Sandisk Extreme IV Compact Flash 4GB: Extreme Photography!

Extreeeeeme! The Sandisk Extreme IV Compact Flash 4GB are coming out at the end of this month so you aspiring, amateur and professional photographers take note! I've been using an Ultra II compact flash card in my dSLR and it's been a consistent and reliable memory card. With the Extreme IV range, Sandisk have upped the ante. With faster read and write times, you'd probably only need one card because transfer of files to a computer is quick enough not to distract you away from when you're in "the zone" of photography. The Extreme IV range also comes with data recovery software so if you accidentally delete 4GB worth of photos (cringe!) there will still be light at the end of the tunnel. My wedding is coming up and we talked to the photographer last night. Hope he's using one of these. If not, he better get one from Mr.Gadget!
