 Great Value May 3, 2010
Works fine in my Nikon D40. Seems as fast as my Sans extreme cards, but much cheaper.
Great April 28, 2010
The memory card does what I expected it to do, works great in my camera and gives the extra memory storage space that I wanted.
One of the very few SLC SD cards February 16, 2010
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
What most people are not aware of, is that there are two distinct Flash RAM technologies: one is SLC (single level cell) and the other is MLC (multiple level cell). Without getting into the technical details of these technologies, the consumer should know that MLC offers savings to the manufacturer, because MLC Flash can store more data on the same surface as SLC. However, this saving translates into a net loss for the consumer, as MLC have a rewrite cycle count of 5000-10.000, while SLC have above 100.000 (mostly considered to be around 1.000.000). If you only plan on saving your data just a few times on the same medium, whether it's MLC or SLC will not make much difference. However, if you plan on using it as an external storage in a netbook (such as, keep it in the SD adapter slot continually, and use it as an additional solid state drive, SSD), I would strongly recommend an SLC card.
However, manufacturers have abused the users' ignorance on just how much more reliable SLC is compared to MLC, and have introduced the MLC devices to increase their margins without informing anyone how much worse a deal they get. In this climate of high competition, almost all manufacturers of Flash devices have switched to MLC. Thus it is commendable to find a select few who still offer the option of buying an SLC device.
If you need a larger SLC storage and Compact Flash is an option, I recommend Kingston's Elite Pro CF line of cards - they, too, are made with SLC technology.
 Can't Store Files. Keep Having Errors. January 9, 2010
I have purchased Kingston cards for years and enjoyed their quality. Recently got this card (blue sticker instead of brown) and my camera keeps saying "can't recognize file format". So I put it into the card reader and see what happens. Individual photos show valid file size but when you click the photo file, there is nothing to see. I have reformat this card many times using WinXP utility as well as my own camera.
I started reading reviews from amazon & new egg and found I am not the only one with error files. Someone commented that this problem is due to made in china or taiwan. I don't think it's a valid statement. I have SD cards made in china, taiwan, japan and no problems until I use this 50X Elite Pro.
Works well August 8, 2009
I have one in a cheap underwater camera and another in my Canon SD550. Never a problem with them. My DSLR takes CF though.
