Hi

Is it worth to buy a sandisk Extreme 4 disk for the 5D?
I heard that it will not improve speed because the protocol from the 5D is different from the protocol to get max advantige in speed with the Extreme 4.

Other question, does this combo work?

anyone having experience?

Thanks in advance
best regards
Hans

Hi Hans

I use this card in my 5D mk 1, I have no problems with it, although I am not worried about the speed of the card, it's plenty fast enough for me and the combo certainly works well, even on rapid shooting (well, as rapid as the 5D mk 1 gets):)

Thanks for your feedback.
So it works.
I needed to know in case I want to buy some extra cards and then maybe I can choose next time for the faster one.

best regards
Hans
