Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Worked good for a year
I bought this for a Dimage 7Hi camera. It worked good for a year, now the camera can't write to it anymore. I tried formating it with the computer and the camera still don't work


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Works fine with a Cannon A80, a little slow though
I have been using this for several months on a Cannon A80, with no problems. As some users have also pointed out, it is slow loading the pictures to your camera. I suppose thats a tradeoff for the low price.


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Poor Quality
I purchased the Viking 1GB CompactFlash card when I purchased the Canon 20D. I had only taken around 100 pictures when I began to get the "Data corrupt" error. My mistake was that I gave it several more chances. I formatted it several times and I continue to get the same error, not to mention I lost some pictures I had taken earlier which cannot be replicated. It's not worth the money nor the headache. It's better to spend an extra $30 on a better quality CompactFlash card than to have wonder whether you'll lose the pictures you just took.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - low cost compact flash
I bought this card with Minolta 7D SLR digital camera so I qualified for $23.99 mailing rebate. The card itself also comes with another mailing rebate. The all-in cost for this compact flash card cannot be beat. I have only played with this card a few days and so far there's no problem. The card is probably made by Toshiba because when I put it into my computer's card reader, it's being registered as a Toshiba disk. I don't frequently take continuous-advance shots so the write speed doesn't affect me much. This is a great low cost compact flash card for those who do not demand fast-write speed.


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - It worked fine initially but giving lots of problem now
I bought this card to go with my S500 camera, for first 2 trips it worked well. On our third trip suddenly it started giving "Data Corrupt" error which I could solve by deleting that particular photograph. After that my husband carried the camera and this card to Europe for business meeting and it started giving same error there. Since then everytime we put card in the camera, the camera hangs. Even Ritz camera people couldn't recover photographs.

The viking customer service was helpful enought to recommend the photo rescue software which costs $29.99 to recover the photographs. I could see the photographs but my purpose of saving money with this card is lost as I will have to spend extra money for the photo rescue software.
