SanDisk 32GB cards — liking them

I discussed the SanDisk 32GB cards with rebate in my May 26 blog— a very good deal given the combination of capacity, performance and price.

I ordered two of them and I’ve been using them since then in my Nikon D3x and Canon 5D Mark II; they’ve been working flawlessly. I like knowing that I can shoot for a long time without having to worry about them filling up, but I also really like the download speed in my Firewire 800 card reader of about 54MB/sec, which makes even a multi-gigabyte download go plenty fast for me, and I think that instant gratification takes too long.
