 Excellent CF card November 11, 2008
I have been using this card for over a month now it worked flawlessly. I recommend Sandisk because I have been using my Sandisk CF 2GB since Jan. 2005 I used it in my Minolta 7D and then in my Canon 400D and now in my Fostex FR-2LE Digital Sound Recorder it has been working fine ever since I used it without any data loss or malfunction.
Awesome! October 24, 2008
I shoot with a 5d and this card holds around a thousand shots. That's just awesome. I go out, I shoot for the whole day and don't have to change my card...I mean, what else could I want? I love it. Oh and it's about a 3rd the price of similar cards being sold in the mall.
 Not so great October 6, 2008

Nothing to do with the seller, who was very prompt. Card works fine, but I get the impression that it is actually slower, substantially so, than the Ultra II card I replaced. There is a noticeable pause while the camera writes the image to the card. The Ultra II card had a slight delay as well, but nothing long as this one. Of course, I am using an older camera which was not designed to use a high capacity card like this, but I can't believe the delay is because of that. My impressions are based on a week-long session with the card and over 500 snaps. I would seriously consider using a camera that uses an SD card instead, seeing as to how the other camera we use does not have a noticeable delay using the SD Ultra II card by Sandisk.
Great Card for the money September 4, 2008
This is a great card and more than fast enough for its age. I got it when it was about 6 months from release. There was an insane sale and I paid something like $170 for it, when it had been nearly $1,000 on release. Have used it a couple of years with no problems at all in a Canon 5D. Don't format it in the 5D unless your firmware is up to date, however, or it will be treated like an 8gig card until you get something to reformat it and reclaim the "lost" 8 gigs. There's a little hewlett packard formatting program out there on the interwebs that can do this. With neweest firmware, this won't be an issue.
Make sure you get the 2008 version of this card!!! August 7, 2008

SanDisk has pulled a fast one on us who are accustomed to the Extreme III & IV series. They've updated the Extreme III series with a new "2008" spec model. Yeah, so what... Well, the 2008 spec Extreme III 16GB CF card is almost twice as fast as the original "20x" Extreme III 16GB CF card in my Nikon D3. In fact, the 2008 16GB model is just marginally slower than my Extreme IV 8GB card in my D3. This speed increase makes a big difference for me when shooting motorsports in RAW mode and hyperactive children. Even crazier still, as of this review, Amazon is selling the 2008 spec Extreme III 16GB card for ~$15 less than this much slower model.
Do yourself a favor before buying one of these cards and see how it will perform in your camera first... google for "Rob Galbraith CF performance database" and look up your camera. Buy intelligently!
