Secure Digital - memory card, 2gb


I bought this for my Canon digital camera. The camera shoots photos up to 8Megs and does high-resolution video as well. I originally had a 256MB San Disk SD Card in there because that used to be considered a BIG memory card. It worked fine, but I was constantly pulling it out to dump the photos or videos onto my computer so I could take more. At an event where I was taking lots of photos, I would literally run off to dump the card and I would limit my use of the video since it takes a lot of memory.



I finally bought this Kingston card because I saw it on sale. It works fine as well and I can't tell you how nice it is not to have to constantly be worried about whether I've got enough memory left and will miss a photo or video shot! This thing has so much memory that at times when I'd usually be thinking about dumping the data onto my computer I find I can still take hundreds of photos or lots of video (after all, it's about 10x more memory)! This has really been a big improvement for me and I'm really glad I bought it.



With the price of memory these days this card is extremely affordable. If you're working with anything less and/or ever worry about having enough memory in your camera, I would just go ahead an invest in this. It's really worthwhile!



NOTE: I'm writing here about the plain Kingston 2GB SD card. I've noticed Amazon sometimes groups reviews of similar items so you might see this posted under one of the premium or high-speed Kingston 2GB SD card listings. My only comment is that I've never noticed any significant lag or delay using this in my digital camera for either photos or video. If it's there compared to the premium cards, I can't tell the difference. This includes when there are few photos on the card and when the card is almost full. YMMV.

Amazon made a horrible mistake, they gather the reviews from all kinds of kingston SD in one page. so when u look at Kingston 2GB SD, u will be surprised ! that it is being ranked 4.5 stars and people are speaking about its high speed even it has a 1.5 MB/Sec write speed! these high ranking comes from Kingston 2GB Ultimate !!!! I was fooled by this. So be CAREFUL, the reviewers here are speaking about totally different products.

This review is for the Kingston 2GB Secure Digital Memory Card (SD/2GB). I received this memory card free as a bonus from Amazon when I bought my digital camera, a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ8K. I have been putting this chip through its paces for weeks now and I have to say it holds a LOT of pictures and is extremely reliable. I have not had any issues with my camera loading images into the memory nor have I had any problems pulling them back out onto my pc. For around 20 bucks, this is a fantastic memory card at a great price... I highly recommend this product!

What can I say, this is a memory card, it has a ton of space for digital camera usage, and it works exactly like it's supposed to. My camera takes better than 1 picture per second at over 4MB/picture and there doesn't seem to be any lag as a result of the memory card. I highly recommend this product.

I bought this SD Card for my Canon S3 IS no more than a month ago, and it doesn't work anymore. It lasted for a very short period of time, I took care of it, kept it in my camera, but when I went to take pics, it said "Memory Card Error" I do not recommend this card to anyone who is looking for a decent card. I would go with a ScanDisk in the future. I hope this helps you guys.

I bought this memory card in conjunction with a digital frame as a Christmas present for my Mom. I spent days loading hundreds of pictures onto this card, and when I went to put it into the frame, discovered it was corrupt. It erased the hard drive of the digital frame, and erased everything I spent precious time creating on the memory card. I do not reccommend it at all.



I gave it one star because I had to, but it doesn't even deserve that.

I just bought this card for my Canon SD1000. When I popped in my card to see how many pictures it would hold, I was surprised how many it would store. So far, it has worked well and seems to be quick for my purposes. I have Kingston compact flash cards and I have not had any problems with them.

I've shopped around at the "brick and mortars" and this was the best price I found for a 2GB SD card. My local Super WalMart had a no brand name 1GB card for the $19.99. Great for everyday usage (I use this primarily for my Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ7, A GREAT CAMERA FOR THE PRICE!).

It works realy great, I red some other reviews before buying this product and I can only say that this product is preaty fast and does realy works and for the price I paid its even more than enought to say that its just awsome. great delivery time.

I bought this 2GB Kingston Secure Digital memory on Amazon for about $13 (in March 2007), which I believe is a great price. The only thing I was worried about was the quality, but so far, it has worked great in my Canon A460. The videos look great and pics are great too. No complains.
