Pretty darned good card [Posted on 2008-02-07]
Other reviewers have trashed this CF card because of speed issues. The one I bought performs as well as any other 133X CF I own (others by SanDisk, Kingston & a 4gig Transcend). I can shoot blazing fast bursts with my new Sony DSLR A700. Totally meets my needs. Maybe it's a bit below the needs for CF computing - but for a camera it's very nice. And I get 2700+ photos in Fine mode at 12.2 megapixels a shot!
good card. [Posted on 2008-02-29]
This 16gb CF card from Transcend seems to be a good card for the low cost. works well in my Nkion D200. Is faster then my Sandick ultra II. Over all a nice card for you DSLR Camera.
Don't format the card when you clear it off!!!!! [Posted on 2008-06-15]
This is a great card, would have gotten 5 stars if it didn't go from a 16gb card to an 8gb card. Thanks!
Word of advice, when clearing the card off, DO NOT FORMAT IT, delete everything.... My card is now only 8gb and trying to reformat it on OS X or WinXP still pushes it to only 8gb. I have no idea how to restore the full amount of space...
Other than that, the card is fine. I just wish I had the other 8gb now...
16 GB Transcend CF Card [Posted on 2008-07-03]
I bought this card just to make videos with my Fujifilm S9000. Fuji, or any other camera manufacturer will likely tell you that they have no experience with supersize cards like this for video purposes. Took it on vacation and the only problem was with the camera time counter. It resets to the maximum available video time after each scene is taken. Based on the camera recommendations for video time with smaller cards, you can easily extrapolate to how much time you'll actually get with this card. In my case it was four hours. So.....if you don't really care how much time you have left and can extrapolate from smaller cards this thing works wonderful. I got about 1 1/2 hours of vacation "footage" with no problems at all.
Highly recommended.
Great for MP3s [Posted on 2008-08-22]
I bought this card because I wanted an MP3 player with a huge hard drive, but I didn't want to pay hundreds of dollars for something that I couldn't drag and drop music into without going through a 3rd party (i.e. iTunes.) I already own an ipaq pda, which has a Windows music player and a CF slot. This card works perfectly! It does seem to take forever to load music, but since I loaded up about 50 cds at the same time, I guess it had to take a while.
I haven't tried it in my camera, so I don't know how quickly it will take pictures, but for MP3s, this is perfect!
