B&H are having a 2 for 1 sale on these cards, which comes out much cheaper than Australian stock inclusive of shipping.

Yes they are special
That's equivalent to Sandisk Extreme, which you can get 32GB for about $32.
I'd prefer a bigger card than two smaller cards.
No it isn't. It's equivalent to the SanDisk Extreme Pro which costs about $90 for a 32GB.

According to Sandisk, the Extreme Pro writes at up to 90MB/s, and reads at 95MB/s.
90 last I checked was twice as much as 45.
Shipping costs from B&H suck :( But this is a good deal if you need two.
If you only need one card of this speed then MemoryCity has the SanDisk 16GB Extreme Pro (95MB/s) on sale for $46 at the moment: http://www.memorycity.com.au/sandisk/21-sandisk-extreme-pro-…
I find the shipping from there pretty reasonable (fast tracked courier), but I usually like to bulk up my orders with several items at once. 10 of these 2 packs (20 cards, have a lot of friends?) will still only cost less than $40 shipping. I just bought a 16gb sandisk extreme pro from there for about $40 by itself :(
Yeah that's right. What I really meant was "Shipping costs from B&H for single items suck".
Have you seen the shipping and the packaging? It's godlike compared to anywhere else.
I've never ordered anything from them but that does not surprise me. I was lucky enough to be in New York at the start of the year and went to their mammoth super-store they have there. It's is 100% run by incredibly polite, incredibly efficient jews. The ceiling is lined with conveyors to take items from one counter to another, upstairs/downstairs etc. It honestly was like Willie Wonka's Chocolate Factory.
I knew that someone would read the word "jews" and immediately assume that I was being racist and neg me. I was merely sharing what I thought to be a relevant anecdote. Unless of course you're jealous that I got to go to one of the most amazing cities in the world - then neg away.
Preferably Orthodox Jews, just like the owners. Despite closing for every imaginable religious holiday (and they have a LOT), they've built the best camera store in the world. Kudos to them. (Their only reasonably close competitor, Adorama (also based in NY) is also owned by Orthodox Jews. I prefer B&H but both are good.)
Is there something special about these SDHC C10s - because they dont seem overly cheaper @ $31 each.
