How many pictures will it store?
(5 out of 5) by Brent D. Payne on Nov 5, 2004 (Chicago, IL)How many pictures will it store? It is the most commonly asked question from digital camera enthusiast but usually the question that is the most difficult to get a straight answer about. Well, considering I worked in the memory industry for over 7 years I can help clarify this perplexing question and do so unbiased as I have since changed industries.
The Kingston 128MB Secure Digital Memory Card, like most 128MB cards, will store on average 142 pictures when used with a 2 megapixel camera, 106 images when used with a 3 megapixel camera, 64 pictures when used with a 4 megapixel camera, 51 images when used with a 5 megapixel camera, and 40 pictures when used with a 6 megapixel camera. These numbers are based off the assumption that you are going to shoot your images at the highest quality JPEG setting available for the camera and understand that they are estimates and may be off by as much as 10 percent due to numerous factors including the complexity of the scene being shot and the compression algorithm used by your specific camera.
I truly hope this review was helpful to you in determining whether this card is the right capacity for your specific needs.

No problems with this
(5 out of 5) by okiemunchkin on Apr 29, 2005Bought this item over a year ago and have had no problems with this card. It holds lots of pictures (depending on your settings) and hasn't caused me any problems. Well worth the money! I take lots of pictures of my son and anytime we go anywhere new, so it gets used a lot.

Great Prices on SD cards!
(5 out of 5) by M. Domyan on Nov 4, 2004 (PA)SD cards are dropping in price on a daily basis it seems.
I don't like to use too large of a capacity since my tragic event at Disney took place. I had a 256 card and an error happened on my camera (which I have since trashed for this incident and bought a new Nikon) but anyway I had over 300+ pics on my card and could only pull off about 40 of DisneyWorld. I cried.
So as a suggestion...clean off your Memory cards after each event and don't go for the 512MB or the 1GB cards unless you are putting video on it or etc.
Now I am a happy person once again since my hubby's going to take me back to DW to replenish those missing pics!

Slow Writing, but fast reading
(4 out of 5) by Sammy7 on Aug 24, 2004Bought this card for my XDA I PDA. Worked fine right out of the box. However, this only showed up as 118mb card !!! not sure if this is the SD card itself or the PDA causing the loss of some 10mb worth of space.
Also it is slow to write to the card, but quite fast when reading from the card.

Kingston 128 memory card is OK
(4 out of 5) by Byron L. Milburn on Feb 7, 2007 (windblownks,USA)I've used a Kingston memory card with a Kodak CX7530 digital camera for over a year now and have no complaints.I have 4 different cards that I use and believe that this one is one of the better ones as it seems to transfer a clearer and better quality picture to the printer.I hope your luck is as good.
