Fast product for action sports
I really like using this product for taking shots of hockey. When I use the multiple shots on the camera, the card reads the shots quickly; there is not much "lag" time.

This is a very fast memory card. It can keep up with my Rebel XT shooting 3fps.

Good cards, but poor warranty service from Sandisk
I have five of these Sandisk Extreme III 2GB CF cards. They are very fast and have mostly been reliable (hence the three-star review). However, there is more to this product than merely the item itself. The other question is how efficiently the manufacturer handles things in the event of failure. I recently had one of these cards fail and I have been disappointed by Sandisk's warranty service.

The situation was very straightforward. The card failed. I lost only one photo. No data needed to be recovered. I had all the information available, including a copy of my receipt to prove that I am the original owner. After two weeks, I am still sending follow-up messages to Sandisk asking them for a return authorization, and getting no response. Sandisk has not actually declined to replace the card -- but their process, which was already rather slow, has led to a dead-end.

Several years ago, I had a Lexar CF card fail. It was a quite different experience. They replaced the card promptly. I recognize that all electronics products can fail -- but the real test is how well the manufacturer responds when that happens. My next CF card will be a Lexar, not a Sandisk.

Great Card
While I have had many compact flash cards of varying sizes this card for the size and price was a much better bargain then those of the others. A lot of storage with a little price. Never had an fault or error and don't think I ever will.

good product
this is a good, reliable product. The only disappointment is that I expected to get more photos onto the card. It seems like a lot of space is used up on applications and is not available for pictures.
