Actually I was wrong you can find it for less than that on Amazon.  Same card, same part number half the price. On 5/24/2019 8:05 PM, P. J. Alling wrote: Oh yes, I forgot to mention.  It appears that the best bang for the buck if you're using a Pentax camera,  is this

It’s been a couple of years since I bought memory cards. My standard cards now are Sandisk Extreme 64G and Lexar Pro 1000x 128G. They support write speeds faster than any camera I own and download to my Mac mini at nearly the full theoretical speed of USB3. Better than that, or larger

It's been a while since I've purchased SD cards. What is the current price/performance/quality sweet spot these days? Ideally in make, model and size. And if someone bought cards in the near past, a pointer to the item in the store would be fantastic. I'm going to need to get a couple cards

Yes, it is.  It's the tip of what's often called a staff, or wand, but given it's looks really kind of a ceremonial spear. On 4/26/2019 9:23 PM, Daniel J. Matyola wrote: Well photographed. Is that a Masonic trinket of some sort? Dan Matyola http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/danieljmatyola
