Excellent SDHC Memory Card
I bought 2 San Disk SDHC Cards: 16GB Class 10 and 16GB Class 6 for my new Nikon D7000 with two SD memory compartments.
I configured the camera as follows:
I bought 2 San Disk SDHC Cards: 16GB Class 10 and 16GB Class 6 for my new Nikon D7000 with two SD memory compartments.
I configured the camera as follows:
- the class 10 card for photo;
- the class 6 for video.
Enough memory space for my day of shooting - a few hundred max resolution and size JPEG or 12-bits lossless RAW stills, and occasional short (a few minutes) video.
Both cards are fast enough, even when shooting in burst mode. San Disk has always been a well a reliable manufacturer of memory cards.
Class 6 (10) - minimum sustainable transfer rate, namely 6MB/s (10MB/s).
20MB/s (30MB/s) - maximum transfer rate.
When it comes to transfer (read/write speed), the relevant limiting factors are not only the parameters of the card, e.g. class 6 with 20MB/s or class 10 with 30MB/s. The buffer ("RAM" volatile memory) of the camera also plays a significant role.
Here is my understanding of how this works for the Nikon D7000, or a similar, or better/faster camera:
- as the manual indicates, the Nikon D7000 can buffer up to 31 Fine, Large Size JPEG (size 7.4MB) stills. Assuming I shoot at 6fps (frames per second), all 7.4 x 6 = 44.4MB will be buffered/processed, and then written to a class 10 card in 44.4/30 = 1.48s. Since it takes 1s to shoot these stills, and buffering+writing start the moment I initiate shooting, the wait time interval between this burst and a potentially new burst or single shot is expected to be less than 1s. (approx 1.48 - 1 = 0.48s). About 16GB/7.6MB = 2015 such stills can be stored on a 16GB card. Nikon suggests less (813 for a 8GB card), probably because not all 8GB (16GB respectively) are available for storage;
- as the manual indicates, the Nikon D7000 can buffer up to 10 NEF (RAW), Lossless compressed 14-bit (size 19.4MB) stills. Assuming I shoot at 6fps, all 19.4 x 6 = 116.4MB will be buffered/processed, and then written to a class 10 card in 116.4/30 = 3.88s. For the same reasons mentioned above, the wait time interval between this burst and a potentially new burst or single shot is expected to be less than 3s. (approx 3.888 - 1 = 2.88s). About 16GB/19.4MB = 824 such stills can be stored on a 16GB card. Nikon suggests less (223 for a 8GB card), probably because not all 8GB (16GB, respectively) are available for storage
I chose a class 6 at 20MB/s for video, because I reasoned that storing of video (even 1080 HD) information is less demanding than storing of stills (much less resolution/size per frame).
The Nikon D7000 can shoot 1080p at 24fps and 720p at 30fps, and can buffer up to 20min of video formated MOV - H.264/MPEG-4 AVC.

I already own two of these and they work flawlessly in my D7000 so I bought two more. The two new ones in my D7000 would both randomly drop off the camera. The problem would follow the new cards from slot to slot, but the older ones worked perfect. The cards would just disappear and be unavailable. Reinsert the card and I was back in business. But who can work that way? Reliability is the most important thing for me. B&H was above awesome with the return - can't say enough about great customer service. I exchanged them for Lexar Prox 133x speed cards. Those card are working great, but are noticeably slower (shooting raw w/ 2nd slot backing up). 3 Stars because I love these cards, 2 stars because I had two in a row that were not not quite right for a D7000.

Comments about SanDisk 16GB Extreme SDHC Memory Card:
Trust worthy and reliable as always. I've been using Sandisk SD cards since I first got into digital photography. I've tried other brand names such as Transcend or Toshiba, and have been burnt with corrupted photos, never again.

Comments about SanDisk 16GB Extreme SDHC Memory Card:
I bought two of these to go in a Nikon D7000. Formatted them first (always do this first, and do it in the camera please) and they're both working great. Plenty of speed to record at the D7000's top video resolution (H264 1920x1080p24) as well as burst shooting in the highest resolution (RAW plus Fine JPEG)
I'm pleased with the capacity and speed and would recommend these to anyone looking for a lot of storage with quick transfers to boot. They currently offer 8 and 32GB versions for those that need more or less space.

Comments about SanDisk 16GB Extreme SDHC Memory Card:
I bought this for a Nikon D5000 camera, and though camera manual said that this kind of card is compatble with camera, frequently the camera gave the error that there is no card in camera, sometimes it helped if you take it out and put it back in but not always. anyway, after chagning with a same card but with 15 mg/s trasfre speed now it works fine.

This memory card it's just awesome.
I use it with my gopro hero 2 and it works really well. 16GB is enough to film your action and the speed is also extreme.
really good product. if you are looking for a memory card for your gopro go with this one, there is no need to buy a 32gb or an extreme pro version.

Comments about SanDisk 16GB Extreme SDHC Memory Card:
I use this memory card to record HD video as well as RAW codec images on my Canon T3i and for the price and size of this card I say it's a great buy, so great I bought two. The memory space is more than satisfactory and owning two of these has been a great choice in terms of backing up footage as well as just being able to record more. All this to say that this memory card was well worth the price.

Comments about SanDisk 16GB Extreme SDHC Memory Card:
Bought it for use with my Canon S100. Works just fine. It's hard to compare speeds because it's very subjective, but as far as I can see it's plenty fast enough for this use. It does not seem to slow the camera down in any way, and copying the photos back to the computer is also a breeze.

I use this with my JVC Everio FullHD camcorder and it works great, it's fast and reliable, and uploads quickly to my computer. I get around 80 minutes of HD recording time and even more on a lower quality setting. Great for all-around photography and video use.

As fast as you could want. The only memory card that doesn't limit the number of exposures per second I can take on my Nikon d90 because its faster than the camera. An as reliable as one would expect from SanDisk.
