Hi guys,

Recently just successfully RMA a Lexar CF card, would like to share my experience on it, and share some unscientific testing on some of the memory cards that I have been shooting with.
Hope it helps, especially if you're in the market for a good and reliable memory card.

Welcome, hope it helps!

Thanks. Good article.

Thank you! Hope it helps.

Did you try perform the read / write test by connect your camera to computer with usb c cable?

I did not. I never use my camera to transfer photos directly to PC via USB c.
I have a dedicated card reader.

Connect camera to PC with USB c will be more accurate to measure the read / write speed of the memory card inside your camera.
USB c cable also able to charge the battery, I seldom use canon charger now a day.

thanks of your valuable blog experience sharing.

I have similar experience few years back using SD Card.

That time bought 2 x Kingston SD Card (Red color with 90mb/s read 80mb/s) use it on Canon 80D. One of it have some writing lagging issue during photoshoot, then i bring the problem sd card to official distributor to claim warranty (they will ask you the shop purchase receipt & the SD card packaging which have their distributor sticker on it).

After 2~3 months, distributor contact me and replace a new model SD Card for me (during that time Kingston release CANVAS React version)
