Buenas,Compré esta tarjeta pensando en su momento en darle un uso profesional con una Fuji XT-1 y otras cámaras. Después de mucho uso, os aseguro que funciona muy bien. Ahora explico por qué:Usándola en una XT-1 el refresco es muy rápido (esto es muy importante pues todo es electrónico al no tener espejo) y permite tener la cámara a pleno funcionamiento, sino que permite también en hacer ráfagas largas de fotografías sin que se ralentice antes de tiempo, como ocurre con otras tarjetas. Probé tarjetas de otras marcas que en teoría por características eran igual que ésta, pero ni de lejos tienen el mismo rendimiento.También he tenido que cubrir evento este verano a 45 grados y la tarjeta no dio error por sobre calentarse, pese a tirar muchas fotos sin descanso. Hay que pensar que la cámara sufre el calor ambiente, de su funcionamiento propio y del calor que le transmitimos por las manos, así que aguante el tirón la tarjeta es buena señal.Lo dicho, no tengáis duda, pues merece la pena. Aparte es de una marca de confianza todo sea dicho.Espero que os haya servido de ayuda.Saludos,

Excellent card. You can actually write to it at close to 95MB/s using a USB 3.0 adapter. My camera can now burst like never before. I prefer to carry multiple lower capacity cards, so 16Gb is the sweet spot for me.

I had an eye on this card for more than 6 months now, but as it came in my budget i immediately ordered it for my upcoming tour.The card offers great speed.Amazon delivered it to Nasik from Bangalore on 3rd day despite the one day delivery not available. And it was delivered on a sunday! Thats some great service from amazon.inThe claimed 95MBPS and 90MBPS are achieved sometimes. But at the least it writes at 70MBPS and reads at 80 MBPS in my laptop card reader. Maybe the best SD card. I have only seen super expensive CF cards performing better than this.And in camera performance is great, I can shoot ,more than 70 24mp fine quality JPEGs at 5fps. But the important thing is, I can shoot 24mp raw files at 5fps for first 8-9 shots and then the camera continues at about 3-3.5 fps for more than 25 shots afterwards. So even if it slows down (its inevitable) u can still shoot at decent rate rather than waiting 6-8 seconds for clearing the buffer. I shoot rally races half the year and birds in winter so its a must have.So overall the performance is really great. Its a must have for every DSLR owner who shoots action or wilflife. Just see that your DSLR has a processor which can cope with the speed otherwise you will not be able to utilise the true speed of this card.In one line- If your wallet and camera supports it, go for it look nowhere else.

Ich setze zwei dieser Karten in meiner Nikon D7000 DSLR ein. Eine Karte hält dabei die Standbilder fest, die andere Karte wird zum Abspeichern von HD-Videos im zweiten Kartenschacht der Kamera genutzt. Auch nach zehntausenden Fotos rund um den Globus und etlichen 100 GB an Videos halten die Karten ganz wunderbar und haben mich noch nie im Stich gelassen. Dabei war so ziemlich alles an äußeren Einflüssen, 48 Grad Celsius im Death Valley und knapp -40 Grad im knackigen Winter in Wisconsin.An einem Lexar LRW300URBEU Kartenleser mit USB 3.0 Schnittstelle habe ich folgende Transferraten gemessen:Schreiben von 8 MB Blöcken: 81 MB/sLesen von 8 MB Blöcken: 88 MB/sIch bin vollständig überzeugt von dieser SD-Karte. So überzeugt, dass ich mich inzwischen auf diese beiden SD-Karten beschränke, wenn es um wichtige Fotos und Videos geht. Genau genommen hat meine D7000 seit ihrem Kauf vor mehr als zwei Jahren, nie eine andere SD-Karte gesehen, als diese beiden Schätze! ;)

I bought this card for my Nikon D7000, after reading many reviews and discussions on a photographers forum. It hasn't disappointed me. After taking many photos and downloading them to my computer via card slot, and inserting them into a photo file that I created as a desktop file folder for photos, I have not experienced any problems at all. My camera seams to shoot more smoothly with less buffer time. If I didn't know better, It seams that the photos that I've taken with it, are better and sharper than before. At least they look like they are sharper. That's with using the same lenses and camera settings as with the other cards before. This card is awesome, and I will certainly be buying more of these as I need them.

Works like a charm in my new Nikon D610. It is fast and has enough space so that it gives me enough RAW shots before I need to change it out. I like 16GB cards. That way, if I am traveling, I swop out cards after so many shots and if my camera is stolen, I don't lose hundreds of shots, just what was on that one card.

