User Submitted SanDisk SDCFX3-016G-A31 16 GB Extreme III CompactFlash Card (Retail Package) Reviews (cont...)Date: 2007-11-09 Great CF card if you shoot a lot all at once I own several pro DSLR Nikon and Canon cameras. This card works great with all of them and has a relatively fast write capability, although it is not the fastest card that I own. I can save about 4000 high quality JPEG or about 1200 RAW images on this card. This is very handy if you shoot a lot of photos such as in car racing, sport events, air shows etc, as I do. You never have to worry if you have enough room therefore I highly recommend this CF card. The only thing I do not like about the card that sometimes I find it just not fast enough, my camera's buffer fills up quite quickly and wish it would be as fast as the Extreme IV series. Date: 2007-09-26 Extreme III CF - Cool Amateur Photographer: I haven't had a chance to fully explore the depth of this Compact Flash, but my plan is to start shooting in RAW on my Canon Rebel XT. This flash will give me plenty of room to experiment. Shooting at High Quality I've shot over 1000 photos and the quality and speed is great. Date: 2007-08-31 Works great with my Nikon D2X I cannot give it 5 stars as it is slower than my Lexar 4GB UMDA card, but than it has 4 times the capacity. In fact it will take 2200+ high quality largest JPG or about 600 RAW photos. Other negative factor is that it comes with recovery software which does not work with Vista, only XP! While my Lexar came with recovery software that supports both Vista and XP. Date: 2007-07-29 Awesome I have a canon rebel xti and the compact flash card holds about 3500 pictures. Im taking it to my trip in Europe and there won't be any problem of having to bring a lap top or a hard drive compact flash reader because it holds so many pictures....i love it Date: 2007-05-07 compatability a major problem I called Sandisk before I bought this card and after 20 or 30 minutes of them "researching" they assured me that any "type II" card reader can read the card. After, shopping among many reader versions. I purchased one that said it would read a type II" card. When it would not read the extremeIII 16gb card, I called Sandisk back and they then let me talk to someone who actually knew what he was talking about. He said sorry we gave you misinformation, but there is nothing we can do about it. Except, SELL me one of their card readers of which there is only ONE usb version that will read this card, and not cheap. I mistakenly went on Sandisks reputation, which is apparently evolving. I recommend to buy several smaller more compatable cards. I currently have no way to access any of my raw images on this card, as the software will only download the jpgs from the camera. Lots of lost time and effort.
