Making average of slightly different opinions, I believe cards faster than 60-66x are just more expensive, while they add nothing to camera write/read speed. However, they will be faster while downloading via USB2.0 reader.
This doesn't interest me enough, hence I stick to 60-66x.

ok, then again, very intersting talk, but my question
remians:
it's important the speed of the card? extra fast cards
are worth it?

TIFF straight out of the *istD are 8 bit.

The problem is that colorspace in a PEF is denoted
by file name conventions not
embedded, so the recipient has to know that an
underscore preceding the name
indicated that the assumed colorspace is AdobeRGB
and assign it manually, a
crap system really.

In any case if misinterpreted it would just make the
image appear a bit drab
not totally screw it up. The in camera TIFF files
are also uncompressed and
hence should be easily read by any reasonably
capable software, so I really
don't know what the problem could be.
