I had been looking at that card in my email from them this morning.

Are there a lot of duff card brands out there?

I'll send you a card from my opticians, shall I??

Yes, I had seen that, but the reviews (3 of them) gave a 4 and 5 star rating, hence I posted the link.

All cards work well, right up to the point that they fail.

I see a lot of dodgy cards (the company I work for offer an image retrieval service). Enough to know that there is a difference between the cheap cards that appear under various names and pucker brands like Sandisk or Lexar.

As I see it, a good memory card will pay for itself several times over - why risk losing your images for the sake of saving a few quid.

Just my opinion

Daz i think for £25 its worth the gamble.

If you want to avoid the card failure that Steve mentioned then just

transfer all your images after each imaging session.

Thats what i do now and i have a Hitachi 4Gig microdrive in my camera.

That will do for me. Will avoid the "bargain" thanks Steve

[daz]

Fair do Steve - from a man 'in the know' I'll accept your expertise.

Yeah, it's a bargain, but there's bargains and then there's bargains!!!!

BTW - I'll still send the opticians card! :)
