Will this Samsung Pro card write faster than the Sandisc Extreme / Extreme Plus / Extreme Pro? I am using a Canon Powershot S100. Thanks.

Actually it's faster than the Sandisk Extreme which I believe is only at 45mbps...the Sandisk Plus is an equal to it made by Sandisk... but the Extreme Pro is the fastest one out right now. It has a write speed of 90mbps as this has 80mpbs like the Extreme Plus. I'm shooting with a Nikon D800 which shoots in very large RAW files and haven't had a problem at all. I love it. If you are a Sandisk fan I would recommend choosing the Plus or Pro if you aren't getting this.

If someone can answer definitively, please do. My guess would be that you won't see much of a difference between the two in an S100. But like I said, that's a total guess.

neither of these cards are that fast in RAW mode, you need the SDHC card to get faster RAW cycling time. This has everything to do with the read/write speed of the card you use. The fast cards need to be read through an adapter on your USB connection or by hooking the camera up(with the card in it) with the cable supplied with he camera.

The write speed stays above 45MB/s but that will be more than ample for still photography especially. It's also plenty for HD video or still bursts coming from a DSLR if you are converting this to a full-size SD card.

Thanks; I'd missed that comment in the dpreview review. Seems to contradict what I found at kenrockwell.com/tech/cf-sd.htm -- basically, that a faster card matters for downloading (e.g. camera to computer) but not in modern cameras unless you overflow their internal buffer memory. Ken's description sounds like picture-taking speed won't be inhibited with a slower card because of the camera's buffer, which is what I care about most. Slower playback and downloading is fine. In other words, write speed is more important to me than read speed and apparently the camera's buffer effectively compensates for slower cards when writing to them.

I have a 16gb, 45mb/s SanDisk. The speed is what I found works best for this camera when you are shooting RAW. As to the size, I think you can safely go up to whatever your budget supports. I myself would rather have a couple cards in case one fails as compared to one huge capacity one.

Which memory card would work best all around in the canon sx260, a sandisk card rated 6 or a faster rated 10? Some have suggest either would do fine for still pictures while others suggested that a 10 rated card would be better for HD video. But is there a big difference in performance in this camera between the two?

Iam not sure about rewrite speeds of the card. I bought it for a HD Sony camcorder to use as a storage medium and it has worked very well. No problems. I recommend this product. Sorry can't directly answer your question, I am not so tech savvy.

This is confusing because of the difference between read and write speeds. I received the black extreme cases rated at 80mb read speed, 45mb write speed. On my phone browser it shows the extreme plus under frustration free packaging. I opted for that sand did not get a plus card. I believe the extreme plus read and write speed is the same at 80mb.

Yes, the Extreme Pro is faster than the Extreme. The caveat is, both are only as a fast as the camera you are use.If you have a professional camera, such as the Nikon 7100, and want to achieve high-resolution-raw photographs, or, HD videos for a short film, then you would want the Extreme Pro.

this write speed is "normal" with all my sandisk ultra cards with all usb 2.0 devices. Tested in pc (h2testw) i can never get even close to class 10 write speed. Don't know what high end slr cameras or tablets are compatible with "Ultra" speed and don't care. Save your money and get a regular c10 card.

The Extreme Pro card captures data at a much faster rate than certain other SD cards, thus it is more optimal for capturing images and video. For example, when shooting pictures quickly (as in burst mode), the faster the image capture, the less time between shots.

I recommend the SanDisk Extreme Pro | SDHC UHS-I Card (95 MB/s).Maximum speed for burst shooting, fast transfers and Full HD video. I use 16 Gb.

I bought a 2 GB Sandisk Extreme III (20 MB/s write rate). It works fantastically. I was able to continuously record video until I completely filled the card (over 18 minutes) with 480x640 resolution at 30 frames per second (like a standard digital camcorder). It costs a bit more than standard SD memory cards, but if you are shooting video it is well worth it. I ordered mine from Jowow through Amazon for under $40 delivered.

Personally I alway go by "you get what you pay for". I actually use the SanDisk Extreme III card. It has a 30mb/s rate, highest in its class I believe. The cards are a little on the expensive side, especially for the 16GB, but worth it I think. Because of the high compression rate, it take a while to download/transfer files, this helps with that when you have an average computer. Not an overwhelming difference, but enough to say "Awesome".

The Surface Pro supports the UHS-I SDXC standard which would allow up to 100/MBs. So in theory it should be able to support the 70/20 speeds of this card just fine. I'm waiting to get this card in and will let you know my results with my Surface Pro.

I think its the fastest CF card you can get, its 800 Mbs per second. whereas Sandisks are only a fraction of this speed

32pro micro sdhc from samsung is just as fast as the built-in card. I got the 64pro and can't tell the difference between the built-in or the 64pro.
