Digital camera reviews of SanDisk SDSDB-256-A10 256 MB Secure Digital Card (Retail Package)Digital camera Review: Scandisk SD 256mb Card Summary: 5 StarsWhats to say, "It's a memory card" it works in my Canon SD300.
Digital camera Review: Card corrupted with 200 photos on it Summary: 3 StarsMy memory card corrupted after working wonderfully for a few weeks. My research into the cause provided me with the opportunity to buy recovery software but not much more in the way of help. My camera's manufacturer's website also gave insight into the problem, which leads me to believe that this is not an unusual occurance. Very frustrating!! Apparently it was caused by the way I handled my camera, unbenonst to me. My family has, however, used this same brand of disk without any problems. I have been using it in a 4MP Kodak camera.
Digital camera Review: Not all digital devices work with all SD cards Summary: 4 StarsThere are a number of people leaving reviews here that bash SanDisk, and I'm sure that their experience justifies their opinions. But let me relate my own experience.
I bought a couple of motion-activated trail cameras and bought several Kingston 256MB SD cards for them. I decided on Kingston based on so many favorable reviews of their SD cards on Amazon. But the cameras were not compatible at all with the Kingston cards. The cameras wouldn't power up in the manner that the user manual said they would, I couldn't access the menu screen, none of the set-up buttons worked, and the LCD screens showed things never discussed in the user manual. Things were just generally screwed up, and I wondered if I had received a defective unit.
I called the camera manufacturer and they said that they also had experienced trouble with certain "offbrand" makes of SD cards, but that they hadn't had any trouble with SanDisk. I had never heard that Kingston was considered an offbrand, but I decided to experiment using another manufacturer's SD card. I inserted a SanDisk SD card, and the camera worked beautifully. Perhaps SanDisk adheres more closely to guidelines for cross-compatibility between digital devices, but that was a lesson for me.
Contrary to the experiences of some, I have never had problems with a SanDisk memory card - CF or SD - whereas this is the second time I've had problems with a Kingston memory card - one time it was a 512MB CF card that suddenly went belly-up after not much use, and now their 256MB SD card was having compatibity issues. I'm sticking with Sandisk or Lexar.
Digital camera Review: Fine by Me Summary: 5 StarsIt works fine in my Canon SD300 digital camera. Not much else to say.
Digital camera Review: Don't Buy --- May Go Bad Summary: 1 StarsMy parents purchased a 256MB SanDisk SD Card for Christmas as a gift for me at a retail store (not Amazon). It worked really well in my Palm Zire 31 for a while, until the card went currupt. My dad went to SanDisk's website and found in the FAQ's that the 256MB SD Cards have a history of going bad. I wouldn't take the risk if I were you, because you may loose your pictures, music, documents or whatever else you would store on an SD Card. Go for a different brand if you want a 256MB Card.
