Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of SanDisk 2 GB SDSDX3-2048-901 Extreme III SD Memory Card (Retail Package)
Customer Review: Very Compatible
Summary: 5 Stars
I was hesitant to buy this after my camera manufacturer told me it was not compatible with my camera. I own a Konica Minolta Z2 (now owned by Sony, who told me it was not compatible) and I tried it as soon as I received it. It is very compatible with my Z2 and it stores thousands of photos even with my camera on fine mode. I would recommend this to anyone. I have an infant and you sometimes have to take pictures fast to capture that moment and this card lets me do it every time! I would purchase this again and will most definitely recommend it to my family and friends. It reads just as fast too! I loaded it into my computer and ZAP, all my pictures were there quickly and smoothly. Thank You SanDisk for a great card and Thank You Amazon for the fast delivery!Customer Review: Andorama
Summary: 2 Stars
I purcased a digital camera and a 2GB Scandisk from Amazon and should have received it in 2 days on November 25, 2007. I received the camera within the specified time from Amazon but it took Andorama (must be Amazon partners) 3 weeks to ship the ScanDisk 2GB. When I called their Customer Service they said I should return it however, it shoud have to be done in 7 days and I would have to pay the postage. I had already bought a ScanDisk card from a local store. I don't have any issues with the ScanDisk card. I decided not to send the card back since the cost of the postage and Andorama's charges would have left me with hardly any money back. Now I have 2 x 2Gb ScanDisk cards! Check your shipments and take action if what you ordered is not received in timely manner.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!
