Comments about Kingston Technology Kingston Technology 2 GB, 50x Elite Pro Secure Digital (SD) Memory Card:

I bought it in May [$]together with my Pentex K100D. However, when I only take about 300 pictures and I found there are some bad clusters in SD card. Camera takes extremely long time when reading or storing images in these bad clusters, so does the PC when exporting pictures. I have checked the SD card using the Disk utility in my MAC, and found 2 bad clusters, even worse, they can't be repaired. So I have to suffer a lot... Sometimes when you are taking excellent pictures, but got missing because it just caught the bad cluster and can't be stored . Terrible... I think I have a very bad luck with this...

Great price but not so great performance

Comments about Kingston Technology Kingston Technology 2 GB, 50x Elite Pro Secure Digital (SD) Memory Card:

I've used Kingston complact flash cards in my Digital Rebel for some time and found them to be excellent. When I purchased a new video camera I decided to get 2 of the 2GB Kingston SD Pro Elite cards for it. After a month 1 of the 2 cards stopped working.

Fortunately the Kingston return process is very easy and cost free. I have no doubt Kingston will make it right--they've always done right by me and my friends!

Comments about Kingston Technology Kingston Technology 2 GB, 50x Elite Pro Secure Digital (SD) Memory Card:

I've had great success with Kingston Technology CF cards so decided to buy 2 SD Pro Elite cards for my new camcorder. Unfortunately 1 of them proved defective after a month of use. Fortunately Kingston provides a lifetime warranty and an easy, cost free replacement process.

While I never look forward to defective merchandise, Kingston does back their products in a way that makes me want to continue to use their products!

Comments about Kingston Technology Kingston Technology 2 GB, 50x Elite Pro Secure Digital (SD) Memory Card:

If you use a card reader to read your images, you can tell the difference on the download speed. Much faster. If you use camera's USB cable to download the images, and your camera is not USB 2.0, then your speed is capped at USB11's sped and you won't gain much from this type of faster cards.

Comments about Kingston Technology Kingston Technology 2 GB, 50x Elite Pro Secure Digital (SD) Memory Card:

I bought this card to take on a vacation to Hawaii, didn't want to run out of memory. This little card captured everything that I aimed the camera at. No problems.

For some reason, I don't understand why, the card isn't recognized by Epson R380 photo printers. Not by my printer, and not the same model printer at an electronics store nearby. But it was recognized in every hp printer that it was tried in. I sent the printer back and kept the SD card.
