Good alternative for normal photographers

Bought for my EOS 50D this memory card. Previously, a SanDisk Extreme 3 with 4GB in there. Subjectively, I notice little difference. The behavior of the camera when saving the pictures in burst mode is similar to previously. Irregularities in shape and frame rate are less likely to be due to the memory card than the camera itself, at least they occur irregularly at two cards. The frequency is in these moments but still close to 2 frames / sec.

When copying via USB 2.0, the data rate is an average of 18.5MB / s, with the SanDisk only 17,4MB / s. Strangely, the map can be, as opposed to SanDisk, describe the computer running Windows 8 nor formatting. Therefore, I could not determine the writing speed. However, this can also be used at the card reader, a slightly older model of the brand Zignum.

Overall, I get a large memory card for a good price that fully meets my requirements. Now she has to prove itself in everyday life only.
