Strengths: Very Fast, inexpensive for a fast card
Weaknesses: NA
Summary: This card is very fast and the speed will definitely be noticeable in almost all applications including in-camera use and external usb reader. Compact flash cards have an onboard controller, so the camera doesn't play as much of a role in how fast images are transfered to it or how big a card can be. This is unlike most other memory card formats such as (SD, SmartMedia, xdPictureCard, etc) where the conroller is on the camera itself and may not utilize the extra speed a faster memory card provides.

Strengths: Very Fast in my Canon Digitel Rebel
Weaknesses: NA
Summary: I have both the Canon Digitel Rebel camera and the SanDisk 512 MB Ultra II. I am completely pleased with the results I have received in using this camer and the SanDisk UltraII.

The only improvement I would make would be to add another card just like it or one with more memory.

Strengths: Very fast
Weaknesses: none known
Summary: I don't own this product yet. Though I plan to buy one very soon. I think the previous reviewer's comments are very unfair. The limiting factor to the speed of saving images in his camera is the camera itself. A cheap one-magapixel camera can't be expected to benefit from an ultra-fast flash card such as this. In fact, the $1500 6.3 Megapixel Canon EOS 10D that I am going to buy isn't even going to take full advantage of this card's speed. Then why am I buying this card? Flash card readers that attach directly to your computer through a USB 2.0 or FireWire connection will read the card at its fastest speed. Also, if I ever upgrade to an even faster camera, the card will still be good.

2 Star ReviewI have a megapixel camera and thought this one wou ...
Strengths: Cute looking hologram... may be girls will like that!
Weaknesses: It's just like any other compact flash. Don't fall for the "ULTRA II"
Summary: I have a megapixel camera and thought this one would be faster than the other CF(s) I have. WRONG!!! Hardly any difference. I would rather go with the Viking CF... they are worth the money. You will probably find it 50% cheaper.
