Amazon.com Product Description
Lexar Media's high-speed digital film helps your camera capture images faster, so you spend more time taking pictures and less time waiting on your camera. Lexar's CompactFlash cards are individually speed rated so you know the minimum capability of the card. Lexar uses the same rating system used by the CD-ROM industry, where a data transfer rate of 1x equals 150 kilobytes per second (KBps). The higher the speed rating, the faster your camera will be able to write images to the memory card.

For professional shooters who need immediate confirmation they've captured the shot or who want to identify accurate exposure levels or bracketing range, Lexar's patented 12X speed (1.8 MBps) transfer rate makes the card ideal for fast-paced applications such as photojournalism, sports, and fashion. And Lexar's solid-state design provides reliability in harsh shooting environments, mandated by professionals throughout the world.

The Digital Film Compliance seal assures you that your Lexar Media digital film is 100 percent compatible with your CompactFlash digital camera. It can also be used in all other digital devices that support the CompactFlash format, such as PDAs, video recorders, and MP3 players. All Lexar Media CompactFlash cards meet the CompactFlash Association's specifications and are marked with the CF+ symbol.

Product Description
The Lexar CF25612251 has harnessed the speed and power of USB technology to provide an easy-to-use, low-cost image-transfer solution for the digital photography enthusiast. With 256 MB memory capacity, this CompactFlash memory storage card is capable of storing high-resolution audio and video files. Lexar's USB-enabled CompactFlash digital film and JumpShot-connection kit let you quickly capture high-resolution images and easily transfer them to a PC or Mac through the USB port on your computer. There's no lengthy installation process and no need for a separate card reader. With Lexar Media's JumpShot-connection kit, you can now transfer your CompactFlash images to your computer up to 25 times faster than your camera's serial cable connection.

5 out of 5 stars Speed!   July 16, 2002

Wow! This puppy is FAST! I've used it in two cameras with great results. It's hard to believe what a difference the 12x speed makes. I'm an old 35mm photographer so I get very frustrated with the 'digital delay' - this card has really helped. I also love all the storage space. Now I don't have to feel like I'm sacrificing speed for space. Lexar has built a great reputation for quality and speed, and they've come through once again!


5 out of 5 stars Very fast   August 20, 2003

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.


5 out of 5 stars This is my second Lexar card- great item!   October 3, 2003

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.

I've got 2 of these cards and they have worked without a single problem. The 12x speed is also convenient -- when I am taking pictures with my Canon PowerShot A60 (2 MP), my camera can take a picture every 2 seconds (the reasoning to get a 12x over a 4x card). Downloading has been easy and has gone without a single error. The quality seems very good.

Also, keep an eye on Amazon -- the price changes a lot, so look for the best deal! Amazon is the cheapest place I found to get this card.

I already had a 128 MB CF card form SanDisk, but wanted a 256 MB card, since I was running out of memory on trips and photo shoots. I bought this Lexar Media CF card because of the price. I thought the 12X would translate in to higher I/O performance compared to my SanDisk card. I didn't notice any speed increase though. The card gets the job done, but it's not any thing to get excited over.
