I have a DSLR which uses Complact Flash memory cards while my wife has a point and shoot which uses SD memory cards. With this adapter we only need ONE type of card - the SD and will work in both cameras. Also, my computer accepts directly the SD card for downloading, but not the Compact Flash. I can remove SD from compact flash adapter and insert directly into computer for downloading. I read that the through put of the adapter may limit the speed. I cannot answer as I never shoot 4 or 5 pics per second. At most I might shoot two/second very occasionally and it works fine. I strongly suspect that the the through put is more limited by the SD card and speed than the adapter. It works great for me and have no problems.

Watch out for Type I vs Type II, this may not fit your device
This SD to CF adapter, like all others it seems, is in a Type II CF package, which is 5mm tall. Type I is 3.3mm tall. This card does not fit in my Nikon Coolpix 990. Double check your device's specs before planning to use one of these adapters.
Eye-Fi card in Canon 30D- it works!
Does exactly what I wanted- allows me to use an Eye-Fi card (specifically an Eye-Fi Explore 2 GB Wi-Fi SD Flash Memory Card EYE-FI-2EX (OLD VERSION) ) in a Canon EOS 30D CF card slot- and it all seems to be working perfectly.

I dont work for the company or anything just so everyone knows......I ordered 4 of these in place of a Phillips HDMI, an INSIGNIA HDMI and a 2 pack of VIZIO HDMI cables of which I purchased for a total of over 0!!!!! These cables produce the same quality of the VIZIO cables and they are more HEAVY DUTY FEELING and 3 foot longer each and WAY WAY WAY cheaper!!!!! Not to mention that they support ARC (audio return channel)and 3D! I have 1 hooked to a 120hrtz Aquios LCD 42inch and the other 3 hooked up to a 42inch Panasonic Viera Plasma to connect an XBOX360, a PS3 and a HD Sat Receiver box and everything and I mean everything looks amazing, spectacular, phenomenal, particularly the 1080p Signal that I now get from my xbox (the other cable I was using was a 1080p cable but only getting 1080i to my plasma) this cable gets the "P" to the 1080!!!! for you cant go wrong and I can tell you that for a fraction of what I paid for the other cables these are way better, produce better picture, sound great, feel very well made compared to the other cables that are being returned to the store and you get more length for way less dollars.....IT ALL ADDS UP PEOPLE, JUST BUY THESE AND STOP READING THIS ALREADY! I'M SURE YOU GET THE POINT!
FLAWLESS GREAT PRODUCT FOR A GREAT PRICE, AND READING OTHER REVIEWS I AM POSITIVE THAT IF I EVER NEED ANYTHING FROM MEDIABRIDGE THAT THEY WILL BE THERE TO HELP.
P.S..... BLU-RAY LOOKS INSANE!

High end cable at not such a high end price.
Bought this cable to connect my Xbox 360 to my HDMI computer screen, and it has really brought my gaming and movies to life! The improvements this mediabridge cable has made to my visual experience with my 360 over Microsoft's 360 HDMI cable are mind-numbingly obvious. Microsoft should be ashamed of themselves for giving out such garbage cables. With the mediabridge cable, my 360 puts out a sharper, more colorfully accurate picture. If you are in the market for a low price, high quality HDMI cable, look no farther!!!
Exactly What Was Needed, Even The Price!
I needed additional HDMI cables, but couldn't see myself spending - for "Monster" cables at BestBuy, so I did my research and came across these. Getting the same product, for less than per cable, I was able to buy 6 for the price of one "Name Brand"
And they are not cheaply made, they are well put together and I will use them for many years to come!
Works
you don not need an expensive cord to get digital signal. this works just as well and preforms great
Plug and Play!
The quality was good and the cable was well built! I have no issues with this cable. It is a great value.

What can be said? It does as supposed. Sure, the more expensive ones might use heavier gauge wire and insulation, but these work no lesser than any other more expensive ones that I have tried.. A great buy from a great company. In all my numerous past purchases, I have never had to RMA anything back to Amazon. Evidently, they only deal with reputable resellers.

Great find
Compared to electronics stores & some other web sites, these are a terrific deal. They work just as well as the famous brand cables for a fraction of the cost. I bought three for my new receiver & they all work fine. Spending more won't get you a better cable.
For the price, they work !!
For the price of these cables, they work. Digital is digital. For a few bucks, these wires do what they have to. I use a 12' cable for my 58'' Samsung on the quality of your television. These wires work just fine and do the job. The price is totally worth it and you will feel like you got your money's worth. I would recommend them to anyone.

So far this cable had been great. Have had no problems what so ever. Cable stays securely in the Hdmi jack on my t.v. Great picture and sound clarity. Cable is great for the price. Again Amazon or the seller through Amazon has ranked number 1 and taken the top spot away from any outlet store you have to drive to and make your away around people. Thats for sure. Amazon will one day rule it all.

