Imaging pros expect a lot from their equipment and can't afford to have a component limit their productivity or creativity. That's where Kingston's CompactFlash Elite Pro memory cards come in. The newly redesigned Kingston CompactFlash Elite Pro offers a minimum sustained write speed of 133X. The Elite Pro is designed specifically to help advanced amateur or professional photographers get the best performance from their high-end imaging devices and applications.No matter how fast you work, CF Elite Pro can keep pace. With its ultra-fast transfer rates of 25MB/sec. read and 20MB/sec. write, and great capacity, you can capture more continuous, high-resolution images in less time with the Elite Pro than with traditional CompactFlash memory cards. And when it's time to transfer your largest files, watch them fly your production workflow will be more efficient than ever.

Customer Review: Great card! Fast speed!

This is my second kingston compactflash card (another one is 4gb cf). Kingston never lets me down. It works great! Speed is very fast! There are faster CF cards available on the market, but if you want to use the cf cards on digital cameras, you don't really need faster (than 133x kingston) cards. NO camera can take advantage of the faster cards yet. Anyway, this is perfect for digital camera (Dslr).

Customer Review: Card failed, lost vacation pics

Bought this card for my new Canon 40D, took it to Italy, and after a few days of shooting and unloading to back up the pictures, we started to get messages that the card was full (but it wasn't), then it started to zap portions of the existing pics. Later the card failed, saying it was unformatted and it needed to be formatted, which of course meant my pictures for the day were gone. After reformatting it, it failed again about 30 pics later, then failed again after about 10 pics. We gave up, bought an overpriced replacement card at a camera shop, and had zero problems for the remainder of the trip, so it wasn't the camera. Unfortunately we lost about 150 pics in the process of trying to figure out what was going on.
