Thought I'd start this as a place to reccomend Cfast cards.
Anyone heard of these guys:
http://egodisk.com
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".

Just wrote up a quick review of these cards on my blog @ http://www.thebroketographers.com/blog/2017/3/29/egodisk-cfast-20-card-review
Did anybody try this card? Is it worth buying?

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.

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.
Has anyone used this brand of CFast card? Good/bad/avoid?

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.
Interesting. I have always purchased my cards overseas because here in NZ they are twice the cost they are in the USA (literally) for no reason I've ever worked out.
I usually stick to Sandisk from B&H.
