From Amazon

Big savings on a big CF card. Amazon is selling the Lexar Professional 64gb 400x Compact Flash card for $84.99. These deals will probably only be for today.

how big of a difference is the 1000x compared to this one? i never used a CF card before i just have a 128gb lexar sd card,

I'll just chime in quickly on this one....

I've never had good luck with the 400x series from Lexar. I love all the Lexar Pro cards, and use them all the time. I've NEVER had a problem with ANY of their cards except for the 400x cards (in two separate 1Ds III, a 5D3). I've had three fail me. They corrupted files even after writing to the card. Long story short....get the 300x (cheaper and not much slower) or the 600x.

Great prices for these, the 128gb card after tax is currently $200 or so on Amazon.com, in the uk on Amazon that card will cost the equivalent of $360.

I can barelly fill my 32GB Transcend 400x and find the buffering a bit annoying when shooting continuous on my 1D4 and 7D. I would imagine a similar instance with the Lexar 400x cards as well.

Has anyone else had any problems with their 400 series cf cards??

Having problems with yours?

Wish the prices of these two UDMA 7 cards remained the same. 64GB's below $100 and 128GB's below $237 today.

I would've gone with two 128GB Lexar 400x UDMA 7 cards at below $170/card.

With a 128GB UDMA7 card you can have these many RAWs & L JPEGs. These figures were based on what was written in each body's manual.

L JPEGs
1D X & C - 19,200
1D4 - 22,144
5D3 - 16,160
5D2 - 19,840
7D - 18,976

RAW
1D X & C - 4,480
1D4 - 5,600
5D3 - 4,160
5D2 - 4,608
7D - 4,960

Divide the figures by half if you decide on the 64GB UDMA7 card.

Note that 400x UDMA7 cards are not fast enough for the 1D C 4K recording. For that purpose you need a UDMA7 card that can write at 100MB/s or better like any 1000x UDMA 7 card or Sandisk's 100MB/s UDMA7 card.
