Revainrating 5 out of 5

Please read if you are trying/planning to use the camera with an SD card adapter.

SanDisk Class 4 Micro SDHC. I have two of these. Both have 14.83 GB of storage (normal) after formatting. OVERVIEW OF USE IN TABLET. One I use in the original 7 inch Galaxy Tab which was my primary tablet before upgrading to the Galaxy Tab 2 and is now the tablet my kids play on. Games, general lounge entertainment/driving and home activities (study, videos, educational apps, gaming apps, etc.). There are no problems with this card. REVIEW OF USE IN CAMERA WITH SD ADAPTER - another one I'm using in a micro SD to SD adapter in my Fuji 4400 (28x optical zoom, video capability, 9x digital zoom, flash, etc). Great camera but doesn't support Micro SD card. The reason I want to use it was because I have a nice professional photo editing app on my devices that is great for adding borders, cropping, adding stickers/text, lighting, etc. Also, I can use devices to post pictures on the go. I have a class 4 32GB SD card that I use in my camera but for obvious reasons I can't insert it into any of my devices to use the photo editing app. So using a micro SD in a micro SD to SD adapter was a great way to edit and share photos on the go. The only problem was that the camera was initially unable to format or use the card. Maybe it's because it's a micro SD or the adapter itself (I use the Kingsford adapter that comes with another 16GB micro SD card that I bought for one of our bought phones). I was able to put a micro SD card in my Galaxy Tab 2, format it there, then put it back into the adapter and put it back into the camera. After that, he had no problems with usage or formatting. The trick of formatting for use in an SD card camera is the main reason I wrote this review in case others are trying to do the same. I know I was just lucky that it even occurred to me to format it on a device other than the actual camera, so I wanted to mention that formatting it elsewhere would work. There's a chance this won't work for every camera formatted on every other device, but it's definitely worth a try if that's what you're looking for. I love that I can pull it out of my camera and instantly access photos on my phone or tablet =)
