• UPDATE



    The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being.

    I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure.

I'm gonna be shooting some fast fighter jets with the 7D,
what would be a very fast CF Card in the $100~$150 range?

Both of these are 600x
Transcend 16GB 600x $79.95/-
SanDisk 16GB 600x $176.95/-
while i respect SanDisk's reputation in the market but such a stark difference?

Your replies are most appreciated - Vishal


These cards are gross overkill, mostly out there for people with too much money.

The main advantage to a fast card is downloading with a UDMA firewire 800 reader. You will not get that advantage with a ordinary card reader, so unless you plan to equip your computer with firewire 800 and buy a reader, don't waste your money, buy a much lower priced and slower reader. 30 mb/s is more than fast enough.
