flash cards

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Imaging Resource Discussion : One Thread

I just purchased a 32MB flash card. It will arrive Monday. My question is, are there different speeds to flash cards? The salesman told me if I pay $10 bucks more I will get a 32MB card that works twice as fast. I can not find anything to back up this claim. Thanks,

John Thomas

Don't know if the two cards you're looking at are Lexar and Sandisk but I think the following answer applies to any card...

Here's a site where somebody compared cards in the same hardware... http://smoothy.net/DigiCamTest/ Apparantly there IS a difference, and Sandisk is the slowest.
