Catalyst · 15th April 2004

vince123123 · 15th April 2004

wah lau so cheap now!!!!

jbma · 15th April 2004

Does this mean that the WA technology will not benefit Canon users? Appreciate your reply. Thanks.

espn · 15th April 2004

WA is only for Nikon DSLRs, Canon doesn't support WA.

KNIGHT ONG · 15th April 2004

Damn good deal ...

mpenza · 15th April 2004

should I get one or should I not.... decisions decisions. just got the MP3 player with potential 4GB to be extracted...

jbma, Canon have not supported WA yet but a fast card is still a fast card and would give better write times (though still not as fast as would be on the newer Nikon DSLRs).

NiVleK · 15th April 2004

How does this card compare to Sandisk Ultra II?

mpenza · 15th April 2004

performs a bit slower. can check out details at Rob's CF performance database.

How much for the 2GB version?

kiwitan · 15th April 2004

Are you refering to the item CF1GB-40 Lexar Professional WA Series CompactFlash CF (40X) 1GB shown on the www.massorder.com. The price listed is $399. What then is the CS promotion, if the general public price is the same as what you are offering now? Can you clarify?

Are these Lexars the revamped versions? According to Rob Galbraith's site, these newer 40X cards have serial no. that ends with "C977".
