Wondering what cards people think are the best (fastest) for action shots? I use Sandisk extreme 111 30mb/s 4GB. They seem to do the job good enough. They hold around 400ish shots from memory, in jpeg fine L (D300)...But for some reason, I noticed today, all cards say 515 shots on my LCD with no changes to my set up!!! Weird!

Cheers
Scott

    Recently purchased a 16GB Extreme IV from b&h photo.com. I'm lovin' it. It's noticably faster than the III's I have, and shooting RAW at 15.1mp, I can fit about 700+ shots on it.
    Let's face it; more gear than sense.

    Canon 7D... Canon 70-200/2.8L IS... Canon 28-70/2.8L... Canon 135/f2L... Canon 85/1.8... Canon 50/1.4... Canon 28/1.8

    Also using the Sandisk Extreme IV 16GB CF cards and my SDHC cards are Sandisk Extreme III 30MB/s cards. I have looked at the new 60MB/s and 90MB/s cards, but don't think my camera can write that fast (?) so I just stick to my current cards.