Als Besitzer ein hochwertigen Digicam sind es dann eben manchmal die Details, die einen weiter bringen. Meine Sony RX 100 ist eine tolle Kamera mit fantastischen Möglichkeiten für meine Anforderungen. Im Serienbildmodus dauerte mir die Bildverarbeitung jedoch etwas zu lange, sodass die Aufnahmen ins Stocken gerieten. Und das, obwohl ich die Sandisk Pro mit 45 MB/s benutze.Auf der Suche nach einer "Tuningmöglichkeit" stieß ich durch Internetrecherche auf die Extreme Pro, viele hilfreiche Amazon Rezessionen haben mich neugierig gemacht. Da die Extreme Pro (zumindest bei uns in Mannheim) nicht mal in den großen Händlerregalen der großen zwei liegt war eine Bestellung hier bei Amazon fällig.Nach dem Einlegen erstmal die SD Karte in der Kamera formatiert und dann gleich ab in den Serienbildmodus. Das Ergebnis: ein wahrer Wow-Effekt! Ich bin restlos begeistert von der Geschwindigkeit, mit der Daten auf die Extreme Pro geschrieben werden, meine Kameraleistung hat sich gefühlt wirklich verdoppelt.Werde mir wohl noch eine zweite Extreme Pro bestellen....und die Extreme dafür verkaufen, der Unterschied ist mir einfach zu groß, darauf möchte ich nicht mehr verzichten.

I have been using this card for a month now, and it does the job well and it's very fast no issue what so ever. The manufacture claims it's weather proof, I would not want to put tha to test except to hope that they are right when I need it to be weather proof.I have used this brand befor for a long time 5 years CF card and it's still working like a champ.Recommend this card for some one who wants reliability and speed but if you are a person who dont mined that, then this is not for you. There are a lot cheaper option out there that will do the job.

I bought this to use with my new Nikon D3200 and it works great. I recorded a ton of video and never had one single hiccup. I also put the camera on sports mode and snapped away, shot after shot after shot and it kept up with all my shots. I had a PNY card before this and it was giving me all sorts of problems. Once I switched to this card, all my problems went away. Definitely a great card

