I found virtually no difference between a standard Sandisk 1Gb card and a 40X
Lexar 1Gb card with WA when used in the *istD. The Lexar is faster in a PC with
card reader though.
Personally I would stick to Sandisk, although I have a couple of no name 512Mb
cards that I had before the *istD that have been fine. The Lexar seems a bit
flaky though.

Subject: D and Write Acceleration CF cards
I may have a used D coming soon. I would need to know what are the
best options for digital film media. (I have not followed any
discussion about the D as it was not in my plans to get one soon!)
Is a CF card with Write Acceleration a good feature?
Is any card over 40X an overkill?
Should I buy only reknown Lexar or Sandisk cards?
In the absence of a card reader for the moment, how long takes
downloading a complete 1GB card from the camera to a computer with
USB 1?
Anything else I should know for the moment? Or is there a page or a
post that tells all that a D user has to know (green button, etc.)?
Thanks,
Andre
