dang that's cheap- but i picked up 2 8's for slightly more during boxing day :P

out of curiosity what camera do you use NVM? I barely noticed any lag on my 50D and 233x Lexar, and now that I have 400x I thought I was set for life :P

1D Mark II N . the "slow" i notice most is Lightroom reading my card reader though, not the camera saving to the media.

Upgrade your card reader? I got the Lexar UDMA CF/SD card reader and it made a HUGE difference in transfering files compared to my old one.

I'm just using the 300X cards and they're way more than I need.

yeah dude i have the same reader. on my 233x i get about 20-30MB/s, compared to the 8 I was getting with my other USB 2.0 reader. It definitely is a good investment at 30USD.

I'd be weary of those internal readers too. I've offloaded RAWs on an internal reader on an Acer, and it was just as slow as my cheaper reader.

If speed was a priority you can always get a FW400/800 reader
