1 Star ReviewTranscend 2GB 80X CF card
Strengths: None
Weaknesses: Corrupt data on about 8% pictures of all 6 cards. One card now rejected by new 30D camera.
Summary: 2006-11-18 21:42:13 I purchased three Transcend 2GB 80x Compact Flash cards I returned them once to zipzoomfly.com because they failed to work properly. They sent me 3 new cards and one of those cards is now rejected by my new 30D and the other two are producing at least 8% corrupted images. I have a SanDisk 2GB that has not had any errors or corrupted images.

UPDATE: 13 days later another Transcend card has gone bad. Transcend has not responded nor sent replacement card from bad card sne to them Nov 6th, 2006. That makes 5 out 6 2GB 80x Cards that fail to work at all in a 30D Canon.

Strengths: Flawless performance in my EOS 5D. Quick writing in camera and quick transfers to computer as well.
Weaknesses: None
Summary: This is a great card at a great price. I have used other cards from Lexar, Sandisk and Ridata, and this card matches all the others for dependability and quality.

Strengths: Price per gigabyte, fast transfer rates
Weaknesses: None so far, though when researching these cards, I did read a couple of users that claimed they died on them, though I am sure any company has its share of defective cards.
Summary: I originally bought a kingston card since I read nothing but good things about them, but I got this Transcend card sent instead. Since I got it on ebay and from China, I decided to try it. I actually have the 120x card. I filled the card up twice with my Nikon D200, and I actually get more shots on this card versus a 80X pro Lexar. It seems to write pretty fast too. I got 200 compressed RAW & basic JPG on my D200. The Lexar got about 193. I can't seem to find many reviews about Transcend, and while I have read mostly positive things, I did read a couple of alarming reviews from someone that said they had one of these die, so I am not real sure about the realibility. I am a bit skiddish on unknown brands as I had a Promaster that corrupted images. Time will tell on that one. They only offer a 5 year warrenty versis a lifetime for some of the others like the Lexars, Sandisks, and even the Kingstons. I hope this card holds up because it is really fast. It seems to be as fast or faster as my pro 80x Lexars.

Strengths: Very fast access, low price for capacity and speed.
Weaknesses: none
Summary: Excellent value for a 80x 2gb CF card. A price level like this will encourage me and others to buy 2, 3 or more for this cards. I will be try the 4gb card next.
