Sounds like it should be backward compatible provided your device can handle the 4GB size.

These are class 4 anyway. New chips are the faster class 6. I would rather have extreme class 6 than optimized class 4.
I just emailed my MIR for the Beach Camera deal for tripple of the Sandisk SDHC 4GB for about $7 each shipped.

My guess? Just marketing hype.

A digital ready tripod is.. a tripod. ("I plan on using the tripod with a Mamiya C330, so unless you have some analog-ready tripods, I'll have to shop elsewhere.")

A tactical camera bag is... a camera bag. ("I don't want to fool around with tactical. Have you any strategic camera bags?")

And don't even get me started on "mil-spec" camera straps and "Y2k ready" rechargeable batteries.

And if you come across an ad touting how well a particular SDHC card captures brilliant colors, or handles very low light levels, buy a competing brand.

just got this in mail, card supposed to be class 4 but I got class 2, wtf?

picture that was there on sunday showed class 4, I checked IE history

Does anyone have a saved page of this they could send me? I recieved mine today also and it was the class 2 instead of the class 4.

got class 2 card also!!!

i was expecting to get the sd video card 4gb, which should of been class 4

Hmm. In the other thread about the 4GB Sandisk Micro retractable USB flash drives, people reported getting a different flash drive than that which was pictured on their web site, a non-retractable drive.

Seems like this "Abe's of Maine" place does this sort of thing, does it not.
