Great price for a 16gb card. I've had no issues with it at all. Files transfer from it very quickly using an SDHC reader!

I have owned this camera since June 2008, prior to this shot with Canon's PowerShot G2. So my review is based on upgrading from an old but still very good point and shoot camera with manual controls to a modern SLR. Since there are obvious difference between the two I'll concentrate on some of the features I like: Custom setting (C1,C2,C3) and the My Menu setting.

The 40D has a multitude of options available, highlight recover, iso noise reduction, mirror lock up, bracketing, live view, etc... but generally you don't need all of these options all the time, that's where the custom setting function comes in handy. Swapping between different shooting profiles is as easy as turning the dial.

Another feature I like is the My Menu setting as you can put your "favorite" menu ... Read More

What can I say? It performs just as the one that came with the D80. Long life - bought it more as an emergency spare and to rotate so the batteries lasts longer. Legit Nikon product.

Well i bought this SDHC 16GB card few weeks ago for my Asus 901XP PC, i only used it with that computer and with the USB adapter on few other PCs, and so far it works very good. Since i don't have a camera that supports this card i can't say much about it, but this card seems to be fast and recognized (with the usb adapter) on few other PCs with no problem (even old ones) with no need of any driver installation (windows XP). I use this card to safe photons and documents of my PC.

People should realize if a type of card isn't on the specs sheet (such as XD and Smart Media) there's a pretty darn good chance it won't be on the reader itself... Sorry, it just frustrates me when the score of such a nice card reader's brought down by such reviews.

Anyway, great card reader. I've seen reviews claiming it's one of the fastest card readers some sites have tested, and I don't doubt it. Copied a 700MB XviD file to a SDHC Class 6 card in under two minutes. The file then opens quickly and is responds quickly to clicks on the timeline. Of course the speed will only be as fast as the card being used, but these times are fine for me.

Supported formats also suite me just fine. Again, if you need XD or SmartMedia, GET ANOTHER READER! Besides that, about any Compact ... Read More

8.Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Camera Lens from: Canon

List Price: $150.00
Off The Bookshelf's Price: $84.95

Prices subject to change.

Used Price: $70.00

Pro's:

-Great DoF (f/1.8)
-Great bokeh
-Inexpensive

Cons:
-Plastic, unlike the mk1... I've heard it's very easy to break... If you drop it it's a goner
-AF is noisy
-Focusing ring is annoying

Overall:
Overall, I love this lens... It's great, especially for the price. If you can't take perfect care of your lens, save up for the mk1, which is about $300 more, made of metal, and is f/1.4. But if you want a great lens for a cheap price and are willing to take care and just be a bit extra careful, I'd recommend this beauty.

It's just a protection filter. It's does a good work by day though it can create weird flares by night if you are trying to picture below a bright light or if there's one pointing towards you.
It also has a weird glass finish in the edges that make it look cheap (even though it is)

I have had this camera for a little over a month and just love it. I did read the manual the second day and now I can get even better shots of flying geese using the motion setting and the anti-shake button. The auto focus is great for someone trying to get that once in a lifetime shot. It is easy to use even without reading the manual and I was really impressed with the quality of my pictures. I would recommend this camera to anyone. My only regret is that I didn't order the Sony 500mm lense, but maybe next Christmas.
