And maybe this is of interest to some: http://www.pictureline.com/newsletter/article.php?id=401
IMO, skip the 32 gig card in favor of two Sandisk 16 gig Extreme IVs. It's not like you're shooting with a 40/50/0R 60 meg MFD system (I use a Sandisk 32 gig III in my H3D-II/39 because the files are so big.)
If download speed is an issue buy a second FW800 reader and daisy chain them ... two 16 gig IVs at once will be much faster than loading one 32 gig card. I have 4 Lexar Pro FW800 readers daisy chained and use them to download 4 cards from different cameras at once to the same folder ...(to be sorted by time shot in the browser).
I have one 16 gig Sony memory stick in the camera ... It's there in case I get caught somewhere without a back-up to the CF. I've only used it once to make sure it worked. Never had a real need yet. Wish the camera shot to both cards ... that would kill any of the persistently pesky comparisons to the 5D-MKII ...
