The Extreme 3 cards take data noticably faster than the Ultra 2, so I presume the camera is writing faster than 10mb/second, which is the speed listed on the Ultra 2 packaging. Extreme 3 cards read/write twice as fast as Ultra 2, according to the documentation that Sandisk supplies. So, if fastest write times are important to you, something in the 20mb/second range seems to take good advantage of the camera's write speed (presuming you have a K10, I can't speak for the other cameras), though for my purposes, Ultra 2 cards are fast enough most of the time.
