SanDisk Ultra II 1GB Compact Flash Card New 1G CF 66X

Feed back? I'm looking at one now for my D-reb... I shoot mostly sports and action shots. Any feedback or alternatives are appreciated.

Thanks

I have this card, along with a few others made by Lexar. It works fine on my 10D and 1DmkII so it should work fine on your DReb. The only "odd" thing about the SanDisk card is that every time I take the card out of the card reader or camera, the edge connector (the part where the connector pins go) comes out a tad so that if I press on that edge, it goes back into the body. I don't think there's anything wrong with it since I had it exchanged and the replacement card did the same thing. The only thing is that it just doesn't feel as "solid" as the other CF cards that I have from other makers. SanDisk tech support still hasn't told me if this is normal or not although they are hinting that my camera or card reader could somehow be at fault and causing this to happen. :confused:

If you shoot RAW format you might find that 1 GB fills up too fast. I use a 2 GB Extreme CF card and a couple of 1 GB cards on my 20D and often fill 3 or 4 GB in a day's shooting at sports events.

If you shoot JPG, 1 GB should be sufficient.
