Can anyone tell me the answers to the following questions?
1) Is there a size limit to the size of the cards it will take? EG 16gb or something?
2) Is there a limit on the speed of card it can take? Like would it be overkill getting a Sandisk Extreme IV when it limits the transfer speed to that of the Extreme III

And a little question about the SD cards:
3) Does it take SDHC?

Thankyou Please :D

1. I know it will take 16Gb
2. There may be little benefit but they should work. I use Extreme III and Transcend High Speed in mine
3. Yes with the latest firmware

I normally carry 8Gb CF and 16Gb SDHC in both 1DII and 1DsII

Legend Badger, think thats my points answered unless someone else knows otherwise?

I'll be in touch soon as i might have one or two quick Qs for you if thats ok?

Oh, and i'll be using EXIII's anyway, just wondering if it limited the speeds etc
