naah, they start at EUR 3.99
From my 0.99, that's a huge percentage increase! Still, I hear what you say
and it doesn't look so bad at that level.
Beware, some prices will go up April 1st the company just told me...

I don't know about largest capacity at best price - I wonder if those are
the best criteria for a memory card. I use Sandisk Extreme III cards, the
largest available for whatever camera I'm using. The lowest

Hi Paul,
Sandisk Extreme III have proven the most reliable in my heavy use. I
have several in 8 gig size. The only Sandisk card failure I
experienced was due to physical damage. I've tried Transcend cards as
well. They're top of the line card isn't as fast as the Extreme III,
and I bought

good. in that case, I'll go on: 3rd in the list is the GL826 -
measurebators rate it higher for SDHC and lower for CF but digisol
uses it in less products so there may be a reason... I played safe and
got the UT335

Then that's it. The consensus is the Sandisk and I will order a couple later
tonight.
just make sure you buy them from a reputable source rather than the
cheapest - according to sandisk germany (i asked) approx 90% of

It's price at the time was about USD 75. Serves me loyally ever since.

Hi Boris,
I buy SanDisk cards, the fastest variety and from the merchant that I

sure won't try to push me a fake. Since this is rather expensive, I
usually buy not the largest capacity card, but one or two steps lower.
Say, approximately a year ago I bought 8 GB Ultra III card for my K-7.

Could be. But anyway, I am in touch with them and they do all kinds of
