Where to buy SD cards?
Nippywiffle
I want to get an extra SD card for my optio 450.
I need a 256MB card, and from everywhere I've looked, sandisk are not very
reliable. I've been searching EVERYWHERE for a Panasonic SD card, but noone
seems to sell them. Theres a couple on the american E-bay site, but I don't
want to end up paying import tax. Does anyone know anywhere in the UK where
I can buy a 256Mb PANASONIC SD card? I can find around 3 other makes on a
range of sites, but noone has panasonic.
Everyone seems to recommend panasonic cards over any others - I got a 16mb
panasonic card with my camera, but that size is pretty useless.
Thanks,
Daniel.

But no matter. I seriously doubt there is any /real/
quantifible difference in the quality of various cards.
Reguardless what they "say" on the newsgroups. ;)
If there is anything it would be a batch thing. And the
second or third sort it would require to ensure any kind
of "quality" assured consistency would drive the prices
of that particular card *way* *way* up.
Anyway if you feel good about Panasonic that's the important
thing. I recommend trying www.panasonic.co.uk or .com
and then looking for a list of "suggested" retail outlets.
BTW, I'm pretty sure Panasonic is not a memory card OEM
but rather a VAR using parts from other manufacturers.
I /could/ totally be wrong about that though. It's just
my *guess* from working inside Machusta (Panasonic) here
in Japan.

rate and more than doube the speed of the Panasonic super fast unit and the
new Sandisk Plus unit.
They cost about 10-20% more but the speed is worth it
