Sandisk Page
Any one know their CF stuff?

I’ve just bought a sandisk 8GB Extreme III CF cardover the internet for my D300. The webpage photo showed the version with the silver wave across the top (Which I thought signified the faster version), the one I had supplied has 30MB/s printed on it but is plain black (as shown on Sandisk Page
). Whats the difference between the versions? Are they the same speed just a different confusing packaging? Or have I got one of the older slower versions?

Cheers

Extreme III isn’t the fastest, that’s extreme IV (expensive)
Mine looks like this:

Cheers Simon,

I knew extreme IV was faster (but way more expensive), just wanted to check I had the faster version of the extreme III before I opened the packaging up. Seems they did a 20MB/s version previously and I don’t want that version.

Both of these have useful advice:
