Thought I'd start this as a place to reccomend Cfast cards.

Anyone heard of these guys:

They do a 256G for $289

B&H have a Sandisk 128G for $349!

Yes, works great in my H6D-100c using a Sandisk reader.

Good find -- are they only sold direct, or do they distribute through places like Amazon, etc?

The Delkin off-brand seems to be good. I picked up a "KomputerBay" 128GB off of Amazon a while back, and it didn't play well with my 1DX2, so it got sent back.

Waiting for the tech to get used in more things to help the prices come down a bit.

I just purchased the 256GB when they popped up briefly on Amazon the other day -- Works great in my H6D-50, even better than my 64GB Sandisk, which is on the list of "compatible cards".

and for reference, results for my Sandisk Extreme PRO 64GB:

Yes, I have two of these cards, which work perfectly and are read with my Lexar card reader.

I use Hoodman CFast cards and they work flawlessly.

Did anybody try this card? Is it worth buying?

Those are garbage. I had one of them before and returned it. It would always cause issues in my 1DX2, and didn't work at all in the H6D.

I have been using the 64GB since Christmas without problem.

Thank you!
I was looking to get the 32gb just to try. At £23, it is well worth a go!

Forgot to mention. Straight out of the box the camera did not recognise the card which caused me a little panic to start with. However, I then formatted it on my computer and the camera then recognised it and has not been a problem since. I had the same thing occur with an XQD card on a different camera system.
