8GB sony memory stick March 5, 2010 Sherrie A lot more storage room for pictures from my megazoom camera, definitely worth the money.
Genuine! March 4, 2010 Brandon Robinson (Colorado USA) I was leery of purchasing this after purchasing the "supposedly" same product off of ebay which turned out to be counterfeit. After running a free-ware utility against the fake, it determined it was only 64MB instead of 16GB. I wrote to Amazon before purchasing this, and they wrote back assuring me it was authentic from Sony. As soon as it arrived, I placed it in my Sony Handycam HDR-100 and it works perfectly!!! I plan on getting more of them.
8 GB Sony Memory Stick Pro Duo- An adapter would have been nice... February 25, 2010 Jane Schacher (The Hamptons, Long Island NY)
Amazon, PLEASE put in the item description it DOESN'T include the adapter!
I was really disappointed this didn't come with an adapter. Like a dummy I went ahead and opened it thinking it was inside the packaging but guess what, not there. I don't know if I can return it since it is opened but will sure look into it, I can get one for about the same price WITH the adapter at another store. I like shopping with Amazon so I chose them first, but I guess I should bought from a B/M store to actually see the product first (and check with a salesperson!) I am really happy with my Sony cybershot camera and was glad to see a bigger memory capability but w/o the adapter it is pretty much useless for me.
Sony should get with the program and adopt the SD cards and never mind with the stick February 21, 2010 Jose J. Perez Sony should get with the program and adopt the SD cards and never mind with the stick.
over price and flimsy construction never mind the poor capacity of memory
The bottom line is that Sony memory cards suck royally in capacity,speed,price and quality.
Best Price for the Sony Pro Duo is Found with Amazon Sellers February 21, 2010 Delta Lady (New England, USA) We purchased this from Amazon Seller ABX ProTECH as it was being sent to our son and daughter-in-law on the East Coast (and ABX ProTECH is located in New York). As we wanted First Class shipping, we found this Seller to be closer and indeed, the product arrived only three days after we ordered it.
We had purchased a Sony CyberShot camera on Amazon for them for their anniversary and they had talked us out of getting the Memory Card/Stick as they were sure they could find one locally. However after being sold two incorrect ones by their local Best Buy, on the third trip they were further frustrated to find that Best Buy wanted TWICE as much for these as Amazon. As I had offered to get them one to begin with, I immediately ordered it from ABX ProTECH on Amazon and they had it in an amazing three days, in time for their snowy southern weekend.
Sony is like Dell, they design products so you must use brand-specific accessories, etc., with them for optimum results. My son did not want me to down-rate the camera (as others have) due to this as he stated it is just "good old capitalism." While it can be a pain at times, and also more expensive at times, we have used Sony cameras and camera products for years, and have had excellent results.
However if you need one of these to arrive in a reasonable amount of time, I advise shopping around the different Amazon Sellers who carry these and find one who is closer to you to overcome shipping time. Many of them are within a few cents of each other in price (when you figure in the differing shipping costs) and the ours arrived at our son's home much faster than it would have if we would have purchased from a Seller on the West Coast.
All in all, our son and daughet-in-law are happy with it, so we are happy with our purchase. We are also MORE THAN DELIGHTED with the prices for these found with Amazon Sellers!
