Compactflash Card, 8GB, 45X Speed Reviews

Customer Rating: Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5
Summary: Too slow for some applications
Comment: If you do sports photography with something like a Canon EOS40D which can run off 256Mb of images in one burst of a few seconds you are going to be waiting for this card a lot longer than for other cards at the same price.

At 45x this is just over 1/6th the speed of 266x cards which sell for a similar price. A pretty picture doesn't make up for a lack of speed.

Summary: WAY Too Slow!
Comment: I received 2 of these today & used them on a photoshoot with my Nikon D300. The write time is absolutely unacceptable! It took up to 5 seconds for each frame to write to the card. I'm sending them back tomorrow for a refund.

Customer Rating: Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5
Summary: Used for Canon 30D
Comment: Works fast and reliably.
Don't let 45X lead you to think that its not fast.
45X is more than enough.


Editorial Review for Compactflash Card, 8GB, 45X Speed:

Kingston's Elite Pro memory cards are designed specifically to help advanced amateur or professional photographers get the best performance from their high-end imaging devices and applications. No matter how fast you work, keep pace with its ultra-fast transfer rates and continuous, high-resolution images in less time with the Elite Pro than with traditional CompactFlash memory cards. Dimensions - 1.43 x 1.68 x 0.13 inch (36.4mm x 42.8mm x 3.3mm)
