Got an email from B&H advertising a price drop on Sandisk products. I have not done any comparison but posting this if you are in the market.

Thanks for the post. Memory is always cheaper in the states. Looking at comparisons, it's more than 50% off. http://www.photoprice.ca/cm/00019-00000/Memory.html

The prices on the cards are ridiculous. I was opting to get the regular UDMA but I figured it may be a while before these go down again so I went for the Extreme Pro.

I've seen B&H do that before, where prices would change out of the blue, even on prices/specials that are marked as good until a certain date.

In September they had two-pack deals where two 16GB 60mb/s were only $78.98, that's $39.49 each and then they increased the price just a few hours later.

So get it while they're HOT!

Last week at BestBuy, i bought Sandisk Extreme 30mb/s 8gig cards for $26.99 each. There were on sale from 41.99 if i remember right.

Seemed like a good price. I believe the reason is that there is a new (or relatively new) rebranding of the cards, the ones i bought are called "Extreme Video" as opposed to "Extreme III". The look identical performance-wise and the clerk told me it was the same exact card.

I think it's only the 8gb ones that were on sale though. I wanted specifically small cards, so it was perfect.

FWIW: Henry's has also dropped their prices on a bunch of SanDisk stuff.

THIS MUST MEAN THE 5DIII AND 7DII AND 24-70IS ARE COMING!!!!!!!!!

8GB Extreme (60mb/s) cards are $30 at B&H. $45.59US to your door. It's currently $60+tax at Henry's, the cheapest local price.
