The 133x read & write speed is designed to speed up image capture times by taking advantage of a Digital SLR camera's high-speed processor.

For the professional shooter who needs immediate confirmation that they've captured "the Shot" or wants to identify accurate exposure, levels or bracketing range, Lexar's patented speed 133X (20 MB/sec.) is critical. Ideal for fast-paced applications such as photojournalism, sports and fashion, Lexar's high-speed series and professional digital film brings out the ultimate performance from your professional equipment.

    Fast Card, Great For Raw

        Comments about Lexar 8GB Professional 133x CompactFlash Card:

        A really great card, fast enough to handle my Nikon D300 shooting bursts in RAW format. This is my second Lexar 8GB 133x file, which I bought because on a full day of shooting a single 8GB card just isn't quite enough. Comes with Image Rescue file recovery software, which is AMAZING for restoring photos that are accidentally erased. I've had no problems at all with this card, and I would highly recommend this over smaller, slower cards!

          Unless you are shooting lots of pictures at a time or shooting in RAW, this large a card might be overkill.

            Comments about Lexar 8GB Professional 133x CompactFlash Card:

            I have order many times from BH and have never had an issue. They have always had my order in, on time, and delivered as expected. The only issue I have ever had is when they are closed for holidays. I am kind of a I need this and I need this immediately kind of a person. But they always have the best prices, the best equipment. I use canon cameras, and if I am trying to find a better deal, I always first start off with BH to get a good price. Most times I end up coming back to them. Unless someone else just happens to have a super sale or rebate. BH typically has the best price. The last item that I purchased was a compact flash card that was on sale at BH for [$]off then came with a rebate of 35 dollars. So I saved a lot of money. I would recommend them to anyone, and they are always the first name that comes to mind when anyone ask about photo equipment.

                We ordered 2 of these cards when they were on sale. Used them the same weekend for an 11 hour wedding. Took 500 RAW images like nothing. Didn't have to wait for card to recharge when taking multiple images. When we unloaded the card, it was almost as fast as some of my 4GB cards using the Lexar firewire 800 reader.
