Great Performer December 31, 2006 C. D. Lathem 30 out of 30 found this review helpful
I have been using Sandisk Ultra II Compact Flash and Secure Digital in my Canon 1DMkII bodies for more than two years. Canon recently upgraded the camera firmware so it is compatible with SDHC. I found out Sandisk had produced an Ultra II version of the SDHC at 4GB. The performance is equal to the Ultra II SD I have been using. It reads and writes at stated speed. Despite the information in the Amazon listing for this product it is NOT a class 2 card. It is much faster.
If you like the Sandisk Ultra II 2GB SD card you will like this card as well. The addition of a USB card reader is a very nice touch as there are not too many of these readers on the market yet.
SanDisk Ultra II 4GB SDHC card May 14, 2007 Genesee Jeff (Colorado) 17 out of 17 found this review helpful
I've had the card for a few weeks now and used it to take over 900 pictures and a total of about 5 minutes of video. It has worked flawlessly. Obviously, a lot depends upon your specific camera, but in my Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3 there is a fast recycle time and the video is smooth. It does get a little warm, but that is typical of these high-capacity cards.
Surprised by Ultra/Ultra II name change but same card December 15, 2009 Ruth in NM 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
The Ultra vs Ultra II discrepancy bothered me, too, when I received mine recently. However, after some Googling I found that SanDisk has modified the names on some of their product lines. If you go to their Web site, you'll find there is no longer an SD "Ultra II" card, it is now just the "Ultra", with a redesigned label matching the card sent to me. It still has the same SanDisk part number as before, though (SDSDRH-004G-A11), and the same specs. The label also still indicates it's a Class 4 SD device. As far as I can tell from Web posts (not many), it is only the name that has changed.
This change needs to be noted in the item description/photos so that customers are not confused by it.
When I tested it in my camera the card had no trouble keeping up with continuous video (standard def). Do note that this is an *SDHC* card, so make sure your device is compatible before purchasing it.
Good card, but not the fastest in the bunch November 21, 2007 ubat (Sao Paulo, Brazil) 10 out of 11 found this review helpful
The Sandisk Ultra II SDHC I received is a Class 4 card, not a Class 2. I think the product page is wrong -- either that, or I don't know what happened. Anyhow, SDHC cards come in three classes, according to their speed performance: 2, 4 or 6, 2 being the slowest and 6 the fastest. A class 2 is already faster than a regular SD card. If your device is compatible with SDHC, go for it because the speed difference is noticeable. In my case, the camera writing speed is a lot better than with the SD (but a bit slower than with a class 6). And the convenience of having 4Gb of space in your device is unbeatable! I've had no problems with this card in my new camera, and the card reader that ships with it is a necessity: older card readers can't read SDHC (not even the built-in reader in the laptop I acquired last February can do it). No issues for me between the reader and Windows XP. So far, both the card and the reader have been reliable.
If your device can take an SDHC card, this is for you! February 21, 2007 Christopher Erickson 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
Over time I have really come to appreciate the quality and speed of SanDisk products and this SDHC card is no exception.
It works perfectly with my Treo-680. The "EP Memory" brand 4GB card I purchased prior to this card does not! I sure got snookered on that investment. Never again! The card was bad and apparently their 5 year warranty means nothing.
Anyway back to the Sandisk 4GB card. It works perfectly and the inclusion of a USB SDHC card reader is wonderful.
Thanks again, Sandisk!
