If you have a high speed DSLR then you need this card to make the most of it.

Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I use this SDHC card in my DSLR and after 100's of pics, it has never failed to keep up. I did have to upgrade one of my card readers on my PC to accept the HC card.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I use this card in a Nikon D90. I was thinking of purchasing the new Sandisk 30mb/sec SDHC card but after taking the price difference into consideration as well as the other reviews which addressed the speed differences between the two cards, especially in real-life application, I decided on the 20mb/sec card. [...]
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
The card does exactly what it's supposed to. I use it in my digital SLR. The extra capacity and speed is great.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I bought two of this card to use with my D90 and have been very happy with the performance. I initially thought about getting the 30MB/S version but my style of photography (causal, scenery, people) doesn't need that kind of performance - yet.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
It's a fast card. I used it with my Nikon D5000 and it's able to keep up with multi shot. Great value.

Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
This is a great SD card for fast, reliable, accurate photos. I use it with my Nikon D90 and it has exceeded my expectations. There are cheaper cards but do yourself a favor and spend the extra money for a quality card and avoid frustration and disppointment
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
This card is awesome. It's fast and reliable. A must for sports shooting!
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Perfect fit for my new Blu Ray player, the Panasonic DMP-BD60 w/BD Live. Works great for this player that doesn't come with any storage capacity. Allows BD Live to come alive! Could have used an 16Gb SDHC card, but for the money with the[$]rebate I couldn't turn it down. Total price was [$] which I thought was a very good price for a SanDisk SDHC 8Gb card and it is super fast to me. Highly recommend product and Abe's of Maine was great. Get Extreme Three for the speed, you will not be sorry.

Canon Vixia HF S100 HD camcorder.
Pros: - Great recording rate

Cons: - price
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Considered the 30 Mb/s version but discovered that my Xsi couldn't write that fast anyways. Already had 2 smaller capacity cards of this type and decided to upgrade to more capacity. These cards were recommended to me by a professional photographer and I have had zero problems with them.

Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I've been using SanDisk Extreme memory cards for quite a while, and the 8GB SDHC Extreme III is an excellent value for the price--especially when SanDisk runs its seasonal rebates. The cards read and write quickly, and I've never had files become corrupted on them.
Sandisk Extreme III cards are packaged with Image Rescue Pro data recovery software, which can be a real lifesaver if you ever have a corrupted file, or accidentally erase an image. I was able to recover around 80% of my images after I accidentally FORMATTED (d'oh!) a memory card after a vacation.
It's best to take advantage of the rebate offer, which increases with each card purchase--then go shoot away!

Fast transfers, large capacity and reliable
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
These cards are great for Flash based HD Camcorders. 8GB of space gets you one hour of recording on the Vixia HF100. I have got these during the sandisk rebate promotion and are the most cost effective with the rebate.
I also use one of the cards on my Dell Mini where the SSD disk space is limited.

Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I shoot a 12 MP camera in RAW and JPEG simultaneously. With the large files that creates I found myself last Christmas out of town running out of memory. The 8 GB will hold 370 images, more than I'll normally use till next Christmas when I'm out of town. But I've recorded close to 200 images on some shoots and the card writes to my computer very quickly. In burst mode my camera's buffer fills with no speed lost writing from the buffer to the card. I'd recommend it to anyone.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I mainly use this card in a number of digital cameras that I own. It's been a GREAT card and I have had no problems what so ever in using it in any of my SDHC compatible devices. Although, this was my first time ordering from Abe's of Maine. [...]

High quality card at very good price when use the rebates offered by SanDisk. Highly recommended.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Have not run a speed contest with other memory, but downloads have been swift and reliable. Nice to have large capacity for HD video on my camera. Just gotta get a multi-card reader that reads these HC chips.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Reputable memory at a great price and its Class 6. Runs great in my nikon d40x.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Fast and reliable. quality Sandisk product. Large capacity. Great price at Abes on the Sandisk Spring rebate special.
With a handful of these 8GB fast Extreme III cards, you can be shooting for hours with thousands of pictures. They are way faster than cheaper similar class Kingstons, etc. that will be slow to write as well as read. Go with a quality brand like Sandisk.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Easy to use. Mostly used for hard drive with a HD video camorder. Take on trips and store pictures on drive
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Never had problems with SanDisk memory cards, they're reliable. The rebate makes the deal even sweeter. I wish the cards came with SDHC reader, majority of older SD readers don't support SDHC. Hence 4 out of 5 stars.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Using with a Nikon D40. No noticeable speed difference between it and a SanDisk Extreme III 2GB SD card.

Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Great product !!
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
This item is good. From product itself and its price. I got it with a BIG rebate, and end up it will be a good deal.
I use it on my Cannon SD850. Now it will gives me more than 2000 shots under the highest resolution. Compare with the 4GB version I used before, I got same read/write performance.
Cons: This time it offers a free software instead of the free reader. I do like the reader and the little carrying case SanDisk offers for the 4GB version I got last time. (for this, I will deduct one star) Other than that, nothing to complain about.
Good product and a good name to trust.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Great product and awesome price from Abe's
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
i got this for my girlfriend's camera, because the sd card that comes with it is a joke. [...] i ordered 3 myself. now im just trying to find a usb read/writer so i can use the other sd cards as a flash drive.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I could not find a better deal than this one
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
It is very useful for Canon SD750 powershot. We used to use 4GB same card and now with 8GB its more fun. We can get continuously 120 min of video with good quality. 15fps. I think 7mega pixel pics would come about 4000!! Very satisfied and recommend to anybody as long as its compatible. It is not compatible with some old electronics stuff..it should be kept in mind tho.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
This card is extremely fast in my Canon SLR as well as my little Canon Point and Shoot. When using the point and shoot camera in video mode (640 x 480 @ 30 FPS) after taking a 4 minute video and hitting the stop button, the camera saved the video MUCH faster than my previous SDHC card.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
the R/W speed is fast enough on most digital cameras
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Fast card, very quick to write when using burst capabilities on my Canon Rebel XSi. Highly recommended to anyone needing big storage with high speed. I can fit 400+ full-resolution RAW photos on each of these cards. In full-resolution JPEG mode, I could fit 1200+ on each card, which is more than sufficient for all but the longest vacations.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
The product is very good and high capacity
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Very nice products. This is the primary memory card I used for my Nikon D80. It can keep up with continuous shooting very well, and can hold more than one thousand 10M-pixel pictures in fine JPEG format. Even for those who use raw format, hundreds pictures in one single card is not a problem.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
using it in a canon EOS XSI, does the job so far. had it for two weeks or so.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:

Needed to buy special SDHC card reader.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I used 2gb normal SD card before. Now I'm using 8gb extreme SDHC card. I don't find a big difference in copying files from camera to PC, but there is some difference while taking a snap. It stores it fastly. Can get blur-free images, coz of fast storage although the hand shakes. Its basically depends on the camera how the memory card is utilized. Can be bought if comes for a cheap price.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:

Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:

I bought these SDHC cards for my canon SD900 camera. It works great. Fast and no problem at all.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I have used SanDisk Extreme III since the 512Mb CF card, it never fails me like others (even Lexar's professional CF cards could have bad sectors couldn't recover). I have used the 4G SDHC Extreme III, and it's already good to shoot video clips with HD together with images files by the Lumix LX-3. Now, I bought 3 x 8G SDHC, I think it's good enough even for a light job of a full day. 30MB or Extreme IV seems not an issue in the performance of compact DC camera usage.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
These little things rock! I got them with the rebate but am so glad I purchased them. They work great in my camera. A few of my friends now use these and they love their performace too. Go SanDisk!!

They sent them to me after 10 days. Thank you, Abe.

Well worth the money!
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
This card goes great with my Rebel XSi. For fast return to capture, the Extreme III cards rock. Sandisk also makes a faster Extreme III card (30MB/s), but the price of this card couldn't be beat.

Great product from one of the best flash memory makers out there (Sandisk, the other being Lexar/Crucial).
It's very fast (not as fast as my other SanDisk compactflash cards) but these have a slightly different application.
SD cards just don't get any faster than this right now!

Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
This is a very good addition to my 8 mega pixel camera. Now I dont have to frequently remove the old photos from the camera and that definitely helps when u r on a vacation. The speed is excellent, no lag to write after a picture is taken to go to the next picture. Very good speed for my point and shoot digitial camera. Transfer to the computer was also very fast. Sandisk is known for their quality.

takes photo repeatedly with no delay or problems. Transferring photos to computers are a breeze with 20mb/s transfer speed. I love the class 6!
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I’m gonna split this review into 2 categories: What you need and what you really need.
First if you shoot with a camera that is capable of 3 fps (frames per second) or less it really doesn’t matter which card you chose because the camera’s buffer is the biggest limiting factor. Will you see the difference with a faster card? YES, but not by much.
If you shoot with a camera that does 5 fps or more, in my case 10 fps, you want a super fast card, the SanDisk Extreme III is the only card that lives up the speed. I tried several bargain cards with Class 6 rating and they were all slower than the Extreme III. In a 60 minute shoot I can get as much as 100-150 more shots with SanDisk. Granted it’s not just holding down the shutter release for 60 minutes but I got more shots because the card wrote faster and I can get going with shooting rather wait a few seconds for the card to write. It isn’t scientific but 1 of the 100-150 could be the keeper.
Again unless you have a fast camera it doesn’t matter which card you buy but otherwise it’s SanDisk or nothing else.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Forget about the price, if you think speed and reliability are more important. Nothing worse than losing files from your favorite vacation or a friend's wedding over some cheaper media.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
First time I've purchased anything beyond the basic SD card, and it does seem to be faster.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
It's a good card and has massive capacity. I like to use it as extra storage space for my netbook. I got 3 of them for very cheap ([$] total) after rebate, so it was a sweet deal. I wouldn't pay full price for it though, but that's just because I don't need an 8gb card that much. In a download, the speed was more like 10mb/s, not the advertised 20mb/s. Probably depends on what kind of files you're transferring though.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Works great!
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
This card is very fast. The days of choosing between a low capacity/fast card and a high capacity/slow card are over. This card does it all.

Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I use this product in my camera and I am also planning on using it in my Asus eee, it is very fast if I do not have the flash turned I can snap pictures at speeds that seem like a picture per second or faster. The card is very reliable. I have been using it for almost 2 weeks now and it works awesome, no problems so far.

I use these for my camera and as extra storage for my netbook
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I most recently used the 8GB at a wedding. It was great that I didn't have to worry about changing cards.
Only problems so far, is that the card is too large (gigs) for my computer. Instead of being able to download from the card. I had to go through my camera. Which wastes batteries. I guess it's time to update my computer! :-)
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Got this with the sandisk rebate. for the price after the rebate, you can't beat the size/performance with anything else!
there are faster out there, but the extra speed wouldnt make any difference to me in my normal use. couldnt ask for a better deal on this.

With the SanDisk rebate, I bought 3 8gb cards for a fraction of the price of one sold elsewhere. Just make sure that your camera can handle the high capacity SDHC cards. Some of the older cameras can't.

Excellent product with name recognition, it doesnt get much better than this. I photograph Pro Wrestling Shows, and I have no complaints about the fruits of my labor when i use Sandisk products. This one is fast, consistent, and reliable.

I use it in a pns camera, and noticed that I can take videos without any glitches as with my older and slower card.
I also tried it as a readyboost card (4GB), using the other half to store files and it does improve responsiveness under heavy load.

Price is overwhelming but the rebate gives me a shot
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I have used Sandisk memory products every since I bought my first DSLR 2yrs ago. With each and every photo I take, I can rest assure that my photos will be there when I go to download them to my pc. Which I can't say that for some of the cheap brands that I have tried in the past. Do yourself a favor and just buy the best and forget about the headaches. Buy the Sandisk.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
This extreme III version of Sandisk SD card is a lot faster than the standard SD card. At 20mb/s, all my pics from one event/session are transferred over in 15-20 seconds as opposed to waiting for a minute or so with the standard card. I really love it. I am just waiting for Sandisk to come out with a waterproof version:)

You don't have to wait for this card to process information to the card. You can hold down the exposure button on your camera and get superior quality pictures as fast as your camera's shudder speed.

Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
My D80 slowed down after I upgraded from a 2G SD to a name brand class-6 SDHC card. I decided to try the Sandisk Extreme III during a sale and wow, I got all my speed back. I've learnt that all Class-6 SDHC are not created equal. Sandisk is the top of the heap. No more delays due to slow writes.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:

Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I was looking for higher capacity SD card that wouldn't break down with loads of info on it. I hope this one's a winner
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I use this card in my new Nikon D90. I am amazed at how fast the Extreme cards are. You are able to shoot pictures one after the other, no waiting what so ever (unlike my point and shoot camera). I recommend these cards to everyone. They are outstanding!! I bought the 8GB and on my D90 it can hold up to 2000 pictures!!!
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
holds alot of pix and info and fast uploading and downloading.. anv very reliable
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I don't know what to say, it does what it's supposed to do. I've used one and my friend has used another, the third one I bought is one of the backup memory cards I have in my bag. It works pretty fast, and so far I haven't had any problems with the storage or access. Believe it or not, but some memory cards actually do not record images correctly. But so far, no such problems with this card. I'm happy with it.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Its a sandisk, always reliable.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
This card is typical of what I've come to expect from Sandisk products. Absolutely reliable with better than specified speed. But looks like Sandisk has done some cost cutting and the USB card reader is no longer included (although... Sandisk still includes the rescue tools cd). This can be a problem with older PCs that may not have an SDHC reader. If the reader was included, I'd have given 5 stars.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Extremely reliable and lightning fast interface
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Could of bought this product from anywhere but Abe's of Maine was my final destination. Easy interface, reliable service and reasonable shipping cost. Price is always right at Abe's.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I ordered a few of these for a Canon HD-100 digital camcorder. These cards seem to work fine in this unit.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Using this Sandisk Extreme III card with my Nikon D90 I can get the full number of frames per second. It is much faster than my Transcend 8Gb Class 6 which goes to show that not all class 6 cards are created equal.
I bought three (good manufacturer rebate at the time) and I also use one in my Canon G9. The card accepts data faster than the camera can write it, but it is still a benefit when you come to pull the images off the card onto the computer. Here, the Sandisk Extreme III is much faster than the Transcend.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
- Works great in burst mode shooting
- Due to the SDHC format, you'll need an additional card reader.
- Very fast speeds.

I use this for two things: as my EEE PC's secondary harddrive and for my digital camera... I bought two. It's the fastest sd card I've used and in transferring files on my computer, it's faster than my Kingston USB 2.0 Memory stick. This was also very cheap, [$] each!

This is the best SDHC card money can buy during the 2008, I am sure new cards will come when time goes. I am using this card for both video recording as well as STILL pictures, it writes the pictures immediately no delay seen so far for a large clips also. It's really great.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:

Perfect for my Canon HG20 and Nikon D60. I use max resolution on my HG20 and D60 and the SD card works great on both.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Abes had the memory at a reasonable price to begin with and after rebates the the memory card is a steal. Use with my Nikon D40 DSLR and the images write very fast and only need one memory card (hold lots of 4MB and 6MB images).
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Sandisk is the most reliable brand among the others. I used PQI, A-Data and Transcend in the past. Both PQI and A-Data are the most unreliable brands and their cards just went dead too quickly. Sandisk does cost more than other brands, but you get what you pay for. If you want great quality memory cards, Sandisk is the way to go. When you are on the road shooting pictures, you don't want to deal with a defective card like PQI or A-Data.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
Really fast at a great price. Using three in three different cameras.
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
8GB is the perfect size for use in your camera. It has plenty of space for your photos and is about the fastest SDHC card you can currently buy. I have tested the speed of this card and it is substantially faster than the previous SD cards I have owned. I have a Nikon D90 which captures 720p video too... the Sandisk is plenty fast and spacious to store a good amount of this video.I guess the only negative to the card is that it is a little more pricey than other SDHC, but I got a great deal from [...], so this negative didn't really apply to me.Two thumbs up!
Comments about Sandisk Extreme III SDHC 8GB Memory Card:
I bought this card and than in 3 days I took over 1000 photos in my trip. My camera haven't been so fast like that. I recommend this product to everyone.
