To support the higher capacity needs, SD cards are now requiring a different design. The new SD 2.0 specifications which supports 4GB and up, is called Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC). The SD Association has created and defined 3 speed classes to help you identify speed and performance capabilities/minimum requirements of SDHC cards and their SDHC host products. Cards address data (read and write) at numerous speeds. Many factors impede this performance. SDHC guarantees a minimum read and write speed necessary to handle recording high quality video and audio. The maximum card speed may vary, but you can always depend on SDHC cards to meet your SDHC host product's high quality performance requirements.

Star purchase
Bought this in conjunction with an EOS 450d and couldn't be happier with it. The included card reader is very handy, as is the case that comes with it and the card itself is simply brilliant. I used a standard 2gig SD card in the EOS when it first arrived and the Extreme 3 has upped the shoot rate and read/write speed a phenomenal amount.

Extremely recommended.

Fast, good value
Some people believe all the SD cards are the same. But some are really worth the money. The Sandisk Extreme so much faster than other cards in your camera. And it looks very reliable and the goodies (USB card reader etc.) are nice. Good value!

Great performance, stunning price
You just can't go wrong at this price. It is amazing how a fast memory card transforms a camera - it really does make a huge difference. Already had a 2gb version of this in our previous camera, this new 4gb has just gone in our new TZ5 and it is possible to set the camera in infinite burst mode, hold down the button, and it just goes on forever taking a picture about every 0.5 - 0.75 seconds, it never slows down. Amazing speed from this card. It does indeed come with a dinky little USB reader and a carrying pouch and a CD with recovery software. Don't hesitate, just buy it!!!

Last minute purchase
I bought this as a sort of after thought--along with some other items I needed. Great value, great performance, and integrates well. If you haven't tried the Sandisk Extreme III SD 4GB Card, the you don't know what you're missing. Why get just one? This is one of the few products that I've actually recommended to my friends. You can't go wrong for the price and size of this little baby.

Check Your Card Reader's Compatability with SD-HC cards
Great product with usual great Amazon customer care. Card works in all my cameras really well, but there is a compatibility problem with the integrated card reader on my computer. Although my computer is only 9 months old and very hi-spec at time of purchase, the integrated card reader will not read the SD-HC format cards.
It does come with a handy little card reader which plugs straight into a USB port which solves the problem but if you are using it on more than computer you don't always have this with you.
