Summary: Very fast
Review: I bought this for my new Canon ELPH S-400. Since it is my first digital camera, I did not know much about memory card and I was very happy with the camera along with the Canon CF card included in the package. However, the Canon CF card was only 32MB, so I was looking to buy bigger memory. When I first saw 12X, I cared less for this number. After I read other positive reviews, I decided to give it a try. Wow!! It is fast. Now I know what 12X meant. It does take shorter time(I haven't timed how many seconds) from shot to shot and much faster than Canon CF card to erase unwanted shot. I love it and I am going to buy 16X next time.

Summary: Fast, reliable product.
Review: I bought this Lexar 12x compact flash card for my recent oversea trips and i loved it. I did not have to wait for the camera (canon s50) to write the pic. I just kept shooting. I never had any problem uploading/downloading pics/files to my camera/computer. I am waiting/looking for a good deal to get few more.

Summary: Have to return it because it's defective
Review: I bought this memory for my Canon PowerShot S50 camera. After a few times of usage, I got "memory error." I switched back to the card that originally came with the camera and everything is fine. I also used the memory reader to write to it and made sure that it's not my camera. Maybe it's bad luck... or maybe the quality is...

Summary: Great and fast card
Review: I bout the card to transfer files between computers. The card is very fast and works well with my SANDISK 6 in 1 reader.

Summary: A Very Good Memory Card!
Review: I have 4 Canon cameras that use Compact Flash. I decided that I wanted to have a backup card for each camera and I bought 4 of these particular cards for that purpose. CF cards are resonably priced nowadays. This particular card (times 4) has worked very well for me so far and I have not had a single issue regarding it. Based on that I 'have' to give it a 5 star rating.

Summary: This is my second Lexar card- great item!
Review: I have a canon digital camera and was always running out of space on the compact flash cards until I purchased my first Lexar 256 MB card. This card allows me to take hundreds of good quality photos on one card when I'm on a trip or at an event. Yes the speed slows a bit when the card is full, but if you're skiing or out on a hike and don't want to be changing cards this is a great accessory. 256 MB can be an extravagance if you are someplace where downloading or changing cards is not a problem but if you want to just keep on clicking try this card. It is also essential if you want to take videos with your digital camera. Videos use up a ton of memory so the larger capacity is a must. Overall I've been really satisfied with my Lexar card. I've used it agasin and again with no diminished capacity, and I've stored photos on it for a long time with no problems. Downloading has been a pleasure and photo quality is excellent. When you consider how much service it gives you this card is a bargain.

Summary: So good I got a second one!!!!
Review: I have a Minolta Dimage 7i and first got this card becuase the camera came with only a 16Mb card - useless unless you only want to take 8 pictures. The 256Mb card gives me 144 pictures at maximum resolution (2560 x 1950). I travel frequently and don't take a laptop with me so I decided to get a second card so I am not limited on these long trips.

Summary: Speed improvement on my Nikon 775
Review: I have a Nikon 775, and purchased a 64MB Sandisk CF to go with it a while ago. When the price dropped for 256MB CF, I decided to purchase this Lexar 12x CF, to have more room for pictures. It was a surprise to notice that lag time between shots and viewing time have improved. Now I switch between shooting mode and viewing mode more often because of speed improvement; it was a real pain before, it used to take around 10 seconds, now it's around 2-3 seconds.
I am not sure if this will happen with other cameras, but I'm happy with this card in my 775. I wish all memory cards come with the speed rating to make purchase decision easier.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Lexar 12X 256 MB CF Card is great!
Review: I now have eight of these cards, and they have all worked flawlessly! My Nikon Coolpix 880 manual says they aren't tested to work, but Lexar guarantees 100% compatibility. That convinced me to try my first one, and the extra capacity over the 128 MB card is fantastic! I plan to use these more, when I upgrade to a higher megapixel Nikon Coolpix camera.

There's an advantage to having several smaller capacity cards than one big one. If a sole big MB card fails, you have no memory storage, then! This did happen to me on a photo shoot in the Eastern Sierra Nevada, a couple winters ago, with another brand card. Luckily, I've been picking up more memory cards as they went on sales, with rebates and discounts. But with a new 8 MP or more Coolpix, I eventually will get a few more 1 GB, or more, cards.

With my 8 Lexar cards, I can shoot over 2,000 images set mostly at a fine resolution, full-sized, for a 3 MP Coolpix. A seven day road trip filled them up, for me. This does improve the screen viewing image, too, over those at a normal setting.

I am awaiting three rebates currently, and Lexar's rebate notification system is very helpful in making sure they received your rebate forms, receipt copy, and proof-of-purchase.

If you need more memory than comes with any digital camera, I'd strongly recommend this card. With 323 images (set at Full/Normal) to shoot with a 3.34 MP camera, that'll get you through most all a beautiful, shooting day!
