There isn't much to get exited about with memory sticks. Works fine in my Sony camera. I don't have a way to benchmark the memory to validate the speed claims so I'll just say that it seems able to keep up with my cameras burst mode and there is plenty of room for the occasional video clip. I think the capacity would last most snap happy people over a holiday. Transfer speed from the camera to my PC is reasonable. No complaints.
