2-pack Sony Class 10 (Up to 94MB/s Read/45MB/s Write) SDHC Memory Cards: 32GB $35, 16GB $24 + Free Shipping

Darn it, I bought a Sandisk 45MB/s 16GB for $20 recently...

bought, cant wait for faster read/write speeds

Quote from AkumaX : Which $9 card? Even on USB 2.0, its one of the fastest USB 2.0 cards* *performance may vary, as evidenced by that Amazon review. at least in my case, I was easily able to get 18-19MB/s in my USB 2.0 card reader (for both the 94MB/s card and 40MB/s card)

uhm i think it was the polaroid one. I know its not the greatest thing but its a pny. I still dont have a usb3 card reader . but using this inside the camera is more important, but after much reading this deal and the run of the mill class 10 does the same crap inside the camera. but the benefit if you do get this.. Once paired with a usb3 reader AkumaX certified. speeds will increase. I really wish cameras took advantage of the newer memory and speed increase.

Darn, the 32GB one is OOS, will have to make do with 16GB.

32gb DEAD

These are comparable to the SanDisk Extreme Pros, right?

Quote from goodday : $34.95 with free shipping. Features: 32gb data storage capacity class 10 speed max. Read speed: 94mb/s max. Write speed: 45mb/s ultra high speed class 1 http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/pro..._32gb.html

discontinued....

what's the reviews on these cards? any corrupt images/video?

aw bummer, 32gb order cancelled. I guess the 16gb pack will do

order cancelled

Quote from AkumaX : Thanks for your input! This is good so that other members can see actual performance rather than what the rated speeds are (even though they're significantly slower than what I've personally gotten). Do you have a USB 3.0 card reader AND USB 3.0 port? A USB 3.0 hub in a USB 2.0 port is going to perform in USB 2.0 mode anyway.

Quote from gqvisionz : 'you also have to make sure your usb 3.0 reader/hub for your laptop usb 3.0 port supports uhs-i spec.. like this one http://www.amazon.com/Support-Usp...B0062EUE54

I should of clarified, yes I used a cheap USB 2 card reader/adapter in both hubs. And my new 3.0 hub is like your Amazon link but it's a powered unit (that's a decent price btw). I have a newer Lenovo with USB 3 but apparently the card slot isn't up to snufff. I don't have any testing tools, just first hand experience with common procedures. Still this is a good deal, that's a lot of porn and probably more reliable then the 32GB Sandisk

Haha! But anyway, USB 3.0 ports are useless unless you have a USB 3.0 card reader.
USB 3.0 ports will always go into USB 2.0 backwards compatibility mode.

However, a USB 3.0 reader in a USB 2.0 port will actually have a performance increase, because there is a natural bottleneck of around 20MB/s read and write for USB 2.0 card readers.

So it looks like this (for example, this Sony 94MB/s UHS-I in my tests):

USB 2.0 Reader + USB 2.0 Port = 20MB read / 20MB write
USB 2.0 Reader + USB 3.0 Port = 20MB read / 20MB write
USB 3.0 Reader + USB 2.0 Port = 36MB read / 31MB write
USB 3.0 Reader + USB 3.0 Port = 80MB read / 45MB write

Those are my results. YMMV. Anyone else who happen to have this card (or any fast card like the SanDisk Extreme 45MB/s or even the other Sony 40MB/s UHS), your input is valuable! I can't be the only one!

Quote from ifi : order cancelled !!! (32GB)

When did you guys order? Any reason for cancellation?
Mine still shows order information sent to warehouse, pending...

Quote from AkumaX : Supporting UHS-I is one thing, but supporting UHS-I Speed Class 1 speeds is another thing. UHS-I has been supported since the T2i Basically along w/ SD Spec 3.0, the support for larger cards > 32GB and UHS-I bus coincided with each other. However, very few UHS-I Host devices support SD Spec 3.01 (UHS-I Speed Class 1). Only camera that I could think that does is the D800 - you could get ~35-40MB/s write speed with these cards. However, even if it doesn't support UHS-I Speed Class 1, it will default back down to SD Spec 2.0 speeds (the Class specification, 2/4/6/10). You should still get around 18-22MB/s write speed from write buffer camera to card in these DSLRs. Even the Canon 5D Mark III "only" gets these speeds. Hope that helps?

From the article I linked to, it's a bit more detailed than just saying it supports UHS-1:
"I was unable to find reliable information regarding what protocols and bus speeds the T3i supports so I called Canon. I was told that the camera supports the UHS-1 protocol at the 100mhz bus speed and 50MB/s write throughput."
