 Do you like tears? July 31, 2010
The reason for my title is simple: do you want to cry after a photo shoot? You will be if you don't have a second card. I have a second card--thankfully. At least now I know that all of my photos aren't ruined.
Let me relate a little story for you. First, I'm sure you're wondering if I've done a little research before purchasing this card. Well, I'd like to actually start there. This card went on sale in the Gold Box and I bought it hoping to save a little money. However, I had already read on this card because I was planning on purchasing a Sandisk Extreme III 16 GB class 10 card, because it seemed more reliable. I had already read the bad reviews about how this card was used with a Canon T1 and T2 on several sites and how it was having trouble with the data. I have a Canon Rebel XSi and thought I had a good chance of it working for me. I figured man there are quite a few bad reviews, but there are also many more good reviews. I usually pay attention to the bad ones. The sale changed my mind. I figured, "Hey, this might be worth trying out at least."
I was wrong.
I've had several SDHC cards before this one. I had several 8GB Transcend cards that I bundled when I sold my last camera, plus a 16GB Transcend card that I retained for my new camera, because it had proven reliable. I still have this card. I was planning on putting it on backup, because it's only a class 6. I wanted something faster.
I was thinking last weekend before I went to the beach with my girlfriend and her son that I was so thankful the Patriot card arrived early. It arrived and I had my girlfriend format the card for me (under my supervision to make sure she got it right) with my camera. We got to the beach and I wanted to try a few shots. Well, I took about 20 random shots and some of them were showing up half-done and some were just showing up with ? on my LCD screen in the review. I figured that I just would not risk it and put my Transcend back in for the weekend. The shots on the Patriot did not come out. All of my Transcend shots (all 700 of them) came out just fine.
I thought to myself, "Self, I should really just take this home and format it on my computer." I did. I went home and as soon as it was in my computer I gave it a good, long format.
Well, today was my nephew's birthday party. Yes, today. As in the date of this review. Again, I decided to try it out and if I had problems with it I would just switch to my Transcend card. I started taking pictures with a fast shutter speed and my reviews were coming up nicely. I didn't have any ? marks this time in my review screen. Everything seemed to be going wonderfully. I took about 300 pictures and I reviewed a couple and I noticed a ?. "Oh no." was all that was running through my mind. I took the card out. I put my Transcend in. I took 97 pictures with my Transcend. All of my Transcend pictures came out fine.
My Patriot pictures? Out of 300 I salvaged about 20 that are going to require editing. I had no indication this time that something was wrong until I had snapped most of my shots.
Yes, I'm very upset. No, I don't want this to happen to you.
You know what the other tab is I have on my Firefox right now? Amazon returns. Don't let yourself get that far.
 Cant tell if it's fast or not since it corrupts half my photos July 26, 2010
I thought that shooting in RAW was too much for this guy to handle because so many of my photos were coming up corrupted, especially in continuous mode. But then i switched to JPEG and got the same issue.
this card is NOT meant for use in cameras. I have a Canon Rebel XSi and will be buying an 8 GB sandisk extreme III (class 6, not class 10).
you dont need class 10 cards for DSLR's unless you have something like the nikon d90 (or better ;-)
i'll try to get my money back from craigslist
 Perfect SDHC Flash Memory Card July 23, 2010
Great price for a 16 GB class 10 (very very fast) SD card. Great for cameras with HD movie and 12 or more Meg Pix.
Works good and fasat July 22, 2010
I like this card and it is faster than my other 8GB class 6 Patriot SDHC card. Price is good and quality is good.
Failed to work in Canon July 16, 2010
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought two of these for my new canon vixia high def camcorder and they did not work with the camera, one of the cards was able to record for a few seconds but then there would be an error. The other card completely failed to work in the camcorder. They worked in my SLR Pentax but I did not test anything else since the cards were not usable for my needs. Amazon has amazing return policy and it was the most pain free return i've ever done online.
