An entry-level DSLR camera equipped with a 133x CF card can respond more quickly during fast-action burst mode shooting, and store large images in RAW format. Excellent compatibility Transcend’s CompactFlash 133 cards are developed to work across a wide range of CompactFlash compatible devices, including entry-level DSLRs, hybrid cameras and Full HD camcorders. When paired with a high-end card reader such as Transcend's USB 3.1 Gen 1 RDF8, the CompactFlash 133 cards can achieve optimum read/write speed and provide seamless data transfer. RecoveRx software Transcend offers exclusive RecoveRx software, a free data recovery utility that allows you to search deep within a storage device for traces of erased files including digital photos, documents, music and videos. Review: Cheap but Mighty - I bought this card for my Canon EOS 400D, and I was pleased to see when I turned the camera on that it cheerfully displayed "1587" to show me how many raw shots could be recorded before I'd have to change cards. Woohoo! Having bought a 2Gb SanDisk Extreme IV with the camera, I didn't want to spend a fortune on spare cards so I did some research on the web to find out exactly how fast a card needs to be before the write speed of the camera falls short of the card and you are paying for "unused extra speed". I have found it difficult to find accurate sources on the web but it seems that a 133x card should be more than adequate for storing data as fast as an EOS 400D can supply it. Which of course means a less congested buffer and more shots in a row in burst mode! I have done some simple tests with this Transcend card compared to my Extreme IV, and superficially at least there is no appreciable difference in performance. I have read that the larger memory address space of high capacity cards can slow down data writing slightly as compared to smaller cards, so I will not be going higher than 16Gb. I will be buying a few more of these babies before I go off around the planet! ** Update follows (26 Mar 09) ** Since writing this review I have upgraded to the delicious Canon EOS 40D (see my review on the kit version for the low-down). The performance of the Canon EOS 40D with the Transcend 133x 16Gb card is noticeably poor compared to both the 2Gb and 4Gb versions of the SanDisk Extreme IV range. Since I do a lot of high speed shooting, I therefore sold my Transcend card with my Canon EOS 400D. So, if you are a 400D/Rebel user, this card will do fine speed-wise and it is a LOT of storage at a low price. However if you are a Canon 40D user, and you want the full shooting speed, you will probably want a faster card. I have recent reviews on the 2Gb and 4Gb SanDisk Extreme IV cards which will help you decide how fast your cards need to be. Review: Excellent so far - used as a replacement 1.8" HDD - Bought this to use as a replacement hard disk in a sixth gen iPod Classic (120GB). It had been dropped one too may times, and the existing drive was clicking and freezing badly, but replacement mechanical drives are still pretty expensive. I had bought a cheap ZIF to CF adaptor from Ebay, along with the necessary tools to split the iPod apart (about £5 all in). Got this CF card as it offered a good size for the price, and the lower speed of this card was not an issue for music playback as the bitrate is only 320kbps. The card has been great - worked straight away after a reformat with iTunes, showing 30GB of space. Upload of music was fast, and performance in use has been excellent, with near-instant restart from pause, quick track selection etc. The iPod is also marginally lighter, and the battery life is good. Recommended if you want to convert your classic to SSD storage. ## Features - THE PERFECT BALANCE FOR OLDER TECH: Offering 4GB of storage, this CF card is the ideal "sweet spot" for vintage digital cameras and legacy industrial devices that support FAT32 but may struggle with 8GB or higher capacities. It provides a safe, reliable storage upgrade without compatibility issues. - IMPRESSIVE 133X PERFORMANCE: Experience smooth data transfers with read speeds of up to 50 MB/s and write speeds of up to 20 MB/s. The 133x transfer rate and Ultra DMA transfer mode 4 support reduce lag time, ensuring consistent performance for standard shooting or machine operations. - PREMIUM MLC NAND FLASH: Built with high-quality MLC NAND Flash chips to deliver exceptional durability and long-lasting reliability. Rated for up to 10,000 insertion and removal cycles, making it a robust storage solution for both frequent daily photography and industrial use. - ADVANCED DATA PROTECTION: Equipped with built-in Error Correcting Code (ECC) technology to automatically detect and correct transfer errors. This ensures your essential files, machine codes, and images remain safe and securely stored at all times. - RECOVERX SOFTWARE & 5-YEAR WARRANTY: Includes free access to Transcend's exclusive RecoveRx data recovery software, allowing you to easily retrieve accidentally deleted photos and files. Backed by a Five-Year Limited Warranty for complete peace of mind. