Sony A850 and compact flash card

[barry685]

Does anyone know if there is a problem using a
Transcend 32 GB 133x CompactFlash Memory Card TS32GCF133 in a A850?

Someone wants to sell me some for $30.00 each.

Thanks
Barry

I only have experience with a dud 16Gb Transcend card actually sold by Amazon UK via one of their overseas dealers. I have heard of a number of fake Transcend cards of various sizes on the international markets.

I have now stopped buying any new Transcend cards which is a shame for the original genuine Transcend company but it is impossible to know if anything on offer is genuine or not.

Thanks
I decided to pass it up.

I have tried several brands of CF cards over the years

I find that SanDisk Extreme Pro is the best I have used

I am currently using an Extreme Pro 16 GB, Ultra reliable, Ultra fast
