PhreeZone 20 #1 September 29, 2008 http://www.adorama.com/IDSCFE316G30.html Adorama has 16 gig Extreme3 cards for $25 after mailin rebates from the manufactor. Rebates are good for another 2 weeks. The vendor is as good if not better then B&H Photo. http://slickdeals.net/permadeal/14106 Smaller cards are about 8-15 for the 8gig or 16 gig 20mb/s cards. I know 16 gigs is about enough to last most people 2-3 months jumping with out ever clearing the card but its better to have more space then not enough for this price.[url]Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frost 1 #4 September 30, 2008 indeed they do. Some people my be opposed to applying for a credit card though. Update: 16 GB cards are on back order... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #5 September 30, 2008 Its not a credit card, its a preloaded Visa Card. I already got mine from the rebate earlier this year. You are not applying for a card, they just load one up with your rebate amount and mail it to you.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The111 1 #7 October 9, 2008 What an awesome deal. I read Slickdeals almost daily myself but would have missed this one if it wasn't posted here. Ordered 3x 8GB cards last week and got them in the mail last night. Paid $170 total and will get $160 back. That is a damn good deal, $3 per 8GB card. Now I have the space to start shooting in RAW. www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #8 October 9, 2008 Get Slickdeals's RSS feed I'm shooting with the 4 gig cards that I snagged early on in the rebate. I'll only shoot RAW on fun jumps since it takes forever to buffer with the XTi, but these cards give me a ton of space for ground shots in RAW.

Yeh, I was wondering about that. I have the XTi too. Planned to do some test jumps and see if the buffer speed bothered me, shooting in RAW+JPEG. I guess I'd get a lot less shots out, huh? (assuming I was going for a LOT of shots which on some important jumps is the case)www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
