Side by Side Comparison of: SanDisk

these is the 5th time I have ordered these I just filled three of the 8gb with all the CD's containing music so I could retrieve some wall space in my home. could not believe I got close to 400 cd on these three. the sound quality is as good as the cd's I have found I could place a three drawer file cabinet full of scanned papers on one and now I am looking to get more to transfer all my DVD movies onto. Scan disk has been consistent in their quality so I turn to them repeatedly. I do not hesitate to recommend them.

I bought these cards to give to someone along with a an older Canon SX-10 IS camera I was no longer using. The recipient of the cards is happy with how they work and I have used these same cards in trail cameras with no troubles. Obviously, they are best used in cameras and devices that do not require high speed recording so if you are looking to use these on a more recent camera you should probably look at higher capacity Class 10 cards. If all you want to do is take photos they will work fine for you, and while I've used them for short videos, there are better choices for not much more money.

I have a canon camcorder that is a couple years old. It has an internal.memory and slots for 2ad cards. The color on the internal memory was never right. The sub slot would not work. I could do a work around with orca but the color was still bad. I ordered an Sd card. It came in a day I told my wife she was about to hear either sounds of complete joy or of the camera smashing against the wall. It worked! Recorded perfectly. Put it in a card reader to download,made a DVD,watched the dvd. The playback was perfect. Your sd card made me have the happiest day I ever had with a computer or camera.

These work fine. I had one go bad once and it turned out to be a bigger deal to exchange it than it was worth, so I just view them as expendable now and go on. Maybe they work for storage, but I just use them to transport images from cameras to hard drives. They seem more reliable than I imply with the sentences above. I suspect water does not compromise them, nor does heat or cold, as far as I can tell. 8 GB holds a lot of one megapixel images. Class 4 is fast enough for several of the items that I own that I use these in (for instance they are fast enough for images from a Primos Truth Cam 35 camera (a.k.a. one type of Trail Cam), which is a type of mounted, motion sensing, day and night camera that can be left out in the elements for weeks or more).

SanDisk is the best! I use SanDisk flash memory cards exclusively with all of my electronics that require them, e.g., trail cameras and other digital cameras. I have never had a SanDisk memory card fail to work and have used them where they were exposed to temperatures ranging from 1 degree (F) to 100 degrees (F) and in the rain and snow. I have several SanDisk memory cards and use them on a daily basis. As a matter of fact, I have four trail cameras operating right now that run 24 hours a day 365 days a year.

We bought these to use in our camera and they both worked exactly as intended. Buying a two-pack allowed us to keep two separate events apart from one another without the photos running together, so that was super convenient. 16GB really is a pretty good amount of storage for us. I hesitate to buy larger storage cards in the event they are lost or damaged. I'd rather lose 16GB worth of data than 64GB etc., but that's just me, a personal decision.

I bought this to accompany the ViewSonic VFD820-50 8-Inch Digital Photo Frame. I can't tell you how many photos it will hold because that depends on the size of each photo, all I can say is that I saved over 30 to it at about 200 KB and didn't run out of room. The price was great and the packaging was well protected and arrived quickly.

Amazon is amazing I have a 2gb sd card that came with my nintendo 3ds. I am planning on playing pokemon sun and with the demo and full game the data would be more than 2 gb. I bought a 32 gb sdhc card from amazon and I was able to transfer my data over to it. I tested it on my nintendo 3ds all my progress is still there. It is perfect, now to be honest I should have upgraded to a sd card that had more space long ago because of all the game I play. I am glad I did it, so I can enjoy pokemon sun and other 3ds games that I buy a hard or digital copy of.

I needed an sd card for my Nintendo 2ds and this has enough capacity to store plenty of games. It was instantly recognized by the Nintendo 2ds and I have not had any issues since.

I tried a micro with adapter and that didn't work. I'm using it in my MacBook Air with solid state drive to increase my overall storage. I was able to move a lot of files here that were cluttering my Mac but I didn't want to necessarily delete them. My Mac just sees this as another drive and I can now put items on it that I may not need now but would like to hang on to if necessary. So, for that it works perfectly and writes fast.

Great authentic product! Sadly I had to return it as my VW memory card slot doesn't support SDXC (SDHC is it's max) but would buy again from seller. Returned it on my own dime a week ago to avoid the $$ of a UPS prepaid label for such a small item, hope the refund/return works out. I wish I hadn't. My mother bought 2 of these today as extra photo storage space for he laptop and husbands tablet. Cheapest fast memory you can buy and SanDisk is the gold standard for SD cards.

