You just can’t go wrong at this price. It is amazing how a fast memory card transforms a camera – it really does make a huge difference. Already had a 2gb version of this in our previous camera, this new 4gb has just gone in our new TZ5 and it is possible to set the camera in infinite burst mode, hold down the button, and it just goes on forever taking a picture about every 0.5 – 0.75 seconds, it never slows down. Amazing speed from this card. It does indeed come with a dinky little USB reader and a carrying pouch and a CD with recovery software. Don’t hesitate, just buy it!!!

First off this card is very good . it’s fast , reliability is sound and it’s good value . if you buy one you will not be disapointed . Second: If you want the USB reader and a CD with recovery software make sure you check the listing fully . I thought thats what i had ordered but i only got the card . there is one with the USB reader and recovery software with it and you will find it here ” Sandisk 4gb Extreme 3 SDHC Card in retail packaging ” . It was my own fault for not reading the listing carefully !!! . This was still a good buy at £13.84 and it gets 5 STARS ..

The best price vs speed memory card that is currently on the market.

BUT!!

Be sure that your device will take SDHC SD cards, before buying it…!!

I’ve got mine in a Canon 450d, which works wonderfully with it.

Super Fast memory, quicker than the digital cameras internal (Samsung NV20). Performs very well and for the price an absoloute steal! No problems.

I tested the speed of this card vs a much cheaper Kingston 8gb card and after looking at the results you will wonder if it is worth it at the price. Both the tests below are sequential tests with would be typical of the usage of this card in a digital camera.

The first test was done with an Integral Card Reader.

8gb Kingston class 4

Read 16 mb/s

Write 7.2 mb/s

4gb Sandisk Extreme III

Read 16.3 mb/s

Write 13.7 mb/s

The second test was doing using the benchmark function of CHDK on a Canon Powershot SX110 IS.

8gb Kingston class 4

Read 7.3 mb/s

Write 6.1 mb/s

4gb Sandisk Extreme III

Read 9.3 mb/s

Write 7.8 mb/s

Personally I don’t think the price premium is worth it but if you need this for professional usage then perhaps it will be.