UPDATE: May 31, 2013 - I have recently moved from Windows 7 (what I was running when I wrote the original review and the previous update) to Windows 8 and have noticed that Nikon file uploads from this card are now substantially faster. I have not done in-depth testing but my Windows 8 uploads of my Nikon files now transfer at approximately 60MB/s sustained. MUCH better than the sustained 20ishMB/s for my D800E uploads under Windows 7 and still substantially faster than my D5100/D7000 uploads under Win7.And lol, I don't want to get into any debates about how crappy Win8 is. Yes, out of the box it is downright unusable. But, for just $5 you can instantly purchase and download Stardock's Start8 product that will return the Start Button and Start MENU (as opposed to Win8's Start SCREEN) and you can disable most of the really bothersome corner actions and swipe actions from Start8. Then, Win8 is actually pretty tight! It's fast and has WAY better sleep/resume functionality than Win7. My Win8 computers wake up faster than my Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet! However, with Win8, scrollbar contrast is absolutely horrible in browsers and there is no setting or even RegEdit to remedy this. Stardock's WindowBlinds (essentially custom skins for the User Interface) for $10 MAY remedy this and I will be looking into this shortly... So, use the failure of out-of-the-box Win8 as an awesome opportunity to get really good touchscreen laptop or even desktop hardware at really discounted pricing then spend $5 for Start8 and you're all set! ;)UPDATE (This update was written prior to my May 31, 2013 Update above): As I now have a Nikon D800E I thought I'd share my results for that particular camera (and presumably the D800 as well) as this card will be a likely choice for D800/E users. As mentioned in my original review below, there appears to be an issue with Nikon files and transfer speed being relatively slow with this card. This problem is worse with the D800E. I shoot either Uncompressed RAW + Large Basic JPEG or Lossless Compressed RAW + Large Basic JPEG and approximately 75% of the time my D800E files transfer at 18-22MB/second. This is no faster than transfers from a Transcend Class 6 card. The other 25% or so of the time I get transfer rates as high as 38MB/second. Better, but pretty poor performance from a claimed 95MB/second card. I have yet to sustain a 45MB/second transfer with my D800E files.In all fairness, I have not shot with any other cards in my D800E and don't know if slower cards will transfer slower than this card does.ORIGINAL REVIEW BELOW:First, let's be clear about transfer speeds. And for the record, all speeds I mention in this review are my ACTUAL MEASURED speeds, not manufacturer-claimed or hypothetical limits. I'm talking my real world experience. I use a Transcend TS-RDF8K USB 3.0 card reader and I transferred to a benchmarked 514MB/s write, 551MB/s read Mushkin Chronos solid state drive. See 3rd to last paragraph for camera frame advance rate information and the last paragraph for USB 2.0, USB 3.0 and FireWire information.My main concern with memory card speed is for computer uploads after a day or night of shooting... First, let me get the ATTO Disk Benchmark numbers out of the way. Doing the 1GB Total Length test, from 64K to 8192K samples, the read speed is consistently at 85MB/s for reads and 71MB/s to 77MB/s for writes. I never got even 86MB/s or more (aside from the initial data transfer rate spikes) once during my testing and feel SanDisk is lying about the card's ability to hit 95MB/s. It never even hit 86MB/s a single time. So, that's benchmarking. Now on to the real world.I have some conflicting results with these cards (I have 3 of the SanDisk 16GB "95MB/s" cards; 1 for each of 3 cameras):When transferring files from my Canon S100 card, I routinely hold 80-81MB/s uploads to my computer. Not bad at all! Especially being that they are real world numbers. However, they're supposed to be 95MB/s cards. The only time I ever see 95MB+/s is the MOMENT they start transferring data. Same as any other card, there is that initial spike and then the numbers drop fast. So, 80MB/s is a nice fast upload even though I paid for 95MB/s. I feel like I'm getting shorted by 16%. :(When transferring from my Nikon D5100 card, after the initial spike I only sustain, *gulp*, about 40-45MB/s uploads. :( VERY disappointing! That's only 33-50% faster than the 30MB/s cards that cost WAY less and not even double the speed of the Transcend Class 6 or 10 cards (Transcend Class 6 is the same speed as their Class 10) that cost 1/4 what these cards do. I'd like to blame SanDisk for this but in all honesty, I think it is something with the Nikon files. I don't see how this is possible but when I put my Nikon files on the Canon S100's card, I get the same 40-45MB/s transfer speeds. Therefore, it's not an individual card's idiosyncrasy. It's probably something with those Nikon files. Makes no sense to me, but I can't figure any other reason. It's not the card, because they all benchmark within 1% of each other and handle Canon S100 files like the other cards and Nikon files like the other cards. If anyone can help me out with this Nikon slow speed issue, please comment here. Thanks. :)Uploading Nikon files TO the card (write speed) from my computer, I get about 60MB/s. Strange that this is faster than the read speed...REGARDING CAMERA FRAME ADVANCE RATE... I've reviewed the SanDisk 30MB/s (real life 30MB/s computer uploads with USB 3.0) card and Transcend Class 10 cards (real life 25MB/s computer uploads with USB 3.0) in the past and I found there to be literally only approximately a 0.1% SanDisk 30MB/s card frame advance rate advantage in both my Nikon D90 and D7000. Such a minuscule "advantage" could easily be attributable to my stopwatch button-pressing. I informally tested the "95MB/s" card in my D7000 in Continuous High advance shooting "Lossless Compressed" RAW files only, not RAW+JPEG. I got 9 frames (buffer capacity) at rated FPS of 6FPS and then jerky buffer-restricted advance at 1.5 frames per second. My Class 6 and 10 cards give me the same 9 frames in 1.5 seconds and then continue after the buffer is exhausted at 0.7FPS. In other words, the "95MB/s" card gets you an extra 0.8FPS after the buffer is exhausted. So, card speed means pretty much nothing when shooting RAW files. I don't know about Class 2 or 4 cards potentially slowing things down, but who cares about such slow cards that nobody has anyway? ;) However, though card speed does nothing for RAW FPS, what it may do is raise the JPEG quality and/or size that a camera can shoot in while maintaining maximum FPS (i.e. hypothetically 6FPS forever in Normal Medium JPEG with the "95MB/s" card vs. Normal Small JPEG with a typical Class 10 card). RAW frame advance rate is ALL about the camera's buffer and data output rate, NOT the memory card. PERIOD. It is a myth that card speed matters for RAW frame advance rate.So, is it worth it? To me, yes. Even at only 40MB/s, these cards save me a lot of time when uploading several to many GB per transfer. At 80MB/s, fuhgeddaboudit, absolutely! If you get paid for photography, time is money and these cards save a lot of time and frustration waiting therefore are worth the money. If you shoot video, you'll save LOTS of time so these cards are totally worth it. So if I love the cards so much, why only 4 stars? Because if you only transfer 250MB per day, these cards will do nothing for you. They won't help your camera in any way and will only save you literally 6.9 seconds per day (250MB takes 10 seconds with a Transcend Class 6 or 10 card or takes 3.1 seconds with a true 80MB/s card like this SanDisk "95MB/s" card). I'm also upset that I usually only get 40-45MB/s uploads and many people are buying this card thinking it will give their DSLRs crazy fast frame advance rates and that is straight-up mythology since it won't even help at all and for them it will be totally wasted money.A NOTE ON COMPUTER TRANSFER SPEED... If your computer is NOT FireWire and/or USB 3.0 equipped and/or you are using a USB 2.0 card reader on a USB 3.0/FireWire computer, you're NOT going to get better than a hair over 20MB/s transfer speeds regardless of card speed. Just a limitation of USB 2.0, not the card.
