7dayshop cheap SD cards, anyone tried them? (1 Viewer)

Well-known member
I'm about to buy a nikon D50 and I see 7dayshop.com are selling their own brand Sd cards for silly money, for example 1GB £13.99 = P+P. Has anyone out there tried one in a Nikon D50, or should I fork out for a sandisk? I read numerous reviews on their website praising this bargain SD card, but none of the reviewers had used it in a Nikon D50?

Thanks

Not tried the SD card but I am using one of their cheap CF cards - 1GB, £15.79 excellent value and I have had no trouble at all.
 
Bought a couple of their cheap 512 cards earlier in year and so did friends on our recomendation.

None of us has had any problems, so a big thumbs up.

SD own brand

... I've got a 7 Day Shop '1gig own brand' in my D50 and it works very well - no problems....

I've also just received a 2gig card from an eBay purchase (posted from China) and that also works as required...

...go for it.....

I have not had any recently but bought quite a few 64mb cards for the old Coolpix and all worked well apart from Viking cards of which 3 different ones corrupted on me one within 4 days----they did refund the price for which they were on sale at the time I returned them but then it was half what I paid but of course you could buy new for that price though I upgraded to Sandisk to save the worry having lost a lot of Bottle-nosed Dolphins!
 
thanks for your helpful advice, I'm completely new to digital photography, so I really appreciate your suggestions and tips.