GREAT HDMI Cables!!
These are GREAT HDMI cables - I use them to watch Blu-Ray movies and with my TV it makes everything life-like!! Great bargain for the money! I have NO idea why anyone would go to Best Buy or Frys to pay for a single cable, I bought 3 of them and they are absolutely great! I would buy them over and over again!!
Works with 3D, can't beat the price.
This cable works with 3D as it says it will. I can't really detect any sinificant difference between this cable and a more expensive one. It is thinner and lighter than the more expensive cable, but for the price it does what it says for now.
Seem like nice thick quality cable. Works great with nice picture.
Nice cable. Seems to be of high quality: Thick cable, tight fit into HDMI port, and quality construction.
I LOVE IT
This product is very very very durable. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a high quality HDMI cable. The whole thing in general, feels extremely sturdy. Not to mention, It looks really good too. I am quite impressed. Bravo!

Very Pleased
This item was shipped as stated and arrived in new condition. No complaints and I would buy from them again.
Great HDMI cable
The cable is good quality and it gives great hd to my ps3 and cable box. One of the best out there and also one of the best prices as well. You can't beat that. Highly recommended.
Eh, ok.
I bought two of these as my friend had gotten one for his PS3 and had no problems. Both of mine though have to be twisted a certain way, and one end is considered the input, and the other output. I gave it three stars, though because it does work, if plugged in correctly.

This is the best cable I have had for the money. Don't ever pay more than for an HDMI cable. I bought 2 in case one didn't work and the first one hasn't failed so I have an extra one as a backup now. I paid less than for 2 cables and they work just as good as a 0 dollar one.

Good cable but not the best picture quality wise
I bought this good cable in September 2009. I bought this cable because of the cheap price and all the good reviews. However, I decided to rate this cable now because I recently bought a Monster MC800HD-1M Advanced High Speed HDTV HDMI Cable so I can do the comparisons.
There is no doubt that this is a good HDMI Cable especially for the price. However, good is good and there is excellent like this Monster MC800HD-1M Advanced High Speed HDTV HDMI I bought. So, if you're on a budget and want 8 out of 10 when it comes to picture quality buy this cable but if you're like me and want the best of the best then go with the Monster cable. I've rated it 10 out of 10.
It's true that the Monster cable is overpriced but it's false to say that they're in the same quality category. Unless, you have tried with your own eyes you can't judge. I did and this cable is good but not excellent. I give it 3 stars now that I experienced another cable.
Seemed good watching it closely now...
This cable seemed just fine and great for the money at first. However, just today I noticed sound cut out on my PS3 while playing a DVD for a bit. I exited the DVD, and back on the Playstation menu I heard sound again. Then I played the DVD again, resuming from the same spot with no sound and sound was working again. I can't confirm that it was absolutely the cable, BUT, I'm keeping an eye on it now. Going for the Amazon cables for this next purchase just to be safe.
Works great!
I bought two of these since I bought a big screen TV that could use HDMI. They are well made and I have no complaints at all.

Good price and image quality, but the cord is made of white and black nylon, i was expecting a black rubber cord

Good product, but too powerful!
I bought these struts because my factory struts were worn out and would no longer hold my rear hatch open. When I installed these, I could barely get my rear hatch closed! They are very strong! My sister is unable to close my rear hatch now. I would like to note that I installed these more than 6 months ago and they have weakened slightly, but they are still a bit too stiff.
Just a sidenote: these struts have the gas cylinder on the opposite end as the factory units. This does not interfere with operation or installation, just slightly changes the appearance.
Overall, I am happy with this item, as it far outperformed my aging, weak factory struts. Despite them being too stiff, I would prefer too stiff over too weak.