Good Flash mem

THEY WORK WELL

I have several camera's these disc's will work in all of them..

They work OK , but, I would buy a faster card like a (10) SDHC flash memory card. You can just about see the rating marked on the card.
I did not know how they were rated at the time I bought them , but, the 8- (4)SDHC work fine. I would like to max out the speed of the camera with a faster memory card like the (10). Next Time America.

I use a lot of SD cards in game cameras left "in the field" to document wildlife movements. The San Disk brand are as good as any, and normally more economical, so I tend to use a lot of them. This was a good price on a good product.

Bought this to use with my camera,a fuji finepix, while I was on vacation. I kept getting a card error signal in my camera. So I returned it and they sent me another one right away, but i got the same error message. I compared it to my other sd cards and this has a different code than my others. So I did try it in my canon camcorder and it worked fine so I will use it for that. Check with your manual for the correct sd card code to see if this will work with it.

Had it since April and it still works. Just a note of advice: remove the SD card from the camera BEFORE the battery, or you could accidentally lose files. Aside from that, works great. c:

I need help. Bought the new 64GB disk for my Canon Powershot A640 camera, went to the beach and redwoods, and took LOTS of great pics with old friends who were visiting. When I loaded camera disk into computer to download the pics, it asks me to format disk. Am afraid that if I do that, I will lose everything. Drats. I need those pics. Once in a lifetime shots. Any ideas? Other than this little glitch, I like the mass amount of photos I can take with this disk.

I feel like these cards are overpriced for this day in age. San Disk cards are always a good buy when you need storage as they are quick and reliable, but since they have been out so long you would think they would have found a way to make them more affordable? I did not get the easy open package, but I did not have trouble opening the manufacture package. It tore open without scissors or any other help. I use mine in my laptop and computer i have had so many computers break it is nice to know my important photos and things are stored on a card like this.

Good qualityThis product was a personal purchase for myself at the normal retail price. I am reviewing it solely because I want to share my experience with other potential customers. I have received no compensation for my review nor do I have any relationship with the seller or manufacturer of this product.

Here is the only reason that I am giving it 4 stars. I do not like the lock slider on the side of the SD card. This might be helpful to a lot of other people for many reasons, but I can say for me, that it hinders my experience. The main reason is that I am a hunter, and use these SD cards for trail cameras, and if someone wants to mess with my camera, they can either steal (which obviously the product can't prevent) or lock my SD card. Not to mention I have accidentally locked one myself and lost 2 weeks worth of pictures because the camera couldn't operate while locked. Hope this helps! Other then that, fantastic product!

Becoming obsolete by Apple and Samsung products

The only complaint I have about this product is that the Flash Memory cards did not come with a plastic storage case. Once you open the package their is nothing to put the memory cards into when they are not being used.

Grandsons needed these for school. Assume they do the job as they have not complained about them

These were advertised as 8 GB.I rec'd two 4GB cards. That's okay, I can use same.

I think these will work fine, I just got the wrong ones. I needed the mini's. I will find a use though.

This card was recommended for use with a Film to Digital Convert I purchased, and made the Converter freeze. Only because the Converter could not accept it. User Manual with Converter states such, but Amazon recommended this card to purchase with the converter. Now I have a perfectly fine memory card without a slot to use it in. I'm sure I'll find a use for it someplace.

Extremely slow with my Canon 80D DSLR — I often have to wait for 20 or 30 seconds after taking pictures to be able to look at them! Granted, I am using raw, so they are about 30 MB each… So this card is probably fine if you're just shooting JPEG's, it avoid for RAW.

I had purchased this flash memory card to make an emergency boot disk for my MacBook Pro. The application, 'Disk Maker X' did not recognize this SDXC card. OK, I'll use the application, 'Techtool Pro' to make a recovery/repair boot volume... This card "worked", but the speed of the interface was w a y t o o s l o w . I should have spent a couple of extra bucks on a USB flash drive instead. This card will be regulated to the camera bag.

