Advantages: Fast
Disadvantages: Only 512MB (?)

...I bought this (in Staples in the US) to work with my JVC GZ-MC200 camcorder - check my other reviews to see if I've got round to reviewing that too - and although there's not much to say about a memory card, I thought I'd have a go... Of course, there's no real "installation" to worry about, just take it out of the packet (opening the packaging was probably the hardest part !) and slot it in ! With the camcorder (it also takes stills) set on 1600 x 1200 pixel images and "Fine" qualitty, it tells me that I can take 572 pictures (966 on "Standard" setting") with an empty card, so I'm pretty confident that I'll never run out of space for photos !

Advantages: Fast write speed, Reliable (estimated to last over 100 years)
Disadvantages: none

If you have a different operating system to Microsoft or Apple, then there is no need to worry as it will function on virtually all OS (Operating systems) released shortly before and after the release of Compact Flash Cards. The X-speed on this Compact flash card as well as on all Kingston flash cards determines the writing speed of the card. The writing speed is simply the time taken for a file or files to be copied onto the memory card. The write speed determines the overall performance of the compact flash card. So the higher the write or X-speed the better the performance of the memory card. The X-speed for the Kingston HI Speed Elite PRO Compact Flash 4096 MB card is 133x. One x-speed is equivalent to 150 kb's of data transfer... Read review
