- Doesn't fit well in my Canon A75
The memory works fine, but it bothers me every time I have to take it out of the camera, because it gets stuck. However, I have measured it and it is just the same size of the Canon memory which came with the camera and with which I have had no problem. Perphaps it's fat in the middle...

- Very reliable performer . . .
I have two of these cards, and use them primarily in a Canon 10D digital SLR camera.I have had absolutely no problems, either writing data to them or extracting files later.The medium capacity card is very convenient for most digital camera users.For the Canon 10D, a 6 mega pixel camera, maximum JPEG file size at the highest quality setting averages about 2.5MB, and typically about 90 images can be saved to the card.Using the card in a lower resolution digital point and shoot camera, capacity ...

- Fast CF card for my Canon Powershot A70.
I purchased this card @ Dell with rebates for less than tearty backs (errors on purpose). So far, it works flawlessly. It reaches close to 1MB/s read rate when used with USB 1.1 card reader. Dpreview.com tested this card with Firewire CF reader and it read data at rate of over 4MB/s.
Highly recommended as all Kingston products. I am thinking about buying another 256MB from Viking to use as "spare tire" since I shoot at highest resolution and best quality with my A70. I can fit around 170 pictures ... Read More

I've been using this CF card on my Nikon 4300 for a couple of months now.It writes fast compared to my other CF (Canon stock, from another camera).However, start up of the camera takes longer (because of the size), and as more pictures are stored, there is a noticeable degradation in speed in writing.I've also used this on a Dell Axim, and it worked great!No problem in formatting.
