Summary: Great Card, great value!
Review: Going from a SanDisk 128mb card to this 12X I've definatly noticed the speed. With the SanDisk, my Canon 300D would take a good 1.5-2seconds before it would write, I could fill the buffer, but after 4-5 shots I'd have to wait 5-10 seconds for it to write before the buffer was empty again. With the Lexar-12x I can take pictures as quick as I need.

Super card, super value, smart purchase.

Summary: Certainly faster
Review: I bought this 512MB 12x Lexar CF card for a Canon S50 camera and I have seen a definite speed improvement. The method used to measure the speed was the number of times the writing indicator lamp blinks before it is ready to take the next picture. Also I took pictures of the same subject at same settings to maintain fairness. Here's the results of cards I have tried:
Sandisk Ultra 256 MB - 4 blinks
Viking 128 MB - 3 blinks
Lexar 12x 512 MB - 2 blinks

Summary: Not bad.
Review: I have four CF cards, a SimpleTech 256MB, a SanDisk 256MB, a Kingston standard 512MB and this Lexar 512MB 12X. Among them, the Kingston is the fastest. The Lexar 12X is just a bit slower. The SanDisk is much, much slower and the SimpleTech is even slower than the SanDisk. Although this card is not as fast as I had expected, I'm glad to see that it is not so slow.
I use the cards on my Digital Rebel.

Summary: It's a ok card but there are much better once
Review: I own a Canon 10D with a Sandisk ultra 512 and a lexar 512 12x.

The lexar is just slow basicly i would say go for the fast ultra 2.
But the lexar works fine only it takes time.

Summary: Card was unusable after 1 use
Review: I took about 10 shots with my canon digital rebel, uploaded to my laptop and it was fine. Put it back into the camera and it wouldn't read it. Nor did my card reader. Sent it back for a amazon replacement, but they refunded me instead. Maybe its because it's...more expensive now...

Summary: Eat it, Lexar 512 MB 12X SSS CompactFlash Card!!!
Review: Oh my God, the Lexar 512 MB 12X HSS CompactFlash Card (CF512-12-251) is so awesome it makes me want to kill myself! The Lexar 512 MB 12X HSS CompactFlash Card (CF512-12-251) totally rules, and I'm not even kidding! Let me just say this: The Lexar 512 MB 12X HSS CompactFlash Card (CF512-12-251) makes the Lexar 512 MB 12X SSS CompactFlash Card (CF512-12-250) look like it was made out of f-'in legos, people. The technology makes my brain bleed, figuratively! I'm so serious.

I'm going to get a tattoo that illustrates how much I love the Lexar 512 MB 12X HSS CompactFlash Card (CF512-12-251). Jealous?

Summary: Very acceptable Nikon d70 performance
Review: The 12x is the slowest you can use AND be satisfied in 6MP mode. You can get four frames out @3fps before you have to wait for the buffer to write to memory in the RAW+JPEG mode. Otherwise you can shoot @ just under 1fps until the memory is full. In JPEG Fine and JPEG Normal you get 11 and 16 shots off, respectively, before this ram slows you down to just above 1fps. In JPEG Basic mode I quit at 49 shots out @3fps but never filled the buffer. Therefore, if you typically are shooting less than 1 frame per second in 6MP mode this ram will never let you down and it will handle the occasional sporting event.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The only value brand of flash memory I trust
Review: While Panasonic and Fuji also make very reliable flash memory cards, Lexar is the only one that makes reliable AND affordable products. I use Lexar flash memory a lot each and every day, and have never encountered an error. 512MB is perfect for the new 10-megapixel SLR digital cameras. Hmm, actually you'll need this much storage. :)

Also works well in the Toshiba e755 Pocket PC. 512MB = over 15 hours of music encoded in 64-kbps WMA.
