High Speed SD Cards - which is better
Does anyone have benchmarks regarding the high speed SD cards. I read a
couple in the dpreview, but can't decide whether to get the Sandisk Ultra II (60x) 2 gb for $96 or the Rocketfish 166x 2 gb for $70. It appears that even though some brands claim a higher speed, it is not necessarily up to spec. and in some cases the Sandisk outperformed even the higher speed cards. |

I got a Transcend 2gb card for $40 a couple months ago and they're less now. I think mine was 60x but this one is $37.99 and 150x: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820163158 |

Wow, that's a good deal. Too bad I don't live in the US.

It is not quite as good a deal but Amazon UK is advertising this: 2GB SD memory by Transcend for £29 (= $54) http://tinyurl.com/jkhx3 The speed is a very decent 150x. |

High Speed SD Cards - which is better
Hi everybody,
I guess I should tell everyone I'm in Canada! and this is the best deal I could find. So does anyone have experience with Rocketfish? I can't find any reviews on this card and I'm not sure of it's reliability. BTW thank Paul for your suggestion about newegg.com. I tried to get it online but they only ship to the US.
