To go with the D200 I am picking up next week I need to get a 2gig CF card also.
I was wondering what would be the prefered choice between the Sandisk Ultra 2 and the Lexar 80x. I know the Lexar is faster in theory (80x vs 66x of Sandisk) but in real world what are peoples experiences? I have also heard comments about Lexar failing but not actually read any real reports of this.
The D200 brochure mentions the Sandisk cards as the benchmark for the camera, I'm wondernig if this means the Ultra will perform better than the Lexar.
On the Rob G CF database it shows the Ultra writes faster in the D70 and the Lexar writes faster in the D2x which doesn't help unless anyone here knows if the D200 writes info the same way as either the D2x/D70?
Hmmmm decisions decisions!
Any advice appreciated
