That was pretty much my thought, too. Sandisk 30MB/sec cards can be picked up for around $1 to $1.50 per GB from a lot of the online merchants. That's about what the top-of-the-line cards could do when the K5 was released, and I paid a lot more than that for the 8GB cards I picked up when I bought mine quite some time later. I doubt if K5 needs anything more than that, but if it does you can find the 45MB/sec cards (that's the "Extreme", not the "Ultra") at much the same price if you look hard enough. It looks as though the current top-of-the-line speed is around 95MB/sec (the "Extreme Pro"), but that's going to cost about twice as much per GB. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
