Topic: SanDisk Extreme III 30MB/sec SD Card ON SALE!

[RGecy]

Just wanted to let everyone know that the SanDisk Extreme III SD Cards are on sale at Best Buy this week for $39.95.  This is the Class 10 version that has up to 30MB/s Read/Write speed.  This is, as far as I know, the fastest on the market right now. 

SanDisk Extreme III SD Card 30MB/s

I have both the 20MB/s older version and the now the new 30MB/s and must say it is extremely faster.  Absolutely no slow down when making recordings, and Snapshots are done in less than a second.  In fact it pretty much is instantaneous.  When I press the mark button, it almost immediately shows completed. 

I highly encourage anyone making recordings to use the SanDisk Extreme III 30MB/s SD cards. Please make sure you check the packaging when you purchase and it says 30MB/s.  The 20MB/s Extreme III is still being sold, so make sure you are getting what you pay for!

Also ordered two. Have been happy with the SanDisk Ultra. Another three months of ice before I can find out what the
Extreme III can do.

It's a shame pricing is no where near that here in Australia - and as far as I can see Best Buy doesn't do international orders

DaveW,

You need a contact here in the US who can purchase them for you!

Amazon has it cheaper 53.77 so save you 6 dollars.

Chet,

Welcome to the forum.  When it was on sale, it was $39.95.  Some retailers like 17th Street Photo have a $20 rebate thru SanDisk, but their regular price still puts it above $39.95 after rebaate.

If anyone finds another deal, please post it here for us.
