I am just looking at buying a new Lexar CF card, for my 7d2.
Looking through several sites i notice there are two versions of the same card, and two very different prices.

One is listed as UDMA7 and is the more expensive version the other is listed as 160MB/S.
I am confused as to which is the better one to buy in terms of write speed to the camera to prevent slow buffering.

Any advice to clear this up would be great, thanks.
 
Can you paste the links?
Udma 7 is the latest transfer protocol so that one should be the fastest.

Has it not got the MB/S speed listed for the UDMA7 card?
 
Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately it doesn't list the MB/S for the UDMA7 card on ebay or amazon.
 
Be extremely cautious about buying memory cards from Ebay or 3rd party sellers on Amazon. There are fake cards out there.
 
One is listed at £46.99 which has UDMA7 in the bottom left corner.
The second one does not show UDMA7 on the card and is listed at £55.90

I never thought buying a new card could be causing so much confusion, and how can you tell a genuine product from a fake one ?

Unfortunately people only end up realising it's a fake card when it doesn't hold as many photos as it should or it's really really slow.

I never buy from ebay or 3rd party sellers as a rule after i had a fake one years ago.

I only use 7dayshop and Wex now mainly, or just the more famous camera shops for that reason.
