Which CF Card?

Hi,

I have just bought a secondhand 5D and am wondering what the best CF card to use is in terms of speed and memory? I usually use Sandisk.

Many thanks
Jaime

Well the camera is 12.8 megapixel and has a burst of 3FPS so something like an 4 or 8GB Sandisk ultra (30 mb/s) should do the job nicely.

A quick look on play revealed they were £12 and £24 repectively. I don't thik you would get much advantage from the faster UDMA cards as I don't believe the camera supports it.
