I am looking for fast memory card for my canion 500d as I am planning to do long exposure night photography.

I already have transcend class6 card which is terribly slow- It took 45 mins to save 45 mins exposed.

I finalised sandisk extreme pro 95mb/sec ( http://www.amazon.co.uk/SanDisk-Extreme-Pro-SDHC-Card/dp/B005LFT3GG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1332937624&sr=8-1 )

but then I read on some forum that one pro photographer has returned that card because it wasn't saving fast enough.

Could someone please suggest me a fast card.

Mnay thanks.
 
your camera is not doing dark frame subtraction?

For long exposures, it should. That simply means that it will take a second exposure just like the first - except that the shutter is closed. The camera software will then subtract the noise in the second, dark, exposure from the first image, the one with the shutter open.

In that case, the camera will need another 45 minutes for the dark frame if your original exposure was 45 minutes.

Card speed has nothing to do with this problem.

And you might have better luck posting questions about Canon products in one of the Canon forums here. I'm sure they'll be very helpful.
 
Try another forum. ANY other forum.
You bumped a two week old post to tell someone to go to "ANY other forum", after he had already received, within 90 minutes of posting, a correct and courteous answer from glanglois?

Take your own advice, and "Try another forum. ANY other forum." In fact, I'd suggest, that you make it a forum on another site. ANY other site.
