Product Description

Product Description

SanDisk Extreme III CompactFlash is designed for serious professional photographers who demand one of the fastest, more rugged and more durable memory cards on the market. Professional photographers who work under less than ideal conditions expect more from a flash memory card. More speed. More performance. More reliability. SanDisk’s new Extreme III card delivers everything you want plus a whole lot more!

That’s because only SanDisk Extreme III memory cards feature innovative ESP Technology for one of the fastest speeds and higher performance. ESP stands for “Enhanced Super-Parallel Processing”. Simply put, it means you are getting one of the fastest read/write speeds available – speed you’ll definitely appreciate whenever you find yourself shooting and storing pictures in harsh environments, extreme temperatures or at high altitudes.

Every SanDisk Extreme III CompactFlash card comes with RescuePRO® so you can recover images, documents, mail, video, music – just about any digital file, with ease. Built with leading-edge media recovery algorithms, RescuePro lets you preview recoverable data before you try to retrieve it. With RescuePRO’s unique recovery algorithm for MPEG audio and MPEG video recovery (MPEG-1/2/3) what you see, and what you hear, is what you can recover.

Rely on SanDisk Extreme III cards when speed is critical to getting the right shot.

I wanted a bigger and quicker card to use with a Nikon D200, this does just the job, downloads to computer are so quick now, great. About 450 images on Fine JPEG.
I managed to delete a needed picture from the card and computer. The recovery software saved the day. Hint: Just ignore the 135 year wait timer but it does take a few minutes to rebuild the images.
Excellent value for money and I would buy it again.

These are excellent cards - Why would anyone want to put all their eggs in one basket (one 8gb card) and risk that card going faulty when you can easily swap cards and use 2 cheap 4Gb cards and half the risk of loosing all shots from a session if disaster strikes (its a bad deal if both cards go faulty together). In addition 2 x 4Gb cards are significantly cheaper than 1 x 8Gb card.

I bought a 4Gb Sandisk Extreme IV card a while ago and paid over £70 for it - to be honest i cannot tell the difference in write times when shooting burst mode on a Nikon D300 between the Extreme IV and the Extreme III, the same can be said for downloading the images to my iMac, no noticable difference in speed.

My cards came in their full retail packaging and included the Sandisk Rescue Pro software which can help recover deleted files from a drive. I have previously used this on a PC to recover deleted data files and it worked great. Unfortunately the 8cm disc supplied will not play in an iMac so you would need to be able to copy to a full size CD to be able to use.

These cards at the present prices (June 08) cannot be beaten ....

Excellent card 28 May 2008
I bought this from amazon when it was £21.50, see it has now dropped to £17.99. Using it in a canon eos400d and have found it to be excellent. Stay way from Ebay when buying memory cards as there are so many fakes around which have slow write speeds. I would not hesitate to buy more of these cards from amazon.

Had it four years now...
and it still works fine. It has been used in my Canon 40D all that time. When I transfer piccys to the PC I remove it and plug it straight in the computer (its faster). Read more

Love it!
Having been converted to shooting predominantly in RAW now, I soon realised my pathetic 1 & 2 GB cards were not up to the job, giving a measly hundred or so images. Read more

Still does the job
Big enough to hold a couple of hundred RAW shots, and fast enough to not be the bottleneck when continuously shooting. Read more

Safe and reliable
Afraid of losing a lot of data from using a bigger card, I use a lot of these in my Canon 50D. So far, I have had no problems at all; they work very quickly and simply. Read more

Total rubbish
Seemed fine, but after relatively little use the card died. No partition found error and reformatting did not resolve the issue. Had to throw it in the bin. Avoid this card.
