Have quite a few San Disk Extreme III CF cards I have used with my Rebel XT. I am getting a new Canon 7D this week. The Extreme III cards don't say anything about being UDMA rated as I've been told is required by the Canon 7D. Can I use these cards with the 7D?

It is not required to use UDMA on a 7D. yes, you can use them.

Thanks. I guess they'll be a little slow, but at least I can use them!

Been using Extreme III and the new 30mb/s Ultra cards in my 7D and haven't had any issues or noticeable slow down.

I have the Extreme 3 and 4 versions and use both in my 7d. Have not noticed any difference in them at all. I got the 4s because they were faster and I thought that would be better for video. So far, I honestly cannot tell a difference.

the cards only need to be 6MB/s to record 1080p video.
