i apologize for the one star rating, i have this card and it works fine in my camera, so i ordered another one for my zen through amazon from thememstore and the day for delivary came and went, i didnt mind the original 3 week wait for the card. finally i sent thememstore an amazonmail, then i get a letter from amazon saying my order was canceled without telling me why.
the reason i am here writing this is that since i didnt get the item i cant post the negative comment in the store area and now the price has gone up since my original purchase. dump thememstore

Bought one of these for my new Canon VIXIA HF100 AVCHD camcorder.. works like a charm with that unit. Just wish I could buy another one right now, as they're completely out of stock. Love having the USB reader as well, very handy!

I've used this with my Canon HF-100 for about a month so far. No problems at all.

Yes,
This producted worked well for the first two months. Then, today, I tried to upload my Kentucky derby photos and videos and I got the infamous "I/O reading error". Basically means, the card is broken.
I tried EVERY means to reformat the drive. From PC reformat to manual CMD reformat, nothing worked!!
Thank goodness there are great memory card recovery programs, or else my precious Derby moments would have been lost, but WATCH OUT, don't get stuck in the safe mode of thinking. This error may come back and bite you .
Spend the extra money and get a good brand.
Transcending SanDisk June 14, 2008

I use SanDisk Extreme III (Lumix FZ50) in my professional work, and Ultra II (Lumix TZ5) in my snapshots and most vacations. At the time, the 8 Gb was excellent, and could hold more pix than I would ordinarily take. Wanted to try a 16 Gb, and couldn't find an Extreme, though it was listed, so when I saw the Transcend, thought I'd try it. A friend had the 4 and 8 Gb, and liked them. So I bought, and so far, though it doesn't officially have the weather capabilities of the Extreme, I can't tell the difference in speed of r/w, and find no difference in pic quality. For significantly less money, for non-wilderness/severe weather use, the Transcend appears to be every bit as fast and as good as the SanDisk. The card reader it came with is not quite as nice as the SanDisk's, but so far (3 months of use) works just as well. The 16 has more capacity than I've been able to fill so far, but that just means I don't have to switch cards midstream, and can take marginal pix in addition to primaries, and edit what doesn't come out well. I will consider Transcend along with SanDisk in the future, and unless there is a clear technical advantage, will go with Transcend's lower price.
