Integral 16gb Class 10 SDHC Cards at my memory for £8.99

I put a thread up about these the other week and there still at a very good price,

Sandisk Extreme Pro 95mb/sec cards these are brilliant cards top of the line when it comes to cards IMO and this is by far and away the best price I've seen them for

8gb for under £19 at the time of posting (the price tends to fluctuate a little depending on demand)

Each card you buy also comes with a licence for a year of recovery software, that is brilliant it really works (trust me :bang I've got another 5 years worth of licences

I'd personally always go for these now over cheaper cards that have let me down in the past

Play.com have the new sandisk 16gb for about £12 and the 32gb for about £25. It's preorder but they are due in a couple of weeks.

I bought one of the Integral 16gb from MyMemory a few months back, works perfectly and is fast.

30MB/s isn't really all that fast when from amazon that I linked above you can get the top spec 90-95mb/s cards for only about £8 more, but I guess it depends what your using it for, also with the ones I linked you get the recovery software this only comes with the pro cards, you think/hope that you'll never need it but it's very good and works exceptionally well

matt, thanks.
i'm not sure what benefit i'll see from the speed, but fair shout on that and the recovery as i missed that

To be honest I'm sure a lot don't need the highest speed stuff, another thing is although I couldn't point you to any tangible evidence the extreme pro's from sandisk are so well built compared to cheaper cards :shrug:

, just been looking into getting a new card, and then thought about the read/write speeds.

does anyone know if or what slr's/bridge cams write speed is ?? im only asking as i assume they have a write speed, which would give me an idea of what sort of speed/class cards to use.

Most cameras are usb2 so likely to be slower transfers than a direct card reader copying to pc on any sdhc above class 4 I think. For write speeds when shooting just buy the fastest card you can afford or that the camera will work with, it won't hurt to give it the best chance to complete it's writes quickly.
