Brand and Speed of Mem Card for Canon 30D

[gibz]

What CF card is a perfect match for 30D with it's 5fps?

I have tried sandisk ultraII (66X) before for my S2, it was dependable, but I doubt that it will do the same for 30D.

Lexar (80X) isnt too dependable referring to the mates here.

While Sandisk Extreme III is just too expensive!

I have got a good price of Apacer (100X) CF, I am thinking of buying it, very soon..... What do you think? Is it worth it? 100X is a good speed, but I am abit scared that it wont be dependable! BTW Apacer is a taiwan brand, it produces mem for computers etc.

Why not stick with the Sandisk? I use the UltraII with my 20D & haven't had any problems at all.

sandisk is good enough... i have 30D and with the free sandisk from canon, never had a problem with 5fps shots, unless you are really holding the shutter button for like a minute.... :)

Another vote for the Ultra II.

I have two Sandisk Ultra IIs that I use with both my 20D and 30D.

I wouldn't trade them for anything.
