Just curious as to your thoughts on the 5D Mark II & 7D for video. As I heard they were used on the set of The Avengers a film that relied heavy on video quality.

Not mine, but I found it on the web while I was doing research. I really liked the bridge shots!

Posted this in the K-5 section, when I guess it would have been better to post it here. Here it is nonetheless.

Well I got all my cards in. Using ChkFlsh on my 2009 Toshiba (Vista) laptop here are my results if anyone cares. I plan to use 2 for my K-5 and 2 for my GoPro Hero3 Black Edition.

All WRITE SPEEDS.

Micro Samsung 16GB Plus Extreme Class-10
15.85 mb/s

Micro Sandisk 16GB Ultra UHS-1
11.45mb/s

Samsung Essential 16GB Class-10
16 mb/s

Sandisk Extreme UHS-1
17.68 mb/s

Sandisk 2GB Class-2
6.36 mb/s

Kingston 4GB Class-4

32 GB Film Pro Class-10
10.5 mb/s

Micro 2 GB Samsung
6.8 mb/s

32 GB Adata Class-10
4 mb/s RETURNED

I presume my laptop is what is holding back some of the numbers I received.

Thanks for all the input!!! I've now got more cards than I need, but I'll test them out, and see which ones pan out.

I recently purchased a K-5 and wanted to know if there was a common card most people use that is smooth for usage. i.e.A card that keeps up with high rate a photos being taken. And has no issues with HD recording. With my old K100d I just used a normal SD card (4GB). But I plan to use SDHC class 10 32 GB cards.

So far I have (and it would be great if one of them was recommended)

Adata

FilmPro

and Transcend

I also recently purchased a GoPro Hero HD2 so I'm not really sure which device will be more sensitive towards the quality of SD cards. Thanks for any input!!!

Pentax K7 3rd party battery grip

I've read through many of the reviews and for my use, I think a 3rd party will be just fine. One question though. This grip states K-7: Comfortable Vertical Shutter Battery Grip For Pentax K-7 DSLR Camera | eBay But from what I've read it should work on a K-5 correct?

Thanks for the kind words!!! I'm in the process of selling my K100D and looking to get a K30 so I can keep my lens collection. And living in Colorado, just makes you want to take more pictures ;-)

I'm still very much a rookie, but enjoy taking photos nonetheless.

Old bridge in Oklahoma, and one of the 1st photos, I really enjoyed taking.

Granby, CO

Mt. Evans, CO

Breckenridge, CO

Loveland Pass, CO

Some old Squadron coins of mine. And an attempt at macro.

Forgive the amateurishness of my shots, I just decided one day to buy a DSLR, and from that point on, it's been a little hobby of mine, amongst the many others I have. I'm sure I have ALOT to learn!!!!
