Summary: Lexar 24x CompactFlash Cards
Review: I bought a Lexar 256MB 24x CompactFlash card to use with a new Nikon CoolPix 4500 for a recent trip to Bulgaria and Istanbul. In addition to the 24x card, I also used a Lexar 80MB 8x and a SanDisk 64MB standard card. In 3 weeks, I shot nearly 2000 4 megapixel images and noticed TWO major advantages and strengths with the 24x card.1.) Images are saved faster.
2.) Battery life improves as a result. I am extremely happy with this card and am buying a second to replace a pile of smaller, slower cards.

Summary: Great card and fast for saving images!
Review: I've been using the Lexar 24x card for a few months now and have no problems whatsoever to date. The difference between this card and the cheapo 4x cards is really noticeable when saving images to the card - and with the guarantee, it's well worth the extra money. I felt even better too when I saw a professional photographer changing cards - and saw the same brand (but instead a 1GB card - a little out of my price range :) )!

Summary: BEWARE!!!
Review: You should be aware that memory cards w/ Write Accelerated Technology (like this one) only perform faster in Write Accelerated enabled cameras. The following is directly from Lexarmedia.com: "Current cameras supporting Write Acceleration Technology All Kodak Professional cameras and pro camera backs, such as the DCS Pro Back 645, DCS Pro Back Plus, DCS 720x, DCS 760, DCS 760m and DCS 14n
Nikon D1x, D1h, D-100 (Requires camera firmware upgrade by Nikon. See Nikon's web page for more details) and D2h
Sanyo DSC-MZ3
Sigma SD-9
Pentax *ist D
Olympus E1" I purchased the 40x 256MB Lexar CompactFlash and it works no faster than the 8x 16MB Lexar CF which came w/ my Nikon 4300. I only found out about needing a WA-enabled camera after reading the back of the CF package. I find it very misleading that this information is not included in the product description at any of the online stores i shopped. I'm sure the Write-Accelerated cards are great, as long as you have the right camera.
