    Comments about Lexar 4GB Platinum II CompactFlash Memory Card:

    I bought 2 cards to add to the 2 lexar 4mb cards I already have. In my photography trips I do not rely on one card to record all of the shots, I like to utilize several card so the the danger of losing is reduced.

        This holds a lot of room so you can take large size images. I haven't run out of space yet after shooting for a couple hours straight. It downloads the images fairly quickly as well.

            Just bought and received my new Canon 7D & bought the Lexar 4GB along with it. I hope it is big enough for the HD video. I won't do alot of video, but will nice feature to have. I only use Lexar cards.

              As a wedding photographer, I need to shoot fast, and this does the trick. It isn't the fastest speed out there for writing images, but it does the job and it does it well for half the price of the others they just brought out at 133x write spped, etc. Lexar never fails.

                Comments about Lexar 4GB Platinum II CompactFlash Memory Card:

                I work for a manufacturer in NJ and we don't have a very high output. But transfer speed and price are our main concerns... while this isn't a blazing fast card it beats what we had before and maxes out our current cameras capabilities. 4GB is so much more than we need on a daily basis, but since Lexar seems not to make 1GB cards anymore, it was the lowest we could go for the cheapest. Lexar cards are so reliable, I have even washed and dried cards accidentally and they are still providing me reliable service 6 years later.

                Do miss having the new image rescue software with this card like with the pro models.

                    They work, and they hold 4 GB.
                    Not really concerned about speed since most modern dSLR camera's have a huge internal buffer to store photo's even if the card is slow. When uploading back to my PC, I find other things to do while the upload is in progress
