Digital camera reviews of Kingston CF/2GB-S 2 GB ElitePro CompactFlash Card (Retail Package)
Digital camera Review: CF card
Summary: 4 Stars
I have used the card for several photo's and so far I am happy with it. When I use the HI resolution setting it takes longer to process than I had anticpated, but it is fast enough for what I use it for.Digital camera Review: Camera Memory
Summary: 5 Stars
The new card was received intact and in original condition. Now I can take almost 2000 pix without reloading.Digital camera Review: Card died at a crucial moment
Summary: 2 Stars
I paid a lot of $$$ for this card and expected it to be hassle-free during a trip to Ireland. After I had filled about 1.1 GB on the card it suddently refused to work and my camera would no longer recognize the card. I had to use other cards, and my amount of storage was drastically reduced because I lost those 900MB.
However, once I got home the pictures could be retrieved by using a card reader. Somehow about 50 strange folders with jumbled characters had been written to the card, causing the problems (not a camera problem, the card was the problem).
This card was noticeably faster than my other Kingston 1GB "standard" card, however it was slower than the SanDisk Ultra cards that I brought. I was not pleased with the write speed of any of my kingston cards.
Digital camera Review: Card failed on first day of use.
Summary: 1 Stars
This card didn't make it past day one with my new Canon Digital Rebel XT. I shot roughly 50-60 pictures, and then received a CF error on the camera. The images couldn't be read, and no more images could be written to the card. I formatted the card in the camera, shot some more pictures, and again, a CF error. I repeated the process a third time, and decided that this card was not going to be reliable. I was possibily just unlucky and received a defective card, but I have seen other posts where folks have encountered the same issue. I returned the card without hassle and purchased a SanDisk that hasn't given me a single problem.Digital camera Review: Card not compatible with iPAQ 2495B !!!
Summary: 4 Stars
I recently bought this card for my iPAQ! The device doesn't recognize the card at all. The card itself is pretty good and fast and worked fine with all the other devices i tried it with. Eventually I was able to trade the card for a SanDisk 2GB which seems to work without any problems.
So, Kingston 2GB CF card is generally a good choice but if you have an iPAQ, make sure you test if your PocketPC is compatible with this card BEFORE buying it.... ;)
