Hey

Just bought a 5D and pumped to start putting it to work.
I bought it with a 16gb SanDisk 60mb/s Extreme memory card

I want to buy a few more memory cards, probably going to buy a few 32gb versions of this model except I see that there is a extreme pro memory card available at 90mb/s

Is it worth it for the extra price? so far the footage I took hasn't seemed to drop any frames or anything. I'm still new so I wanted to hear some advice if its worth it to purchase the more expensive cards

Thanks!
 
When I started out, I just took Phillip Blooms advice and went with the Transcend 133x cards for my 5D. His argument is that you're paying for speed you don't need with cards faster than 133x. My firsthand experience is that the 133x cards work fine - I've never had a problem with one.
 
Hi,

The point of 90mb/s is in transferring to your laptop. This speed can only be realized with an expresscard slot.
