Digital camera reviews of SanDisk Retail Pack SDSDB-512-A10, UPC Code 619659018115
Digital camera Review: Big Storage. Slow Speed.
Summary: 4 Stars
If you're buying a 512 MB card, then most likely you need/use a lot of data storage. If you fill this card up then try to download to your computer, it will take several minutes to transfer. You should really consider getting a high-speed card so that you can cut on transfer time. Many cameras also take advantage of the faster speed on the high-speed cards; this can be especially helpful if when you take many pictures in succession.Digital camera Review: Card Works Great....Most of the Time!
Summary: 4 Stars
SanDisk makes really great SD cards, however, these 512mb's have given me the most trouble out of all of them. Most of the time, transfer is quick and easy for any file. I can put a file on the card and take it off at anytime. However, every once and a while, especially on cameras, the file almost seems to become corrupt. This problem actually happens on the card, for I have conducted numerous tests, all showing that the card messes up the file. It really only happens once in a blue moon, but when it does, it's quite a hinderance. Regaurdless of the fact, SanDisk really makes the most reliable products and at a good price, so if you are looking for a nice sized SD card, this is probably the way to go!Digital camera Review: Commendable customer support
Summary: 5 Stars
As the title suggest, this is not as much about the card. For what I used it (GPS receiver) when a card (any card) works, it works. So this review is about what happens when the card stops working like mine. It died most likely not because there was something at fault with the card but because of a power surge on my ancient Win98 machine I have connected to.
Just in case, I sent an email to Sandisk customer support. Just in case, cause I wasn't very hopeful. I knew it couldn't be repaired and I didn't even remember when and where I purchased it from. I got a prompt reply asking me to do couple of simple operations just to verify that the card is indeed dead. I did this and got another reply giving me RMA and instructions how to ship the dead card back to them at their cost. Within two weeks I got a new card back.
I am really very impressed. All my past experience in dealing with various customer support companies left me with quite negative feelings. I think one should reward companies that treat customers in fair and respectable manner. So from now on, if anything I shop for, is made by Sandisk I will get the Sandisk brand rather than any other brand.
Digital camera Review: Dead Out of the Package
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased this primarily because of the comparatively low price. I have another Sandisk (128mb) that works well. This one was recognized by Windows the first time I used it but the first files written on it were corrupted and couldn't be erased. I tried to read it on another XP computer but I received an error message "the file is corrupted and unreadable." Sandisk tech support (only 10 sec wait!) agreed it was a bad card. I would buy another brand.Digital camera Review: Delivery is fast and the item is good.
