I use to be all Sandisk memory cards, but got a really good deal on some Lexar cards about 1.5 yrs ago. The Lexar cards have been working good for me.

I only use sandsisk. I've never had an issue with their CF cards, but I've had 3~4 SD cards fail on me. 2 were sandisks, 2 were something else. I HATE SD cards....

Never had one fail, but I do much prefer CF cards...especially for DSLRs.

So much nicer to work with IMO.

PNY, Transcend, and Sandisk have all worked well for me.

After having 2 Sandisks fail on me years ago, I moved to only Lexar Pros and haven't had a failure since (knocking on wood). Sandisk no more for me.

I got a 16GB Rigidata as part of a used camera deal and it hasn't failed on me in over 2 years of consistent use.

I'm Sandisk only - mix of 16GB and 8GB Extreme III, IV and the new Extreme (60mb/s).

The new Extreme is great, and at 16GB makes a nice companion for my 5D2. I'll prob get a couple more of these as backup and get rid of the III and IV.
