Sandisk Extreme III2009-06-21
Fast! Reliable! I use this card in a Nikon D90 and the speed of this card was truly amazing. Of course the camera is no slouch either. I had been using an older CF card in a point and shoot camera so I really do appreciate the quickness between shots of this card. I would reccomend this product to anyone.
Sandisk Extreme III 8GB SD Memory Card2009-06-06
I purchased a couple of these cards to use with my new Nikon D90 DSLR based upon other reviews I've read, and the camera manufacturer's recommendations. So far, these cards are performing flawlessly. They are fast enough to keep up with the demands of the D90 - even when I record 24fps video clips. They're a little pricey, but fit the bill if you have a very demanding application like a fast DSLR, or video camera.
If only my memory was this dependable.2009-05-17
Recently I purchased a Nikon D90 and I needed a memory card to go with it.
I was a click away from getting the much cheaper Transcend card with the environmentally friendly packaging that Amazon has been pushing.
But in the end I went with the Sandisk because it's what I use in my other digital cameras and I've never had a problem with them.
Maybe the Transcend is just as good, I don't know. I certainly would have proffered the "green" wrapping.
I do know that I've never had a problem yet with a Sandisk card. I stayed with a proven winner and so far I'm happy.
Fast and reliable2009-05-13
These extreme III cards are simply awesome. Super fast and very reliable. A little pricey but worth every penny in my opinion.
Best SDHC card2009-04-20
SanDisk Extreme series cards have been the best since they came to the market. These are the only cards I will rely on. 16/8/4 GB 30mb/s cards you can be confident in. I carry 2 8GB cards and 2 2GB 20mb/s cards as a backup. If something were to happen these cards come with recovery software that works. I've actually used the software on a Transcend card I occasionally use when I'm too lazy to empty these to my computer. I've never had to use recovery on the SanDisk itself though.
This card easily keeps up with a D90 w/o battery grip. You may notice a slight pause after 12-13 shots equal to maybe 1 full missed frame while shooting in fine jpeg. You will probably miss a frame about every 6-8 shots if shooting in RAW. If you're shooting RAW+JPEG you don't care about speed anyway :p

Digital camera batteries
Batteries are vital for all photography and makiing sure that you have a spare set is essential if you intend to take alot of pictures. Print digital also recommend that when deciding upon a digital camera keep in mind what sort of batteries it takes. Does it take rechargeable batteries, are the batteries built and do you have to plug it into the mains, or does the camera only take standard batteries, if so then it can become exspensive if you are a keen photographer and use the camera alot. There are three types of rechargeable batteries: NiCD, NiMH and Lithium-Ion. Nickel Metal Hydride are the most popular rechargeable batteries at present. They hold more charge than their counter parts NiCD and don't suffer from memory effect. The one small down fall of these batteries is that they will loose a small amount of charge even if they are not being used, so be sure to check the batteries before using them. When you purchase a new digital camera make sure to ask what type of battery ...

" For a list of all the ways technology has failed to improve the quality of life, please press three." - Alice Kahn This quote is certainly applicable to consumer electronics. From the very first commercially produced radios to the latest in high-definition television technology, the manner in which the components used to deliver our news, music, movies and entertainment are interconnected seems to have escaped logic. For both the newcomer and the old hand alike, connecting equipment in the most efficient and effective manner can be a painful chore. It is hoped this article will improve your background knowledge concerning potential A/V system connection schemes and where each is most appropriate.
