So anybody know the write speed of this card? Is the "Extreme Pro" faster than a mere "Extreme"?

From Sandisk's website for the Extreme Pro:write speeds up to 90 MB/s** (600X) and read speeds up to 95 MB/s** (633X) . The caveat and double asterisk is that the speed may be limited by your camera. They work just fine in full-frame professional DSLRs.Extreme Pro are much faster than Extreme cards. It varies by specific card by the rated speeds may be 1.5 to 2.0 times faster. You can see the specs on Sandisk's website. Their website also has a device-recommendation tool where you can get a recommendation for your camera or other device.

Yes, the Extreme Pro is faster than the Extreme. The caveat is, both are only as a fast as the camera you are use.If you have a professional camera, such as the Nikon 7100, and want to achieve high-resolution-raw photographs, or, HD videos for a short film, then you would want the Extreme Pro.

http://www.sandisk.com/products/memory-cards/sd/. Yes the read/write speed is 95 MB/s compared to 80/60.

Sony rep states 60Mbs/sec WRITE speed. Be aware that card manufacturers often state READ speed on card so do some research. I have had excelent luck with the Sandisk Extreme Pro 64GB card.

I believe it is the time it takes to write to the card, it seems to process my pictures faster than the old card I had that was a slower card. I do know this one holds lots more pictures than the 30gb I was using before.

Its a Class 10 Card which means its fast. I can say it does write faster than other Class 10 cards I have. I have a 24 MP camera and even at its top quality setting I have never had to wait on it. It also works very well in the Video mode. And the price cant be beat.

I got the SAMSUNG MicroSDXC™ 64GB PRO Class 10 UHS-I Card for the fast read/write speed (70/20mbs). Search for best price!

Only one kind of SanDisk Extreme Pro SD card. Bunch of different sizes from 8gb to 64gb. Also, there is an Extreme (not Pro) card which is slower speed. Make sure to get a 10x card - newest version.

Thanks; I'd missed that comment in the dpreview review. Seems to contradict what I found at kenrockwell.com/tech/cf-sd.htm -- basically, that a faster card matters for downloading (e.g. camera to computer) but not in modern cameras unless you overflow their internal buffer memory. Ken's description sounds like picture-taking speed won't be inhibited with a slower card because of the camera's buffer, which is what I care about most. Slower playback and downloading is fine. In other words, write speed is more important to me than read speed and apparently the camera's buffer effectively compensates for slower cards when writing to them.

Iam not sure about rewrite speeds of the card. I bought it for a HD Sony camcorder to use as a storage medium and it has worked very well. No problems. I recommend this product. Sorry can't directly answer your question, I am not so tech savvy.

I tried to update from the company but it didn't work either. But it still running fine at the writing speed roughly 80-90Mb/s. But don't know for some reason sometimes fail to write

I am getting between 50-80MBps writes and slightly higher reads. Overall I am very happy with this card. My only complaint, if you can even call it that, is that the USB ports are not as tight as I like my ports to be. Not a big deal at all however and for the price, the performance is certainly right!

The Extreme Pro card captures data at a much faster rate than certain other SD cards, thus it is more optimal for capturing images and video. For example, when shooting pictures quickly (as in burst mode), the faster the image capture, the less time between shots.

Yes faster card can help clear your buffer faster and allow you to take more photos again. BUT, this is partially true as PRO cameras will surely take advantage of faster cards but budget/entry level camera may not matter too much. Remember in camera buffer sizes are different as well and it's write performance may differ too. I can not say how Nikon D5300 would perform but I'll tell you one thing, I would not user a regular Class 10 cards. I know Sandisk Extreme Pro is expensive but consider Sandisk Extreme model. Depending on the generation of the model... some are upto 45MB write, some were upto 60MB. So I can not say if this Extreme Pro card will help you as much as PRO cameras would get but it will for sure give you a better result. If price doesn't matter, go ahead and buy Extreme Pro, if not Extreme model will be more than enough.

Yes. I have a Sandisk Extreme Pro 128GB UDMA7 card rated at 160MB/s. On this reader, I'm getting a whopping 50MB/s. junk.

Get Sandisk Micro SD Card HC Extreme. Regular cards has a lower writing speed

I bought a very inexpensive 2GB SD card of the Crucial brand. These are almost always on sale somewhere on the Web. It's not rated at a super high speed (40x), but it seems to work fast enough in my A590IS. I contacted Canon Tech support re. what would be the optimum speed chip to get for the 590 and they didn't seem to know. Duuuh..., so I ended up with the Crucial. I don't use the highest res setting, as the lens isn't really up to it, so there's room for plenty O' pix on the 2 Gigger. .bh.

I'm using the Samsung pro xc1. It has ver fast read and write speeds. I figured if I'm spending that much on a player why skimp on the card. I have been very happy with this card. It is the 64G

I had the same question so I spoke with a Canon rep today. He recommended SanDisk but noted that the sd780is only writes up to 18-19 MB/sec. So it's essentially a waste of money to purchase a card that writes any faster than 20 MB/sec. Check this one out: Sandisk 8GB EXTREME SDHC SD Card Class 6 (SDSDX3-8192 Bulk Package) However, faster cards are likely to write and read faster through a card reader or on your computer.
