The 8GB Professional 133x SDHC Card from Lexar is designed for the person who demands the highest quality from a memory card. Whether for shooting digital stills at a public relations gig where you need a high burst rate or filming that child's birthday party in HD video, this card combines high-capacity with blazing performance. You'll be able to speed your workflow along by minimizing the down time between shooting and transferring images from camera to computer. This means that you won't have to frequently change your memory card in order to get the shots you need.

In addition, a high-speed card can make the difference in your post-production time. A faster card means less time sitting in front of a computer waiting while significantly providing more time for editing, self-promotional projects or just getting back in the field to shoot. And these benefits are not limited to the working pro. A faster, more reliable card means enhanced peace of mind when shooting - whether for profit or a yearly family vacation. You'll know your images will be safe, secure and well-protected. 

To that end, this card comes with Lexar's downloadable Image Rescue 4 software that allows you to recover most photos and video files - even if they've been accidentally erased or the card has become corrupted. The card is complete with a write protect switch to guard against accidentally erasing valuable data. Lexar backs up this card with a respectable lifetime warranty.

Note! SDHC Memory Cards will only work in SDHC compatible products and are not backwards compatible

I have read that others have had some issues with these cards but I haven't had any problems. I have used it for about 3 weeks with a Nikon D90. I have captured about 1,000 images, mostly Raw and even a couple 2-3 minute video clips for fun. I use a Lexar dual card reader for loading on to my computer. Once I have my images saved to the computer, I put the card back in to the camera then reformat the card. I believe that the key to long card life is in the reformatting and not just erasing the images.

Unfortunately I was very excited for my purchase but at the end it was just a big disappointment, unfortunately the first day that I use it I lost all my photos, because it start getting corrupt in my camera and was unable to read it in my computer, I was very sad when the only choice that I've got left was to format my card and then lost all the photos that were so hard to take and that I couldn't manage to recover even with the specifics software.

                          I purchased two Lexar 8GB Professional 133x SDHC cards for use in my Canon G12 and Canon S3IS cameras. On two separate international trips, each using a different camera and a different SDHC card, most of my photos were irreparably corrupted. Seems like more than a coincidence, particularly since I've never had a problem with any other SD or CF cards. To paraphrase a famous philosopher, "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, you can't get fooled again...."

                                  it works really good for storing HD video.
                                  Alot of pictures in the highest resolution and compression settings.

                                                I love this card. Class 10 SDHC at a budget price point. It was like buying a whole new camera. These really are not a commodity item.
