Hello All!
I hope you had/ are having a merry Christmas (or as they called it in Futurama "Ex-Mas" :-) ), sweet Hanukkah, and are about to have Happy New Year! I just came across some tests for the 16 GB Class SDHC Cards by Transcend, - posted on Amazon. Since it is a recurring topic, I thought I'd share this finding with you: http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/product-gallery/B002WE4HE2/ref=cm_ciu_pdp_images_2?ie=UTF8&index=2 Notice, that the tests show card-to-card and test-to-test variations. I was able to find one such test for Sandisk Extreme 16 GB: http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/product-gallery/B002HFER6O/ref=cm_ciu_pdp_images_1?ie=UTF8&index=1 It doesn't seem to stand up to the promise of 30 MB/s. By the way, does anybody know the difference between Sandisk Extreme SDHC "HD Video" card, and Sandisk Extreme SDHC with the same Class 10 and 30 MB/s rating but without "HD Video" label? Are they optimized differently, or is it just a marketing ploy? Additionally, I am confused to see "Class 6" and "30 MB/s" on the same card: http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Extreme-Performance-SDSDX3-016G-Package/dp/B003EGBHHW/ Sandisk's website has the same images for "Extreme" cards for "Camera", "Advanced Camera", and "Camcorder" cards, and no explanation about the differences. I remember that I was looking into this questions previously, but I don't remember if I found any clear answer.. probably not..