This is a sturdy tripod...definitely, no doubt about it. The price of that strength is weight which was commented on by other reviewers. I didn't dock any stars for the weight since it's clearly listed in the item description, but realize that we are not talking about an extra few ounces here. Many other AL tripods on the market are around the 5 lb mark. Digging deeper into the walled gets you into carbon fiber which shaves another 1-2 lbs. The Slik Pro is closer to 11 lbs which equates to an extra 6-8 lbs and a decent workout at the end of the day. So, this is a great setup for portraits, but don't buy it for a hike up the Appalachian trail.
To clarify the misleading photos and description in the Amazon add, the unit I received has foam on the upper section of the legs (nice) and arrived with a canvas bag (nice as well). However, the strap on the bag is too short for long totes since you can't get an arm and head through it, but it does work well for storage. This tripod is plenty tall for me and I'm fairly tall dude at 6'5". I have no issues at all with stability, or height. The quick release is a little bulky and heavy, but it is secure.
Product Description:
SLIK's exclusive A.M.T. super titanium alloy legs make the PRO 700 DX tripod rock steady yet lighter than it looks. The A.M.T. alloy has a 40% greater strength to weight ration than standard aluminum, meaning the legs are lighter weight yet stronger than the standard metal used in most of today's tripods. Capable of handling the weight of large format (4x5) field cameras or heavy, long telephoto lenses, The PRO 700 DX offer professional photographers and advanced amateurs the strength and stability they need while its size, and the use of A.M.T. alloy, make it lighter weight and more portable than THE PROFESSIONAL series. A tripod should be easy to use, so that that you spend more time concentrating on your photography than you do your equipment. The PRO 700 DX makes setting up easy with secure yet fast speed release leg locks, gearless center column, and 3 position adjustable angle leg locks for easy set up on uneven ground or steps. The adjustable angle locks combined with the PRO 700 DX Short Column (optional accessory) allow the tripod to be lowered to just 15 inches for very low angle, or macro photography in the field. The included PRO 700 DX all-metal 3-way pan head has one of the fasted and easiest to use quick release plates in the industry. SLIK made a circular quick release plate that can secure the camera to the tripod pointing in any direction, making attaching your camera (once the SLIK quick release plate is attached) more intuitive than most other heads that have squared off or angled plates.Value, today it's more important then ever. Compare the price and features of the PRO 700 DX to other manufacturers' professional camera supports and you will see that dollar for dollar and feature for feature, this is one of the best values in a professional tripod available.

- Height\ 24 2/5 - 74 4/5"

I purchased this stool to replace a smaller camp stool which had a torn seat. I'm about 220 pounds after lunch and a flimsy stool is no bargain. My old camp stool was much shorter and required more strength than my 64 year old knees can regularly provide. The 22in/55cm height gets me down low enough for most of my macro or low level shooting. Getting up from the 22 inch height is a heck of a lot easier than trying to pop up from shorter stools. The large seat more closely matches my large seat making it a good deal more comfortable than smaller versions. This stool also resists sinking in softer ground with its large feet. The button releases take a bit of getting used to but provide a solid safe lock when clicked into place. The canvas seat cloth seems well made and very sturdy. I doubt that I will need to replace this one unless it is stolen, by my wife. I have tried the shortened setup where you don't extend the legs to get a lower height but the single point of contact with the ground means I am spending my time trying not to fall over and figuring out how I am going to manage to stand up again. Overall a quality product, good design and the 22 in height seems to be just right for someone who is normally 6' 2".

Product Description:
THE STOOL THAT WALKS.
You and your normal chair do not get on. You are continually on the move and it permanently stands still. Think for a minute; you like to play golf, hunt, fish and you would also like to sit down for a while. You go to concerts, wait in ticket queues, go for a long walk, go camping and would also like to sit down for a while. You travel, or feel the effects of an injury that hasn't healed, you carry out service work at other workplaces and would like to sit down for a while. There are thousands of reasons for owning a stool that is portable.
If you often work squatting, then the risk is great that in time you will suffer from backache, sore knees and joint problems, or you may already be suffering from these problems. Well, now there is a stool that can take care of the problem, Walkstool, small and light when you carry it but steady and comfortable when you sit on it. When working at low heights, sit on the Walkstool without extending the telescopic legs!
Features:
- Light weight - aluminum construction.
- Portable - telescopic with a carrying bag
- Durable - High quality and load capacity
- Comfortable - ergonomic and big seat.
- Unique - the only 3-legged telescopic stool in the world

I was looking for something that I could take to GA concerts and festivals. This chair fits the bill, perfectly. It's extremely light (though the construction is quite solid), easy to carry, and operate. You can deploy it (to full length) in literally 5 seconds. Putting it back takes marginally more effort; you have to push the leg lock buttons firmly to slide the legs back in (so maybe 10 seconds). The best part is that it actually is pretty comfortable (you can spend quite a bit of time in it without fatigue). I'm so taking it with me when stuck waiting in line for concert tickets, also.
Love It!
I work on control systems for modern drilling rigs, all over the world. This means that I spend a lot of time with my laptop plugged into a PLC, inside power control rooms. I have gone through about a dozen of the cheap steel tripod stools over the past two years. Every trip I'd bring a new one, and it would be nearly worn out by the time the job was finished, so I always gave those away.
I found this on Amazon and decided that I wanted one. It is VERY sturdy and comfortable for me. I only wish I'd gotten the 18" version instead. I will order that one next time I go home. I see no problem with having two of these fantastic Walkstools.
The Swedes really did themselves proud with this item!
Requires care to keep from falling over
The Walkstool Comfort is light weight and very portable. However, it is not stable when set up and uncomfortable for men.
