SanDisk - Extreme PLUS 32GB SDHC UHS-I Memory Card

I love this new card. It has a lot of space. With my camera it holds up to 4000 pictures (with no video). I know that seems like a lot to some people, but I'm a shutter bug. I've been known to take up to 1,500 pictures on vacation. Plus I'm starting a photography business so I need the extra space. My old card would only hold 1000 pictures ( with no video). It's extremely annoying when you miss the perfect shot because you have to change out cards. This card has never slowed me down when I'm taking pictures. They process very quickly in in the highest shutter speed. Not once have I had to wait for processing before taking another picture, even in high resolution areas. Normally I never would've spent so much money on a memory card, but it was on sale after thanksgiving. If I need another one I will gladly pay full price. This is a great memory card and worth every penny for those how take a lot of picture or someone who needs the speed. (Like when you're photographing children, because they never sit still long and it's very easy to miss the shot you want. Plus if you use a high shutter speed you can get the shot even if they are wiggling around.) Plus it easily transfers the photos to my computer with very little delay.

I primarily use SanDisk cards for my professional photography and haven't really had any issues. This one, however, I used for two different sessions. When I tried to view certain images from the first session, it said file couldn't be found. It was only 2 or 3 of the images so I didn't worry too much about it. The second session (which was later on that day), I specifically remember taking a number of images at one location, though only two actually showed up when reviewing the images later on. The numbering sequence skipped, showing that 12 images were just completely gone (they didn't show up when I tried looking at them later on in the camera, so I know it's not an issue with the card reader). I had already thrown out the packaging from Best Buy, so I couldn't return the card. I always format the card before I use it, so I shouldn't have had any issues. I can't trust using the card anymore, so it's going in the garbage. Waste of money. It was, however, quick at writing and reading, so as long as you don't get a dud, it should be a good card for you.

For a photographer that takes well over 1000 photos everyday, 5-6 days a week, and has to pull the SD card in and out of cameras, readers, and computers repeatedly..... these little powerhouse cards have proven their worth as far as reliability and quality. I now have nearly 60 SD cards in my current daily use collection. About 40-45 of them are SanDisk. Of those, over half are ExtremePlus (like this) or ExtremePro (faster read/write speeds). I have found that I am using the SanDisk ExtremePlus cards more often than any others due to their consistent speeds and the reliability I get from them is far above any others I have used. Their continued use fail rate is quite low, meaning, I can add 1200 photos, pull them off, format the card, and add 1200 more... day after day, week after week, with little worry of fatigue. None of my work cameras (mostly Nikon CoolPix P610 and Sony DSC-HX400) process any faster than these write, and therefore the only reason I keep the ExtremePro card around are for my HD video cameras.

I got this SD card to use in our underwater camera mainly to record video, but it will also increase my ability to snap pictures faster because of its fast write time. The fastest one I have right now writes at 15 MB/sec. This one writes at 40 MB/sec. That is almost 3 times faster. Of course both of these ratings are the good old "writes up to X MB/sec", so I may not be seeing those actual speeds. However, I do notice a difference. Underwater that is important. Once you are out of battery you are out, and unless the dive is a really deep or difficult one (lots of current), I always run out of battery before I run out of air. Another issue is overheating the camera which can fog up the case lens. The faster card helps the camera get ready to take pictures quicker, so I can turn it off for a while to let it cool down. I still may miss a great shot if something like an Eagle Ray goes flying by. All in all I am happy with the card and recommend it to anyone who needs a little performance boost in their camera.

This 32GB Class 10, U-3 card allows faster transferring of digital photo images to my computer (at up to 80MB/second), versus a standard Class 10 card (up to 30MB/second). I also used the Video function on my DSLR for the first time with this SD Extreme Plus card. With the high image quality I selected, my camera would have had about 20 minutes of video time, but I only shot a few bursts of video at less than 5 minutes each. The signage in the aisle at Best Buy was helpful in understanding the difference between the different types of SD cards. For example, what the number inside the circle and the numbers inside of the "U" shape stand for. The larger the megapixels of your images, the more likely you are to notice the faster transfer speed when comparing two different types of SD cards. I have a Nikon Digital SLR in the "Enthusiast" photographer range.

I was looking for an SD memory card that was fast enough for my camera, but also affordable. After looking over several cards, I niticed that there were way faster cards out there; there are cards on the market that were incredibly fast (300mb/s), but they cost a whole lot more. I looked at my DSLR specs and my camera doesn’t record anywhere near 300mb/s, so there was no point in spending the money for it. (Except for faster read speeds). In the end this card provided the fastest read/write speeds at the best value. I’m very satisfied with the card and would recommend it to any one.

The product was pointed out to me by a sales associate. I had originally had the wrong one and he led me to the correct one and explained all about it. It is very fast to upload my pictures onto my computer from my camera and fits I to both without having to use anything additional. The quality is great and I am very happy the associate was there to help me so I didn't have to return and refund and purchase the correct item. Thanks Best Buy for training and keeping your associates knowledgeable. Did I mention they always approach me asking if I need help rather than me having to seek them out? Excellent customer service!

when we purchased the rx100 iv, we thought that the sd card that came with the purchase would be fully compatible with the camera and we would be able to utilize it to the fullest capabilities. the rx100 iv has a super high frame rate mode which lets you shoot slow mo and also 4k video recording. these are awesome features but they take up a lot of data and need a lot of space on the card. this card definitely has plenty of speed for that, but doesnt work for those features. the sd cards to enable those modes must be at least 64gb in size, and so we were never able to use the rx100iv to its full potential. keep that in mind when getting packaged sd cards with your purchase
