Compact Flash 133X by Scandisk?!???!?

[Ryguyinlj]

I found an interesting item the other day.... 133X Compact Flash

I found some other information on it here

I guess they use this tech called ESP. So.... does it work with the digital rebel? Is there anywhere that I could find this out?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

No, the Rebel has no way of writing this fast. That is a function of the camera, not the card. Quite frankly, I really don't think that there is any camera currently on the market that can take advantage of this speed.

Have you seen this chart on Rob Galbraith's site? Looks like Lexar's 40x and 80x cards write at about the same speed. The camera can only write so fast but newer cameras that come out keep writing faster and will benefit more from faster cards. Check out the speeds for the 1D Mark II...

what about updated firmware? would that help in the future?