The quality of this card is relative to how you plan on using it. I bought it last year to use in my point and shoot digital camera (12MP) while on vacation and it worked perfectly. No, a year later, I've bought a DSLR and found it just wasn't up to snuff. My DSLR (26MP) creates files of too large a size for this card to quickly save. Want to take one picture? Fine, but be prepared to wait 20+ seconds for it to be fully saved onto the card, during which time you will be unable to take any other photos. Want to shoot in burst mode? Forget about it; it's not going to work.What I had been unaware of when I first bought this card is that memory cards have speed ratings which indicate how quickly they can process the data you want to write on them. To further complicate things, there are two types of ratings, Speed Class and Ultra High Speed. Speed classes come in four ratings, C2, C4, C6, and C10, which means they can write data at a rate of 2MB/s, 4MB/s, 6MB/s, and 10MB/s, respectively, or UHS comes in UHS U1 and U3, which writes at speeds of 10MB/s and 30MB/s. The higher the MB/s, the better the card.This card writes at a C4 speed (as indicated by the number 4 encircled by a C on the label). It's a decent speed for smaller files, but considering a RAW photo files can be rather large, if you're shooting high res, RAW files, this is not the card for you. It will absolutely freeze up your camera.If you are interested in an SD card for a DSLR, look at something like the Lexar Professional 600x 32GB SDHC UHS-I Flash Memory Card LSD32GCRBNA600. Since switching to the C10/U1 Lexar, I've been infinitely more happy with my camera. The Sandisk C4 32GB remains in my point and shoot, where it's better suited.

Caution. Be smarter than I was, and make sure that you know what "Class" you need. A Class 4 card may not work in your application.This was for my first camera that didn't use Compact Flash cards. Apparently even the slowest modern CF cards work for video--not so with SD, where you need to be sure you have a fast card--and Class 4 is not a fast card. Works well enough for stills, but Class 4 will not work for video. I ordered in haste, and then had to get another Class 10 card to support video on a DSLR. Not very costly, though, so not worth returning. I now use this card for storage in a slide scanner, and I'll probably take it on trips as backup, but it is not a first line card for me.

I have been using SanDisk cards in my DSLR Canon Rebel for the past three years and have found them to be reliable as far as recording pictures and sound. They are versatile in that it is easy to transfer data to and from them when inserted into my laptop computer. I use them largely for pictures and movies I take with my DSLR (digital single lens reflex camera).ProsCompactLightweightConvenientSmallReliableConsYou don't get 32gb of memory, you get 29.7gb of memory according to my computer. What the rest of the 2.3gb are used for, I cannot say, but that is what you get.Video is usually recorded in MVI format (Apple supported), which is more the fault of cameras like Canon, Nikon and others. So you have to convert the video to MPEG format if you wish to edit it using Windows software (requires a separate program). MVI files are also about four times the size as MOV files or MPEG files are.Transfers are slow for movies but almost instantaneous for pictures. Movie transfers usually take several minutes.These little cards are quite fragile. I recommend handling them with great care. Rough handling, such as "shoving" a card into a slot because you're in a hurry can damage the ultra-thin copper connectors. Dropping and accidental strikes can result in an useable chip and there goes your money. Keep them in their little plastic cases when not in use. Insert them slowly into their slots. Prepare before you take your picture. Be ready to shoot, even for spontaneous pictures.If you slide the little plastic tab on the side, it will render the chip "permanent" until you slide it back into the top position. This makes it impossible to transfer memory away from the chip but allows you the ability to make pictures at your local kiosk such as a Target or Walmart or Walgreens that have such kiosks that accept disks. Once you slide it back, you can transfer data to and from your computer.

The memory card stopped working while I was taking wedding pictures, I was unable to get any of the pictures off the card after it stopped working. I luckily had extra memory cards on me. If you're a photographer, do yourself a favor and invest in good memory cards, these are unreliable.

Always make sure to double check s/h prices first. 11.00 to ship a lightweight 8.00 package is rridiculou.

Disappointed they didn't come in the protective plastic cases like most sd cards come in.

they did not work in my game camera, do not know if they are to large (8) and I need a smaller, will check with the camera specs

Apparently these are micro-sd cards. Would be nice if it said so or was pictured as such.

I cannot get these to work in any of my devices. They're supposed to work in my cameras, but they won't work in either one. I'm not sure what these are meant for, or if they're defective, but they don't work in anything they're supposed to work in. Of all the memory cards I've ever boughten, these are the only ones rejected by every device. It's weird. SanDisk is a good brand, but this pair of cards is useless as near as I can tell for the average person.

Memory card had 3,000 pictures very hard to format the card!

Very slow, compared to my other SanDisk 32 GB cards and reported two error messages during a photo shoot. I was terrified the pictures would not save. Luckily, they did. I formatted the card before the shoot and it took a long time to format it to wipe it clean, after the shoot. I have never had an experience like this from my two other cards of the same company and stats.

