Product Description

Starting at 4 GB, SDHC cards offer larger-volume data storage and optimized recording performance with support for FAT 32 file formats. In addition, Kingston's SDHC cards use new speed "class" ratings known as Class 2, 4 and 6 that deliver a minimum data transfer rate for optimum performance with SDHC devices. Although identical in size to todays standard SD card, the new SDHC cards are designed differently and are only recognized by SDHC host devices. To ensure compatibility, look for the SDHC logo on cards and host devices (cameras, camcorders, etc.). For added reliability and durability, our solid-state SDHC memory cards are built of nonvolatile memory components and have no moving parts that could wear out or break. All cards are 100-percent tested and are backed by a lifetime warranty¿ and 24/7 live technical support.

Customer Reviews

Nice for the price
Pros: High capacity, works well, good price, seems to be fast. No complaints.

Cons: Be aware that not all SD card readers understand the HC cards (and you need to be sure your camera etc. is compatible as well). Microsoft support is spotty, driver updates are coming - someday. If you want something faster than connecting your camera to the PC, get a reader that specifically supports the HC format.

great card.. I think, but it won't work with older camers
I'm sure this memory card is great: But note, it didn't work with my Cannon PowerShot SD450 - this maybe due to the card, but I think that older cameras don't support the "HC" card technology. The packaging and fine details don't really tell you how to determine this though...

The price IS too good to be true; mine was a lemon
I bought this with my Canon a570. The camera is fantastic, but the card is another story. It worked fine at first, but a month later, I went to India and now half of my pictures are missing, replaced with a question mark and a message that says 'unidentified image'. Now the card doesn't hold anything, I get a message that says 'memory card error'. I'm going to spend a little more for a more reliable brand this time.
