Thats all well and good, but when your writing @ 30mb/s.. thats 75mb avg x 17 files / 30mb/s = 42secs.. ouch

Just got 2 x 32gb Lexar 400x CF (Sandisk of similar price) for $138 from B&H (the pair).

Also took advantage of that deal oxxcelarated that was way too good. I got a pair when someone didnt end up paying for theirs.. probably happy now.

Tho honestly outside of shooting weddings/motorsport/really fast stuff its kinda overkill lol.

Cheers - eGlobal is a good price but the voucher cannot be applied to just the flash alone as it is < $500 - so you will need to add a small item to get the $50 paypal off

I took a punt &went with eGlobal and even though they were having issues with their $50 discount coupon on check-out they did honour it so the 600EX-RT ended being $490 shipped express with a lenspen.
