One of the best cards out there. You did just fine.

I purchased the same type but in 2GB size during Radio Shack's Black Friday sale. I'll be purchasing my XTi in the first week of March with a 18-55 IS. Where are you located in FL, Depth?

I use to live in Brandon about 18 years ago...then moved to Carollwood now back in the Northeast...When I lived there they were just clearing the land for that big mall and Rte 60 was only 2 lanes....lol.....I don't miss the congestion of the Tampa area....

Good CF card BTW....

Great card, and I've been wanting a 4GB myself. One of these days I'll buy one. I have a couple of 1GB ones that I purchased back in the day when I bought my XT and I have a ton of 2GB ones, but NEED a 4GB.

Very good purchase, but the XTi is a better purchase.

I'm using the 4gb Extreme III...probably not much difference from the Ultra II...great choice

[slimninj4]

I love the extras it comes with. I now looking to get a 4gb one.

[ZekaG]

I have three copies of exactly the same card. No problems whatsoever.

[dugcross]

I've been using Sandisk since I broke into digital. Never had a problem with them.

[dinanm3atl]

have 2 of them.

Work great!

[JohnnyG]

Good one for sure!

I am using the Extreme III in my 1D. If I use the Ultra II I notice a slowdown in speed. The Ultra II works great in my 20D and 30D. Fast enough for those cameras.

I have had no problem with the 2 gig version.

Got 2 of these and 4 of the 2 GB, work a treat in both my XTi and 40D ...

If you shoot in Raw, get a bigger card. Carrying multiple cards can be hazardous - if you lose one. Also check your card -practice shots to make sure the new card is not a dud. This happens, if you follow in these forums many a sad story !!!

[Maxdave]

The other school of thought says that using fewer, larger cards can be hazardous, because when you lose one basket (or it becomes unreadable), you lose more eggs. I get over 100 shots per 2 GB card, and I shoot RAW.

i have 2 and 4 gig versions of the card you pictured and they have done great for me

I was thinking the exact same thing when I was reading that last post. I follow Maxdaves school of thought.

[BIGTUFFGUY]

I've been using the Extreme line since day 1 and I'm sold on these cards.

[joysmahal]

I have the same memory card (4GB SanDisk Ultra). Works fine in my 40D and my previously owned XTi.

I just hope you didn't buy it on eBay. The one's selling on eBay - especially the ones coming from Hong Kong / China are well known for being fakes.
