As long as I use a 7D I will not touch another Kingston Elite Pro with a barge pole. I lost ~1.3GB of photos when one of them just died on me (it was brand new, first time I used it)... I have 2 such cards. They always hang if u switch data as the pics are written to the card. And the cards take such a long time to write data ~1 min for a sequence of 4 shots.
I have a transcend 4GB and a Lexar 1GB... the Lexar is the fastest card by a fair margin. The Transcend has been good... I will probably get another 2 x 4GB or 4 x 2GB... depending on which is more economical...
And actually I never travel with backups... I start shooting with smaller cards first and then go over to the 4GB... maybe I should use only 2GB all the way.... lose less photos if the card crashes...
