Right now, I have to transcode AVCHD to Apple ProRes, which is annoying but still better than dealing with tape, and the quality is stellar.

I'm honestly quite happy with a few 2GB Extreme II cards for my Nikon D90.

I mean, SanDisk already sells the Class 6 Extreme III 30MB/s Edition. What gives? Will this one be cheaper?

The new Class 10 specification is not a new type of transfer type, but more so a sustained minimum write speed.  If the device has no issue transferring at that speed, then it will write at at least 10 MB/s to the card.<br><br>This isnt like SD -> SDHC.  Its not the same thing at all.<br><br>The other thing that is not properly identified in this article is the difference between Sandisk's speed rating and the SD standard speed rating (or the Class designation).  The SD rating indicates a minimum speed.  Sandisk has found that they can reach a maximum of 30MB/s with their cards due to faster chips that they use.<br><br>People often write off Sandisk cards as being higher priced versions of Patriot and OCZ SD cards, but they are not.  Those lower priced cards usually sit around the Class 10 speed levels, while the Sandisk cards tend to perform much better depending on which one you pick up.  Is it worth the money?  Well, if you have a 4.5 fps DSLR taking raw images, its worth every penny.  I know from experience that these are actually faster than the lower priced counterparts in terms of write speeds.  Read speeds don't matter in this case.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ruben]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 25th 2009 8:50AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on SanDisk's 32GB class 10 SDHC card competes for world's fastest]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/25/sandisks-32gb-class-10-sdhc-card-competes-for-worlds-fastest/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/25/sandisks-32gb-class-10-sdhc-card-competes-for-worlds-fastest/</guid><description><![CDATA[The 30Mb/s (22 for the Panasonic) denotes READ speed, Class 10 (both devices) states the MINIMUM WRITE speed is 10Mb/s. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Robin Jacobs]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 25th 2009 6:31AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on SanDisk's 32GB class 10 SDHC card competes for world's fastest]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/25/sandisks-32gb-class-10-sdhc-card-competes-for-worlds-fastest/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/25/sandisks-32gb-class-10-sdhc-card-competes-for-worlds-fastest/</guid><description><![CDATA[MB/s not Mb/s.
