Does What It is Supposed to

Works really well. On the site, it said it would be a Class 6, but on the card it said Class 2. I benchmarked it on my cam (through CHDK) and it wrote at 6Mbps :) so can't blame them for that. The reader looks kinda flimsy, but it works so far. Really small too :)

Great for backups and fairly fast

I use 4 GB cards primarily for backups. I've never had a problem, unlike with DVDs. I already had two non-SDHC 4 GB cards and wanted another. However, non-HC cards are becoming increasingly hard to find at a good price. So I decided to give this card+reader a try since it was so affordable. It works very well, with a read/write speed of about 4 MBytes/Sec on my Dell XPS computer. That's not as good as the 7.5 MB speed I get with the 13-in-1 media card reader on the computer, but that reader does not support SDHC cards. So, although the speed is less with this reader, I should now be able to use 8 GB or even 16 GB HC cards. I may even start using it as a media drive in addition to backups.

BTW, this reader is very easy to use. Just plug it into any available USB port and wait for Windows to initialize it. It is drive I:\ on my computer, but I'm sure that varies by computer and OS.

I have several different kinds of these.

I've found some brands to be unreliable, especially when you use a converter to a mini SD card. This one works solidly everytime. I'll probably need to get another one because my daughter has decided that this one needs to belong in her room with her laptop. Even though I've got a few to choose from, I'll probably be happier when I get another one like this.

AN UNBEATABLE DEAL OF UNBEATABLE QUALITY: BOTH HIGH CAPACITY SD CARD AND READER

I received this package nearly as quickly as the order was placed. I know such things do not belong in a product review, nor do references to pricing, but these things are so very extraordinary as to deserve recognition.

In any case, I will use this HC SD card in my Nikon D40, and be able to take hundreds of their RAW format (uncompressed) shots before needing another. I do come from the old time "shoot a (film) roll keep a shot" school of photojournalism, way back when such was economically feasible, and so I tend to snap as much and as many shots as possible, even of still lives, in order to discover at home the one shot that works. The D40 is great for this, including as I still struggle to conquer its auto-focus and auto-aperture (and thus depth of field) features, and so I am very grateful for as much room in memory as possible.

I imagine this 4 gigabyte card is also useful for video cameras that can use such a thing, as recording time may become longer. I have never used such a thing so I do not know. I only know that my D40 DSLR still camera loves to eat this ample memory card, and we are all happy. I read where the HC SD will soon come in even greater sizes.

Having lost the proprietary USB cable which connects the camera to the computer, I am really grateful for the included Blue Photon reader. Please note the reader is a little wide, as wide as the card plus half, and so you need to have a USB port on your computer with room on either side. This eliminates some of those front ports on some old Dells, and eliminates ports crowded with other peripheral cables. Move the mouse and keyboard cables elsewhere (do you need to get Microsoft's permission for this?) and squeeze in this reader.

I have already used this reader on the road. I can take photos out in Mexico or wherever, find a public internet source, sit down, swap the sd card out of the camera and into the reader, and file a story on the spot. These photos have already been published and came out just fine. I took them in the highest quality JPG format the D40 offers, and transfered them to the publisher without any further processing, and they came out incredibly well, if I do say do. Hey, the proof is they got published!

So there is no loss of quality in the reader itself, which is fast enough to effectively transfer a three or four megabyte photo file in no time. The reader is small and durable and slips into any pocket easily, even an inner hatband. Both ends have covers to protect the insides well. Don't leave home without it; there is no excuse not to take it along, and plenty of reason to bring it.

This deal cannot be beat. A great SD car and a fantastic reader. Can life get any better than this!
