Amazon.com Product Description
Kingston Technology's Secure Digital High-Capacity (SDHC) memory card is designed to meet the storage demands of high-quality digital still and video cameras and other high-resolution image recording devices.

With an 8 GB capacity, the SDHC card offers larger-volume data storage and optimized recording performance with support for FAT 32 file formats. With a Class 6 rating, the card delivers a minimum data transfer rate of 6 MB per second for optimum performance with SDHC devices.

For added reliability and durability, this solid-state SDHC memory card is built of nonvolatile memory components and has no moving parts that could wear out or break. Although identical in size to today's standard SD card, the new SDHC cards are designed differently and are only recognized by SDHC host devices. To ensure compatibility, look for the SDHC logo on cards and host devices such as cameras and camcorders. Fully compliant with the new Secure Digital Association 2.00 specification, this memory card is backed with a lifetime limited warranty.

Customer Reviews

Not working with Apple iPhoto
I brought this 4Gb memory card for use with my Canon A710 IS digital camera. Before this I had a 1Gb Kingston card and had no problems transferring the contents to iPhoto (latest version) on my MacBook Pro. The new memory card is not recognized by iPhoto. I've updated the Canon ImageBrowser software to see if it would recognize this card with no results so far. I've attempted the transfer using USB from my camera and using a USB card reader. As of this review I'm still pursuing a solution to this impasse. I've rated this product with a tentative 2 stars since there may be a simple solution out there that I've missed.

bought more, good and cheap
exactly as above, price seems to have gone up. right after i purchased 2 more. hmmm... supply/demand? absolutly no problems though, and best price you can get.

Very pleased
My camera is a Canon Powershot A650 IS, and is compatible with this Kingston 4GB SDHC Class 6 Flash Card (SD6/4GB) card.

I've never gotten a memory card this big before, or needed one this big, but since my camera can take it, I decided to go with the 4GB. I read some reviews on the different types of flash drives and made sure that this one was compatible with my camera, and it was. I also looked up how to judge "class" numbers (like this one is a class 6) to see what the difference was. Basically (if your device can take it) the higher the class, the faster it is :D

I'm very pleased with my purchase. The picture capturing and loading is very quick, so much quicker than my previous SD cards, which is convenient for me, because I'm the family photographer, and with children - you know how that goes... if you miss the moment waiting for the camera to finish loading, then you miss it completely. I also take pictures of things in nature, and use this same camera when going to concerts, so processing speed is very important to me. Erasing processing time is also very speedy, which I like.

I hope that was helpful! ^^
