Summary: How many pictures will it store?
Review: How many pictures will it store? It is the most commonly asked question from digital camera enthusiast but usually the question that is the most difficult to get a straight answer about. Well, considering I worked in the memory industry for over 7 years I can help clarify this perplexing question and do so unbiased as I have since changed industries.

The SANDISK SDMSPD512768 512MB Memory Stick Pro Duo Card, like most 512MB cards, will store on average 568 pictures when used with a 2 megapixel camera, 426 images when used with a 3 megapixel camera, 256 pictures when used with a 4 megapixel camera, 204 images when used with a 5 megapixel camera, and 160 pictures when used with a 6 megapixel camera. These numbers are based off the assumption that you are going to shoot your images at the highest quality JPEG setting available for the camera and understand that they are estimates and may be off by as much as 10 percent due to numerous factors including the complexity of the scene being shot and the compression algorithm used by your specific camera.

I truly hope this review was helpful to you in determining whether this 512MB card is the right capacity for your specific needs.

Summary: Works great, much cheaper than Sony branded, inc adapter
Review: First thing to note: This is Sandisk's new smaller sized Memory Stick. As is, it won't work in almost any Memory Stick enabled device due to the size. HOWEVER, it comes with an adapter, and with the adapter, it works fine. This is a Memory Stick ** PRO ** device, and won't work, with or without the adapter, in devices that don't support the Memory Stick ** PRO **. Check your device for compatibility before buying.

I have used this Sandisk card + adapter in several Memory Stick PRO enabled devices and it has worked flawlessly with them. At the price, it is a steal!

Summary: Horrible Service
Review: I bought this from Amazon on Nov. 27 and to my disappointment, one day later the order was canceled by circuit city siting that it was not in stock.. I go to my local CC and they have plenty of them in stock. Caution: Do not buy anything from Circuit city from Amazon.

I wish Amazon would have just stayed with there own dist. center rather then hiring all these 3rd party vendors. It is really hurting there customer service ratings.

Summary: Known error with this memory stick
Review: I just got off the phone with the technical support for sandisk, and they informed me that my 'reinstert memory stick' error message is a known problem. What's more, they have no solution, and offer nothing in exchange at the moment. They said to 'watch my email for news' about some sort of solution. Unacceptable.

I will be returning this product, and buying a certified sony memory stick. At least, with their product support, the chances are more likely that they'll honor their warrantee and replace the card.

Summary: Circuit City is the worst store.
Review: I ordered this on November 25 for $35 on Amazon from Circuit City store. They cancelled my order next day due to their own pricing error. I can't believe they do this to customers. I will report them to Better Business Bureaus.

Summary: Did not work with Sony Video Camera
Review: I purchased the momory stick for my Sony DCR-PC350. However, the memory stick has rarely recognized by my Sony handycam. When I use genuine sony memory stick, the camera recognizes it. Therefore there must be something wrong with Sandisk side. Don't buy this product. Go for genuine sony memory stick.

Summary: My Luck - This thing works everywhere
Review: I went to a local CircuitCity of black friday & saw this card. I did not know that amazon had a "price mistake" $34 sale on it.

There was only 1 piece & No price tag. I asked the rep & he scanned it at $34. I got it.

Absolutely no problem with this. It works on my Sony digital Camera DSC-P10, camcorder, as well as my 2 memory readers (Zinio & Lexar Jumpdrive Trio) when used with the included adapter. The magic ggate technology reduces the maximum disk space. But the speed and size makes up for it. I want to thank CC & Amazon for this great product.

To the guy who did not get the item: You should have done an in-store pick up the same day when you see a deal like this.

Summary: (3) Memory Stick Pro Duo =)
Review: On the 25th, I ordered 3 of them, picked them up at my local circuit city on black friday. with a price this cheap, you had to get in right away. :( for all who didnt, and yes, it is not fair when the claim an item is out of stock when it is in stock. I would contest it, proving to them that the item is in stock at the time of purchase. You can contact the BBB if you really want to....

Summary: Great Product from a not-so-great seller (Amazon).
Review: The poor rating, in no way, describes the product attributes, which I am sure are great ! This is the only way I can make my disbelief of Amazon's sales policies known more widely.

I ordered this product (like at least two others who have written of a similar experience) during the Thanksgiving weekend and Amazon confirmed the order at the price of USD 35.00 !

Within a day, however, I got an email from Amazon saying that Circuit City was out of stock for this product - which is so NOT TRUE ! If Amazon had come out openly and said that they had screwed up on the pricing, that would have been at least some small consolation for the loss of the order (35 bucks is too cheap for this product, I am sure). But because they chose to do it in an obviously wrong manner, I am quite unsure about my future purchasing from this website.

Summary: Ridiculous Customer Service from Amazon.com
Review: The product is awesome. This review in no way, shape or form is meant to describe the product.

I got this order from Amazon during the thanksgiving sale. I shop a lot from amazon -- but this was the first time they cancelled an order giving no reason at all. This is not something that is expected from this store. I can understand if some mom and pop internet store did this - not amazon.
