Summary: A Must Have for Digital Photography
Review: When I think back to my Commodore 64, I't hard to believe how much fits on these cards!!! I use this with a Canon Digital Elph S300 and it makes memory a non-issue. Setting the camara on low compression and the highest resolution, I can fit about 150 images on the card. At this quality, I can print photos through Ofoto.com on photographic paper, up to 8X10, and they look like they were taken on 35mm film.

If you set the resolution/compression to place images on the web, 500-1,000 pictures would fit on a single card!!

Summary: Dosen't work with Kodak MC3 nor with Polaroid PDC 700
Review: Zip, Zilch, Nada - Did not work for me!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Works for me
Review: Popped it in my Kodak 3600, turned it on and started taking pics. Works just fine. At the low setting (900x600), the card gives me over 700 pics

Other people may have had issues with San Disk cards being read in a Kodak but since my camera was new enough, it already had the firmware of 1.30 which is what Kodak recommended.

Summary: Works great w/ Kodak DX3600
Review: Kodak released a firmware upgrade for the DX3600 enabling it to use SanDisk cards. I just got my card and it works wonderfully. No problems with speed or errors so far. Plus, it was MUCH cheaper than any other 128MB CF card I've seen, especially of the leading brands.

Summary: Excellent Card for an excellent Price!
Review: I have been very happy with this CompactFlash card. It is used on my Kodak digital camera, and is very fast at saving the pictures. On this one flash card I can hold 307 highest quality pictures (8x10) before I have to change over to the original flash card that came with my camera. I highly recommend spending the extra money to get a 128 MB flash card if you are into digital photography.

Summary: MEGASTORAGE!!! This card works flawlessly.
Review: I was on a trip to Europe this summer. Although I already had two 64 MB SanDisk CompactFlash cards, I bought the 128 MB when I upgraded to the Canon G1. In a minimally compressed mode the Canon can store 72 images on the SanDisk 128 MB card. I actually filled all my cards with vacation photos! Glad I made the purchase. This card has worked flawlessly for me and the price is very reasonable.

Summary: What's not to like?
Review: I popped the 128 MB card into my Nikon Coolpix 880, formatted it, and started taking pictures. It works, it's fast.

Summary: Doesn't work with Kodak DX3500/DX3600
Review: I bought this card for my Kodak DX3600 Camera assuming it would work since the back of the box says "Compatible with all digital cameras". Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be compatible with mine. Every time I took pictures with the card inserted I would get an error message (Unrecognized File Format) when I tried to view them using the camera. And when I tried to browse the contents of the card using my PC all the pictures were listed as having a file size of 0. I returned the card for a new one and still had the same problem. I checked SanDisk's web site and found that they don't list the Kodak DX3600 as being compatible even though the box claims the memory card is compatible with all digital cameras. I also tried it in a friend's Kodak DX3500 and got the same errors. And when I used his PNY memory card in my camera it worked fine so I don't think it was my camera that was the problem.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Could be better...
Review: Disk is a little slower than others I am using. Seems to put photos in a different order than when I took them. Maybe it's camera, not sure. Other cards don't malfunction like this one does though. I get errors on this card where others I don't.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: So it is true, SanDisk, Lexar, and Viking Same Quality!!
Review: I have been researching and researching to determine if the SanDisk, Lexar, and Viking cards all had the same quality standards, read and write speeds, compatibility, etc.

I could not understand why the Viking cards tended to be less expensive (sometimes by quite a large delta), so assumed that there had to be some difference in quality.

SanDisk answered my question yesterday when they filed a lawsuit against Viking Components for purchasing the Lexar internal components for their CompactFlash cards (SanDisk had earlier sued Lexar, too) stating that they are infringing upon SanDisk's patents on the components.

Other than a lot of legal jargon, this tells me that the three cards: SanDisk, Lexar, and Viking are so similar in design, quality, speed, compatibility, etc. that they are able to get into lawsuits about it.

It also tells me one more thing--Lexar and Viking must be SanDisk's biggest competitors because they are the companies they are attacking first.

Kudos to Viking for building a product so similar in design, quality, performance, compatibility, etc. to their competitors but still willing to sell the product at a lower price to the consumer.

P.S. Viking is a very reputable company, I am sure that this matter doesn't deal with them directly. I would assume that it will go back to a battle between SanDisk and Lexar, after all the only thing Viking did was purchase a quality component from Lexar in order to build their flash cards to the highest quality standard.
