Fast & Reliable

I've never had a failure or corrupt image even once. Not much else to say. They get the job done and do it well.

EXCELLENT CARD

I trust Lexar cards. It is not unusual for me to fill up two or three of these cards every day I am in the field. Never a failure, never a worry!

Great Memory Card

As a sports, wedding & nature photographer, it's great to have a memory card that is reliable, writes fasts with large memory. I have two of the 8GB cards and love them.

Speed?

The extra capacity is nice, but I see little, if any, speed difference with it compared to some of the cheapy cards in my bag.

Working flawlessly after several years

I purchased 4 of these when they first came out to fill my memory needs when in the field and they are still doing a great job. I am tempted to buy some faster ones but really don't need to for my use.

Lexar Compact Flash Card

These are all I use and I have used them for over three years. I have never had any issues. I have never had one fail. Not much more you can say about a flash card except that it is reliable and writes/reads fast.

FAST!

I am glad I opted for this card. I download using a card reader and this is FAST - doesn't take long to upload pictures to my computer for editing. Lexar has always been dependable....and spending the extra on the 300x speed is well worth the investment!

Great Flash card

This flash card is super fast. I use it with my Canon 7D and works beautifully. I recently accidentally left it in my pants and it cycled through the washer and it still works! Amazing. :)

Never gone wrong with a Lexar Card!

I use primarily with my Nikon D300 in RAW format and, with these two 300X cards and a couple of 133X backups, I have all I need for my photo needs. Very reliable; I have never had a read/write failure with my Lexar cards!

Fast and reliable card

I purchased this card in 8mb capacity to check out the performance. I shot with a Canon 5D MkII and the card performed well, giving me many multi photo shots quickly. I will buy this card in a larger capacity now that I am aware of the capability.

Highly recommend this product

I've used the lower capacity devices in the past but with my newer camera equipment, I needed a larger capacity memory storage. The Lexar UDMA gives me the capacity and the write speed I needed. I have never had a problem with any of their products and would recommend them to anyone.

Plays nice with my 5D mkII

I have not done tests for video, but it works without a sweat taking stills! UDMA is the way to go without a doubt! I use 8 gig cards for the simple reason of having the space to take some video if I feel the need between events.

Does what it is supposed to

This is a good card, and it is really fast. I never knew that the card would only show 7.45 usable gigs, but nonetheless, it is a good card.

Card Failed after four weeks lost 300 fi

Only rescued 100 images with the recover software, card is now at Lexar maybe they will be able to rescue them! Have used Lexar before with minimal issues, but this was bad! Spent the entire day shooting fall color in the Adirondacks and lost the files!

I would buy this product again

I own several Lexar CF cards. They are very reliable and I have never had a problem with them. They are a outstanding choice.

Lets hope the second time is good

I purchased two of these for my D700 and in less than a month both cards failed and could not even be formatted. This review is purely based on that experience. I called support at Lexar (which is really Crucial), and they were very helpful. I had my two replacement cards within a week. I have now used them on one shoot and so far so good.

FEATURED REVIEWS

CF with the Umpf I needed

By ANDREAS L.

Just needed a speedy, and reliable card. I have used Sandisk, Kingston, Centon, Trancend, and Sony cards in the past. None of them catches the speed of thsi UDMA card. Sure, it is a little pricey, but you pay what you get for: Speed, Reliability, No Gimmicks, and it even worked without a glitch with my older reader. I was thrilled. This card just whips through the pics transfer where I had to wait before with my other cards. I definitely recommended this card.

Faster and reliable

I really like this Lexar CF Professional Memory card. It is faster than my SanDisk Extreme III 8 GB uses on my Canon 30D and Canon 5D. So far, no image corrupts. Loading and uploading images from the CF card is fast.
