I was reading about compact flash the other day. Of all the current manufacturers the Sandisk Ultra 2 card beat all others in speed by a long margin. Here is where Im thinking about getting a 1mb card. http://www.mydigitaldiscount.com/s.nl/c.ACCT139057/sc.2/category.88/it.A/id.192/.f Does anyone (like Thomas) have a better place to buy? Thanks.

AMazon has it for $204.74. Plus it is not backordered and from a reputable company. Not that that site necessarily isn't but you never know with some electronics websites. I have to admit I'm surprised that SanDisk was well rated. They seem to have a rather poor reputation. I've always been happy with Lexar myself.

People get good results from SanDisk and other cheaper memory CF cards, yes. However every one of them I have heard of cases where there is a problem for someone. Lexar I've never heard this from...and I'm one of them as well: Lexar are excellent and very fast CF cards for my money. But that's great if it did rate that well. I'll stick with what works for me however....
