I recently updated my Canon 20D to a 7D. With the raw file size now more the 2X larger, I started to investigate larger capacity memory. The 7D supports CompactFlash with UDMA6 performance, so I was also interested faster memory.
After purchasing this memory, I ran my own tests. My original memory card was a SanDisk 4GB rated at 15MB/s. With the older card and the 7D I am able to capture 17 shots (using RAW only) before the buffer is full and the capture slows dramatically. It took approximately 26 seconds for the buffer to empty with no more pictures taken (based upon the red write light on the camera). I replaced the memory with the new 60MB/s SanDisk 32GB card. The buffer was still full after 17 raw shots. But, the huge difference was that the buffer was cleared after only 6 seconds.
Bottom line - is this card expensive? - Yes
Is this card worth it? - to me, yes
If you do high speed bursts frequently, this card is a big improvement. If you take single shots only, you will not notice any difference. Unless you get a high speed reader, then you will absolutely see the performance increase.

Comments about SanDisk 32GB Extreme CompactFlash Memory Card:
I use SanDisk CF line of cards, and have professionally since 2003. I've never had one fail on me yet, despite using them in extreme weather conditions - both in Canadian winters and in the deserts of the USA southwest in the summer.

I use the 32gb San Disk card mostly for video on my 5D. It gives me about 92 mins, which helps greatly when I don't have time to download on set. I'd recommend it to any DSLR Video Shooter.

Comments about SanDisk 32GB Extreme CompactFlash Memory Card:
Being out the field alot , I try and travel light, but also want a reliable CF card. I trust SanDisk and I have not yet had one fail on me. 32GB is a good sized card to take with me on shoots. My CF cards go through cold and brutal weather and keep going.

Comments about SanDisk 32GB Extreme CompactFlash Memory Card:
Having an 18mpx.camera and shooting totally in RAW requires larger memory and I wanted to try the 32GB SanDisk. Having used it for several weeks, shooting several days per week and I have been very pleased. It is functioning extremely well and it seems that I can just keep adding so many images before having to delete or reformat the card. Very happy with it. Will soon be shooting in extremely cold and possibly snowy conditions and this will allow me to shoot all day without fumbling around to change the cards out under those conditions.
