Viking 512 MB Secure Digital Flash Card (SD512M)

Average rating: Stars

Fast, robust, excellent

This digital flash card has very fast access speeds when used with my new Canon S2 IS digital camera, is amazingly robust considering the bumps and knocks it's recieved when swapping it between my camera and Belkin card reader, and really is excellent value for money.

Too slow for video

The Viking 512 MB card performs flawlessly when taking pictues. However, when taking video, such as on my Canon S2 IS at the highest resolution, this memory card is way too slow. After no more than about 10 seconds, the video will stop so it can finish writing what was captured. With many of the new digital cameras that now provide higher quality video, a faster memory card (a Canon rep recommended a minimum of 40x) is a must.

Not fast enough for Video shooting

I never thought I could have this problem but when I shoot movies with my Canon SD400 under high settings (30 fps, 640*320) it often shows a red exclamation mark beside the minutes and stopped working quickly after. Now I know why-- it's the SD card that's not fast enough. If I change to a lower setting that never happens again. But why do you want to sacrifice your video quality? Get a better one instead!
