Question: Is Lexar platinum II compatible with Canon rebel xti!?

I purchased a Lexar CF card 2 GB 80x speed, platinum II for my canon rebel xti!. Upon arriving home, it does not seem to fit!. It goes in almost all the way, until the end im afraid to push hard because i don't want to damage the camera!. does anyone know if this memory card is compatible- ARGH! im getting pissed off at this memory card crap!.

Your camera takes all types of CF cards, so you should be ok!. CF does need to be pushed in a bit at the end!. That is when the pins inside the camera go into the respective holes on a card!. You don't have to push it hard, just a little though!. If it doesn't go in, inspect your card slot with a flashlight for any signs of bent and/or misaligned pins!.

By the way, Lexar is one of the best cards you can buy for your camera!. They have a reputation of a very good durable media and excellent customer service! Should you ever accidentally lose erase your pictures or if your card fails they will take your card and try to recover anything possible!. And then if card failed they'll give you a new one!

It only goes in ONE way!. Be sure it's not backward!. Your does not seem to be in backward -- because it would not go in at all!.

You don't have to push that hard if you were inserting it correctly though!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
