Sandisk Extreme III (30mb/ps) - Yes?

[Matthew Bennett]

Is everyone using the sandisk 30mb/ps cards??

Just ordered from B&H, also got a 4GB version of the above

 

[Andrew Brinkhaus]

Yeah, I have an 8G Sandisk Extreme III 20+ mb/s. Pretty awesome when transferring a full cards worth of photos!

 

[Matthew Bennett]

Are they are different size or are they the same as most other CF cards, just wondering 'cause I want to know if I have to buy a new card reader or not,
Sorry, Andrew, do you own a d90 currently as well?

Just asking 'cause the guy at B+H told me the Extreme III with the 30mb/ps rate was the only card capable of lengthy 720p captures on the d90, and then of course I was wondering if he was just 'upselling' or not.

Actually, so ya know the d90 Takes SDHC. I'm usin' a pair'a mismatched 4gbs. One of which is a SanDisk Ultra II

 

[Andrew Brinkhaus]

Right, the 8GB Extreme III I own is an SDHC card, and I am a soon to be owner of a D90, should arrive Tuesday.

 

[Matthew Bennett]

Kholi, can you read the SDHC cards in a CF card reader?, I have a sandisk 16 in 1 reader. Not much to buy a new one, but It'd be nice to avoid it.

Are you mounting the camera as a disk in OSX, using the Nikon software, etc, how are you transferring clips+photos??

Actually, don't respond to me, keep writing in the 'master knowledge thread' I'm dying to know what comes next!!
