If you're taking photos of little Suzie holding up her spelling bee award then you don't need a fast CF card. If you're shooting sports photos, though, that speed is the difference between staying in business or putting your gear for sale on eBay.
Here's an example: I shoot world class track & field. With the older "slow" cards it would take my camera 42 seconds to write the 21 RAW images from the buffer on to the card. While that may not be a problem for most people, if I were shooting Jeremy Wariner who's running his 400 meter race in just 43+ seconds then I need to worry.
With these super fast cards it now takes my newer camera only 6 seconds to write the 28 images in the buffer.
No grey hair and eBay doesn't get my business.
Fast cards are nice and these cards are fast.Get more detail about SanDisk 16GB Extreme Pro CF memory card - UDMA 90MB/s 600x (SDCFXP-016G-P91, Retail Package).
