Excellent card
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.

Make sure you get the right card
The card is excellent. The one star is a warning. Make sure you get the right card when ordering from Marketplace sellers. Once I have received a complete fake and twice I have received inferior SanDisk cards.
The fake card came with a SanDisk label but no packaging and there wasn't a serial number printed on the card. It took ages for the camera to read and...

Buy it!, 9 Aug 2007
Frankly, the buck stops here.
Top card, top price, reliability the best, and excellent size even if you're particularly trigger happy...
I use it with a Canon EOS 400d, on largest jpeg (depending on aperture etc etc) is over a 1000... RAW around 500

Quick and error-free, 10 Dec 2006
Bought for use in a solid-state MPEG-2 video recorder, write speed was critical. This card has not disappointed, handling continuous writing of 9Mbit/sec MPEG-2 up to a file-size of 3.6Gb. Tests using HD benchmarking software show that it should perform well beyond this, in line with the x133 claims from Sandisk.
The supplied recovery software promises to extract data from just about any form of card corruption. Fortunately I've not had to use it yet and I hope it isn't needed, but it is a nice feature all the same. The neoprene carry-case is a nice idea and will take two CF cards in their protective plastic cases - not exactly earth-shattering in it's use but another nice touch for a top-of-the-range card.
I will certainly be buying another one.

Quality - buy it, 12 May 2007
Bought one of these baby's for my new Canon 350d for [...]earlier in the year. Its fast, its reliable, just put it in the camera and forget it. I thought it was well worth the money then, so as the price comes down, its a bargian. If you need a CF card, stop messin around, buy this one, it rocks!

Sandisk Extreme III Compact Flash , 12 Jun 2008
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 ....

SanDisk CompactFlash 4 GB Extreme III, 4 Jul 2007
Bought this card because of the reviews, ordered from Emartbuy. Execellent service direct and great price. You also get a recovery disc as well. Using with a Canon 350D on highest JPG setting, the number of pictures available goes off the scale over 999. As RAW about 460.

Great speed and great recovery, 3 Mar 2008
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.

Good value, 1 April 2008
Those cards use to cost an arm and a leg but nowadays the 4Gb is probably the best value per GB. This had worked flawlessly since around a year through a few full capacity. One can notice the speed difference with a generic card (even Sandisk) in nparticular when shooting in burst.

Excellent purchase... A MUST FOR THE PHOTOGRAPHER., 16 Jun 2008
I bought this at a very good price £16 after reading other customer reviews.
I also have the 2GB SanDisk CF card as a back up, when out photographing with my Canon 400D. This card have a fast data download and even comes with a zip up pouch to protect up to two CF cards. Excellent purchase at a good price...
Even comes with a rescue disc........
Delivery was one day with Amazon Prime Delivery ( which i haven't regreted signing up for, saved a small fortune in delivery costs in just two weeks.)

Fast reliable storage, 16 May 2008
I bought this card as a replacement for a 1Gb compact flash card from two years ago. Good to see Moore's Law in action - this card is faster and has four times the capacity for an even lower price! More than sufficient storage for my Canon DSLR, with the number of highest resolution pictures exceeding the camera counter limit of 999, and should be future proof for another couple of years. Highly recommended.
