I went for the SanDisk Extreme III 2GB for my LZ-18 on your recommendation a while back, and I've not been disappointed with the speed

The prices for SD cards have come down quite a bit too recently, which is good

Feedback is good, not just for me but the members and visitors of the forum. Thank you sire!

I have been doing photography now for over 3 decades and into digital since over a decade, I have yet to come across anyone loose out on a Sandisk or Lexar memory card, but, have heard plenty of horror stories from those who use cheap and unbranded cards. I do not mind paying the premium at todays prices.

I remember the days when I paid over $100 to get a measly 128MB Lexar 4X Compact Flash Card I had it till three months back still working until it was stolen during a burglary at home when I lost all my camera equipment.

At the moment I have nothing and it maybe a while before I can put together a new system.
