didn't think about it until after, is that these high capacity (>2mb) SD cards are not readable using older card readers. I can't use it in my portable card reader or in the built-in card reader on my 3 year old computer. I must connect the camera to a USB port in order to copy files from this card to my computer.
Customer Review: Great for the mini-cam's--great price and package. Easy to use.
Summary: 5 Stars
Transcend is a AMAZON staple, and I find their SD cards to be superior to other (sometimes bargain) brands.
I have used this card in Kodak's Zi6 camcorder with great results, as well as a Fuji camera z20xd. Very easy to use, and AMAZON frustration free packaging, is a huge plus, particularly if this is a gift.
I have recorded over and over on the card, and have not seen a problem with image quality - if anything, it is me being lazy and not wanting to delete things, or burn to DVD. *am I the only one?*
This card is handy, and well worth considering.
