the reason i asked as the price is for 64gb is 268 vs 163 at current IT show. so far what i gathered on internet is comparable for both brand except a friend in memory industry the diff could in the quality tier.

i am just plain lazy to switch card :bsmilie: and also seeing saving of some $ on 2x 32gb vs 1x 64gb. i further clarified with my friend, it seems the cost diff could be due to number QC inspection performed to test 64gb, it can be much longer for larger capacity card thus costing more
Just bought a bunch of 32GB Class 10 30MB/s Sandisk Ultra at $33 each from SLS less than a month ago, under Kaira. And that is as cheap as it goes then without resorting to parallel imports.
There are at least 3 Sandisk distributors in Singapore. Vector Magnetics charges the highest and that's why you see those with their stickers can be twice the price of those without. The others (Kaira and Achieva?) are much cheaper but seems no obvious way to differentiate from parallel imports visually. This is my understanding after chatting with some of the sellers but anyone with better info, do go ahead and correct me.

The usual suspects in Sim Lim Sq.. or any Sitex promotion.Where would one go now to get a good price for a CF card , i am looking at the medium speed level of 60M/s , dont care about which brand, capacity depends on pricing. its for my 5d/m3 mainly shooting pictures and not much video. Dont need high burstrate either.
appreciate any feedback, thanks.
