It works with typeII flash [Posted on 2008-03-08] I purchased for future flexibility. Currently only transporting TypeII CF and it works perfectly so far. One thing I didn't realize was it had an, guessing?, aluminum/tin, shell on the outside. I wanted a purely plastic transport so it wouldn't set off metal detectors at the airport. Haven't gone through a detector with it yet but pretty sure it will set one off or delay my bag for inspection. If so maybe I'll see about removing the outer trim, if possible.
Good enough [Posted on 2008-04-10] The case looks cool to look at. It easily holds my memory cards - i definetly would recommend this if ur looking for a strong sturdy case.
Beware! [Posted on 2008-09-08] This case WILL NOT properly hold Sony Memory Pro Duo cards. The will flop around loose in the case, so it is as bad as not even having a case. I bought it to hold the Pro Duo memory cards, so it it worthless to me. It might hold other memory cards, but I would make sure before I buy it.
Pretty case, too bad it doesn't work [Posted on 2008-10-14] Despite some of the warnings on here I decided to give this case a try as it seemed to be perfect for carrying my disks in my backpack. I was disappointed. Knowing that some people had problems I took extra care to push my SD cards down into the proper locations inside the case. I carried the case in my hand from my kitchen to my office and guess what happened? Yup. The SD cards were rolling around, they broke free without any badgering. So mine didn't work. If they made the rubber soft then it would hold, but they didn't. Too bad.
I suggest getting a small camera case, they make some "harder"-shell full-zipper ones pretty cheap - $5. Keep your little plastic cases inside that.
Diminished Quality Control [Posted on 2008-11-13] I'm a professional photographer and have used 4 of these cases holding 4 & 8GB CF cards for almost two years and was quite satisfied. The only dissatisfaction was when I turned over my used cards as a means of quickly identifying filled cards the closure was not secure. Overall I liked the look since it looks like my Halliburton briefcase.
However, the last three I purchased were all defective. I suspect the quality control in the country of manufacture has diminished. I returned one to my local retailer and sold my last two at a substantial discount since my return postage and time would make it a wash. The two cases purchased through Amazon/Adorama had the following defects:
1) The outer metal cover fell off because the glue strip was old and did not stick very well.
2) There was a small dimple in the metal outer cover and was "sprung" making closure difficult.
The hard plastic clamshell packaging on both were in great shape so I'm assuming that they were packed this way in China.
I would no longer recommend this product. My e-mail to Digital Foci went unanswered.
