My Canon loves the 8 GB SDHC card
I recently purchased a Canon Powershot A720IS digital camera that is capable of recognizing and using up to 2 TERRABYTES of memory card (in the future) so I wanted to get the largest memory card I could install for now. I wanted to use the camera both on dry land and with an underwater housing for shooting stills and video on dive trips. Camera specs said an 8 GB SDHC card would record one hour of hi res video at 30 fps. Or nearly 2300 hi res stills at 8 megapixels.
A test of the Tr...

Super fast, works great with Canon TX1
I was worried about getting a fast card for my Canon TX1 to save video at (the manual says it needs 20 mb/s transfer rate to do full resolution video). It certainly keeps up with my camera, no problem whatsoever.

In response to the few bad reveiwers
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: This is a class 6 SDHC card that functions at class 6 speeds
It is 8GB (8 billion bytes)
When you stick in in a computer it does pop up at around 7.45GB because computers read 1k as 1024 and 1m as 1024^2 etc... so they think that 8GB is more than 8 billion bytes, this is the case with all storage devices.
I've used this card in my friends Nikon D3x and it works great, can shoot as fast a...

Used in Treo 700p and in USB Card Reader
This 8GB SDHC is my second Transcend SD card. My first was an 1GB SD.
After having used some real slowpoke doozies in my Treos (namely Ritek, PNY, and "generic" cards of capacities between 1-4GB), I would rate these as good or better than SanDisk Ultra II's for quality and speed. The 1GB 120x Transcend SD card seemed almost as fast, but this Class 6 SDHC card is the fastest SD card I've ever owned. Saving 300k photos is almost instant and so is switching between apps and email s...

Great Value
Got this on amazon for my Canon tx-1. The extra space allows for approx. 50min of high def video without having to worry about switching cards. Card works as expected, and considering I almost bought a similar card at Best Buy for $149, you can't beat the price!

8 GB Transend SDHC memory card--very pleased
Worked 1st time in Canon SD950 IS Powershot camera. Great capacity (9,999+ pictures at snapshot resolution--over 1,400 at highest resolution--at 12.1 mega pixels). However, had to verify (800 # telephone call to Canon) that the camera supported high capacity SD memory cards, which was not readily apparent on the camera owner's manual. Very pleased with the performance.

Reader support in laptops
You may wan't to know this:
Card is fine, but many laptop readers don't support > 2GB, so you have to use camera and USB-cable to get 8GB.

works great in a D-80
I bought this card to use in my Nikon D-80 . This is one of the best SDHC
cards when it comes to taking multiple 9 meg raw pics. I found the limits of many other recommended cards but not this one.

Don't Let This Happen to You.....
It's great to have 8GB of memory but it is a double edged sword. Today after using this card for only the second time, it failed on me. I lost almost 200 precious images - gone forever. I am what you would call an enthusiast or hobbyist. I love photography and spend every spare minute, which is very seldom these days, pursuing my passion. So I do a fair amount of experimentation. These cards are great when they work - but if they fail you even once - the results can be catastrophic. Maybe...

Excellent Mini Hard Drive equivalent
This card is able to hold a complete DVD movie, thousands of songs/photos, or just serve as a backup device for one's files.
It operates very well - I now have purchased 3 and with each use its value becomes more apparent.
One word of caution - even though most laptops and systems have an SD card slot, older computers may not be able to recognize or write to this card. Make sure your system has the ability to read SDHC configured products.
If you do not...