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000VY7HYM | | Best Sellers Rank | 21,529 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 22 in CompactFlash Cards | | Box Contents | Contents: 1 item | | Brand | Transcend | | Brand Name | Transcend | | Colour | black | | Compatible Devices | personal computer camera | | Compatible devices | personal computer camera | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 6,904 Reviews | | Flash Memory Type | CompactFlash | | Flash memory type | CompactFlash | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00760557810308 | | Hardware Connectivity | CompactFlash | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 36D x 43W x 3H millimetres | | Item Dimensions L x W | 43L x 43W millimetres | | Item Part Number | TS4GCF133 | | Item Type Name | Transcend Standard 133x CF card 4GB | | Item Weight | 0.4 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Transcend | | Manufacturer Part Number | TS4GCF133 | | Media Speed | 20 MB per second | | Memory Storage Capacity | 4 GB | | Memory storage capacity | 4 GB | | Model Name | TS4GCF133 | | Model Number | TS4GCF133 | | Model name | TS4GCF133 | | Product Features | Operating temperature range:-25 - 85 °C | | Product Warranty | 5-Year Limited Warranty | | Read Speed | 50 Megabytes Per Second | | Secure Digital Association Speed Class | Class 10 | | UPC | 760557810308 | | Warranty Type | Five-year Limited Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Transcend - **Compatible devices:** personal computer camera - **Flash memory type:** CompactFlash - **Memory storage capacity:** 4 GB - **Model name:** TS4GCF133 ## Images ![4GB CompactFlash 133 Memory Card (CF Card) Up to 50/20 MB/s, Supports Ultra DMA transfer mode 4 with MLC NAND Flash for entry-level DSLRs TS4GCF133 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Z-MJIxZzL.jpg) ![4GB CompactFlash 133 Memory Card (CF Card) Up to 50/20 MB/s, Supports Ultra DMA transfer mode 4 with MLC NAND Flash for entry-level DSLRs TS4GCF133 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61a7sVm4OvL.jpg) ![4GB CompactFlash 133 Memory Card (CF Card) Up to 50/20 MB/s, Supports Ultra DMA transfer mode 4 with MLC NAND Flash for entry-level DSLRs TS4GCF133 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61klJXsSYhL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cheap but Mighty *by B***G on 31 October 2008* I bought this card for my Canon EOS 400D, and I was pleased to see when I turned the camera on that it cheerfully displayed "1587" to show me how many raw shots could be recorded before I'd have to change cards.

The problem is the card it comes with is just 8gb, which limits the compact flash recording time to 32mins. So I've been looking for something bigger and after hearing good things about this card on the broadcast forums I opted for the 32gb Transend and I haven't been disappointed. Now with a single 32gb card I can get 142 minutes of footage and with two cards I can cover most jobs. The DVraw files have worked faultlessly and the best thing is they load onto my Mac faster than real time. Great price, great product, I can't recommend it enough. ## Frequently Bought Together - Transcend 4 GB 133X CompactFlash Memory Card TS4GCF133 - Transcend PCMCIA Ata Adapter for Cf 2 Card - Memory Card Reader, BENFEI 4in1 USB 3.0 and USB-C to SD Micro SD MS CF Card Reader Adapter, 4 Cards Simultaneously Read and Write, Compatible with iPhone 15 Series, MacBook Pro/Air 2023, and More --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/48697516-4gb-compactflash-133-memory-card-cf-card-up-to-50](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/48697516-4gb-compactflash-133-memory-card-cf-card-up-to-50) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-06-17*