Great concept. Very poor design/ application. You have to unscrew it to access the back panel which means taking it off. The UI Interface is buggy at best. It takes several minutes to access the Wi-Fi on the device. When you delete images through the web interface, it evidently does not delete them from the SD card. I bought one, hoping that it was going to be the next best thing, however it needs much much work. Unless they update the firmware and web interface to be more efficient and not take five minutes to download imagery, I will not buy another. It is actually faster to remove the SD card and download imagery the old-fashioned way then it is to use the web interface and wireless utility. It defeats the purpose. Come on Kodiak, you've got a great idea, you just need to package it much better. But it does work. That's about all I can say at this point

Well if U have the patience in waiting for things to copy, then you'll be fine. It rates at about 28gbs (Of actual Space) and copies files onto it at about 4mb a sec, maybe a little faster depending what mood it's in. Trying to copy something that's like 15 gbs onto it though lol...yeah you'll be waiting for at least a good hour. My net can download about 4x faster then what this can do, so yeah...that's pathetic. Been working fine for me otherwise. It's a Class 4 though, what do I expect right. If y'all want something faster, then get a better class version besides 4, the lower then number is, the better usually. Definitely not good to use as a installer for anything as it goes really slow. I don't understand how this thing can have all this memory, yet be SOOO slow, and trust me, it's not the PC haha. I've used this in a regular internal card reader and a USB one. Speed was the same. It didnt work on my friends MAC either. Not for sure what kind it is exactly but I had put a couple of things on it to transfer to his laptop, Popped it in the SD card slot, didnt want nothing to do with it. Didn't even pop up with errors or nothing. He has a 16gb Kingston he tired, worked perfectly, so it wasn't his port. As far as my experience with it though, I don't like it, WAAAAAYYYYYY to slow for my needing haha

I ordered 2 of these (2gb SanDisk-branded SD card), they arrived promptly, and did not function. So I shipped them back for a replacement. Two new cards also arrived promptly, and ALSO failed to work.- Attempting to copy files to the card results in a "disk not found" error.- I tried two different card readers, both of which work perfectly well with other SD cards.- I tried reformatting the cards -- this also failed, with a cryptic error message.- I tried toggling the lock switch -- which did nothing.Shipping these back for a refund.UPDATE -- I ordered a brand new SD card reader, and these cards work with it. They don't work with any reader more than a few years old. I don't know why.

One is working as advertised; one worked once and then quit. Would not buy again.

one of the cards is defective. have it in a camera and it does not record a picture. tried it in other device and it still does not work.
not worth sending back for one card. I don't know if the other card is bad. I don't have the packaging any longer so will put in the trash.

Disappointed in the quality of the last batch I received. We have used SanDisk in the past. The tab to lock the card has broken off, which prevents us from using the card in our camcorder. Thus has happened with 6 of the 8 cards we bought. We tried taping over the area, but the card is too thick to fit in the camera.

One of the memory cards was damaged right out of the package. One of the gold pieces on the back was bent outwards. Cannot use.

Product was not as described in the ad. The advertisement said that it could be used in cell phones this why i made this purchase. This was incorrect. It doesn't fit. I had to make another purchase for the right size. I didn't bother to send this product back for a refund because it was too much of a hassle.

I wasted my money on this because I thought it was a regular SD card. It is not. It only works in devices compatible with SDXC. Has this happened to anyone else.

This doesn't work in my camera that is was supposed to be compatible in and now I went to return it and there is a no return policy. Guess I'll have to reach the descriptions more carefully. Bummer.

Didn't fit the electronics purchased for; returned but deeply sadden that I had to make a 30.4 mile trip to turn in to amazon station when there are several locker stations within a 5 miles radius of my house!

Dead on arrival. identical specs with other brands - SONY and TOSHIB- but this SANDISK was not recognized by my computer like the other brands were. . Now I'm trying to find out how to get a refund for this dud.

The was my first SD card purchase. I got it in the mail quickly. I put it in my new dashcam and everything was fine for a few days. Then it stopped being recognized. I put it in my laptop and it didn't work there either. So I returned it and got a replacement. The second one is working so far but I haven't had it very long. I hope it doesn't fail like the first one did at some point in the future.EDIT 1-1-2016: So the second SD card died on me. It worked for a few months then just stopped working one day. I took it out of the dashcam and put it in my laptop and it would not read. Now I am out of the Amazon return window so I am stuck with a useless SD card. I'm just glad I only had dashcam video on the card and not priceless family photos or something.

With the prices of SD cards now, purchasing anything under a class 10 card is a waste of money. Sure it will hold a lot of data BUT will the new technology you buy next year or the year after even support a class 4 card?Do yourself a favor and do a little research on SD card speed before you buy. TheI learned my lesson, I purchased this to use for a data logger for a Raspberry Pi project and it works fine but for 7 dollars more, I could be using a class 10 SD card for video work.
