5 out of 5 stars Reliable card, good speeds!   December 5, 2008

Transcend 16 GB SDHC SD Class 6 Flash Memory Card TS16GSDHC6E [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging]
I have 4 of these cards that I use in my Panasonic HMC-150, a professional grade video camera. I've run read/write tests on all of them and they get about 14 MB/s write speeds and 17.5 MB/s read speeds. Never encountered any errors! These cards are the best bang for your buck, and the frustration free packaging is awesome.

This 16GB HC SD card works wonderfully in my digital camera. It arrived fast and the Amazon frustration free packaging is just that - easy to open, less waste to dispose of, and less annoying! What can I say, so far, the card works wonderfully and even Best Buy and other stores don't have SD cards this big yet. They only had 8GB when I looked and they wanted as much as a 16GB here on Amazon.

Like all SD cards, the back side's vertical, blue plastic pieces are delicate. I wouldn't use these, or any SD cards, in a card reader. Just plug your camera into the USB directly to transfer images, much safer for the card.

Great deal!



5 out of 5 stars The Best SDHC card on the market   July 17, 2009

I have done my research and this is the fastest, most reliable, best built, most reasonably priced card on the market.
I rigorously tested this card and it performs at sustained speeds of 8MB/s write and 28MB/s read. It has handled the abuse of being re-inserted into the dslr every day and it has never lost a photo or hiccuped in any way. The speed is even more than than enough for videos even at 24 megabits per second.




5 out of 5 stars Excellent performance, solid compatability   July 3, 2008

I purchased this SDHC, Class 6 card for my new Canon G9 about 4 months ago because I needed a high-speed SDHC card for the new camera. Since getting it, I have ended up swapping it between the Canon G9 and my SD800, depending on if I was going to an event with point-and-shoot requirements or if I could sling the G9 around my neck and use it.

The performance so far has been excellent, I've fired off a 45-second sequence of continuous shots on my G9 (10MP camera) before at a wedding and the card has no problem writing all that out and just letting me keep holding down the button and firing off shot after shot. When you consider the raw amount of bytes the camera is processing and writing during a continuous-shot session, it's pretty dang impression that it's writing out so many MB/sec.

The SD800, at 6MP, performs swimmingly as well but the real performance bar to clear was the G9, which it handles with ease. Also swapping the card between cameras in the middle of shooting sessions has never been a problem as the card seems to be compatible with all my SD-based Canons without issue. I've never had to reformat the card or anything like that.

The "no brainer" attribute of purchasing this card is the combination of performance, compatibility and price... you could buy 4 of these things and just swap them in and out if you are a serious photographer.

I get 600-800 shots at 10mp on a single card at about 4-6mb each picture so I really can't imagine you needing more than one of these unless you were a professional photographer shooting at like 12 or higher MP with a trigger finger. But in that case you probably want to play it safe and use more cards, incase any 1 of them has a failure.

That was a tip I heard from some photographer friends; that you never want to buy bigger than a 4GB card incase you fill it up and it fails, then you loose hundreds and hundreds of pictures at one time. So in most cases having a few 4GB cards seems to be the sweet spot between safety and convenience.

I bought this memory card for my Canon SD1100is, it works great and at 8MP can hold about 1,900 pictures. If only I would have waited until they came out with the frustration-free packaging for this! That was by far the most annoying part, trying to get into the thing. Do yourself a favor and buy the one with the new packaging! --> Transcend TS8GSDHC6E 8 GB SDHC Card (SD 2.0 SPD Class 6) [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging] Oh, I should also add that amazon is the best place to buy any kind of memory card. I've compared prices with stores and they're always about twice as much there as on amazon. The money you can save is worth waiting a day or two to get it.
