@ Adorama. Not the professional series card from Lexar but a good price nonetheless for alot of storage

Actually, I thought so too but after looking into it some more, it looks like it takes SD cards.

From what I can find, it's a class 2 card which seems to equate to 2MB/s write speeds so I don't know if it will keep up all that well if you're looking for a card to do alot of bursts with.

Like a few others have said, this isn't a speed demon at all but it would be suited for single shots/short bursts or cameras that also record video.

do you guru's have any recommendations on a card for Burst?

I shoot a lot of snowboarding, racing, wakeboarding where I try to catch the moment so I take shoots of the whole jump ( snow and wake boarding ) and whole turn of one car for racing....

thanks

I use the Sandisk Extreme III SD cards in my 1Ds, always writes off quick for me.

$20 mail-in rebate right now as well;

Looks like the Sandisk (but slower Sandisk) version is also on sale for $17.40;
