Guys,
So very sorry as I have to bring up this topic, but I am having a bit of problem now. Currently using a Transcend 4GB card, and about 5% of my picts are corrupt. There are jagged images and fractions of images joint together in one frame. Is this normal? Reformatted it a few times, using both my KM 5D and A100, with the same results. By the way, anybody selling Sandisk cards here, I heard they are more reliable. How about Apacer?
Going to buy new one soon. Is buying a smaller capacity, say 2gb is safer? Please help me with yr advice...

Maybe's my luck ... I never have a corrupted image my entire life due to CF card defect. Maybe becoz I only use Sandisk or Kingston?

same here... sandisk user

I have 4 x 2gb sandisk, and never had any corrupt pictures yet

maybe its just your luck? or it happens everytime ?

how about mine? tomato......check my signature to link to my thread........mayb that problem wont happen in this brand

Used Kingston, Imation & Transcend.
I find them all reliable.

bigger car spoil easier ? No such thing..its the brand and durability ...also how the user taking care of the thing

Yes go for Sandisk, more realiable. Owned a PENDRIVE brand too, but fell Sandisk will be more faster.

i only use sandisk or lexar brand does matter

joined images... dats new..

my damn lexar 2gb 80x WA crashed too....damn it...

I am using Transcedn 1gb 120x, very good, but i would recommend u try this way, transfer all photo by using card reader + use 'copy' function only. then put it back to camera, format everytime u want to start new and make sure format in camera.

and pls only use 1 type/brand of card in the camera- my stupid thinking.

I amy get 2gb version, but didnt saw the booth in pc fair, may go to low yat or pyramid to find out.

Ditto. Only time i saw joined images was with my film camera when the film didnt advance properlly to the next frame.

only sandisk, lexar and kingston...
other than that, i wont use.
