I am a retired archaeological photographer with many published photos who paid $50 for my first FOUR MEGABYTE CF card 8-10 years ago. (It still works, BTW!). It was worth the wait.

As fast as you think it will be... it is better. Browsing 8MB pictures is almost like viewing on a HD.

No problems except that one of my USB card readers hangs up when trying to read it, another one I have works fine. Don't know if it has something to do with 12 not being a power of 2, or just too big for the reader, or what. Other Extreme III's read fine on same reader.

The SanDisk Extreme III is a great card. The 12 Gb card MAY be fine for my 30D, but I've not filled it up to the limit, so I don't know if it will truly hold the full 12 gigabytes of photos. The "capacity" is not really a CON, since it does have very high capacity. I'm just not sure if I'll be able to utilize the whole card in my camera. I would recommend the Extreme III to anyone.
