I used the card in a Canon 20d and Canon 40d. First one failed, only lost one picture. Kingston sent me a replacement no problem, now the second one is failing. A good warranty will not replace lost pictures. Not worth it.

I can't comment on long term performance, but in the relatively short time I've used this card, I've taken lots of pictures, downloaded, erased, and reformatted the card enough times that I can say it performs as expected.

Nikon D100 – A 4 gig card was only a wild dream when my aged D100 was built. This 4 gig Kingston card works like a charm in the D100 and gives me over 400 raw or 1,100 fine jpeg shots. I have experienced absolutely no problems with the card.

Comments about Kingston Technology Kingston Technology 4 GB, 133x Elite Pro Compact Flash Memory Card:

I purchased two of these 4gb cards for [$] each. I have used both cards in my Sony a700. I've always used Sony and Sandisk brands, but the cost of these cards was too good to pass up. So far they have worked great in both my camera and my computer. The read and write times have been good (as expected for this speed of card). They both work as good as my Sony card with the same read and write speed.

Comments about Kingston Technology Kingston Technology 4 GB, 133x Elite Pro Compact Flash Memory Card:

Great product and great value compared to some pricier name-brand products. I've not had any problems, the card is fast, and I've shot and downloaded thousands of photos from my first Kingston 4G memory card. I'm currently using this with a Sony A700 which can gobble up memory in high quality JPEG settings. I have not used this card with RAW settings.

Comments about Kingston Technology Kingston Technology 4 GB, 133x Elite Pro Compact Flash Memory Card:

I use Kingston Compact flash cards exclusively when shooting portraits and weddings. I've never had a problem with the cards (I have at least 8 of them). That hasn't always been the case with other makes. When your shooting professionally you want a card that you can trust. To this point Kingston has always delivered.

Comments about Kingston Technology Kingston Technology 4 GB, 133x Elite Pro Compact Flash Memory Card:

While using the card with a Canon 5D, the card locked up while shooting a quick succession of photographs.
Even though the camera could still fire, no images were being saved, losing about 5 images.
The card will not read in any device now.

I used two of these cards for a wedding and had no problems. Never had to wait for the card to catch up writing the data. I will be buying many more of these before I shoot my next wedding. Excellent product and way cheaper than the other brands. I prefer this to the Sandisk cards that I've used.

Comments about Kingston Technology Kingston Technology 4 GB, 133x Elite Pro Compact Flash Memory Card:

Thank god I read a review about the unreliability of the kingston 4GB card before I shot my last wedding. I immediately ordered a new Sandisk card and used the Kingston in one of my back-up cameras. I took about 60 shots with that camera during the wedding and was able to view them in the camera but when I went to download them into my computer everything was gone. Thank god I used the sandisk for my main camera. I have been shooting weddings for approx 15 years and I came very close to having to tell the bride that I didn't have any picures for her for the first time. I sure hope I can make it to the end of my career without having a memory meltdown! The kingston card is now in the trash where it belongs.

Comments about Kingston Technology Kingston Technology 4 GB, 133x Elite Pro Compact Flash Memory Card:

I have compared side by side with SanDisk Extreme III cards in my 40D - no difference. Unloading these through a high-performance card reader to my hard drive, no difference. Price? Big difference. Time will tell regarding durability, but so far I'm glad I bought them.
