best buy canon camera 7d image
Akuhei Ryo
I plan to buy a Canon 7D and needed to know what kind of card it uses, can anyone help? And maybe the best prices for the card?
Answer
The 7D uses CF cards, the same ones used by the 5D and 1D Canon cameras
All this information is on the Canon website. Is there a reason you did not check there first?

What's the best CF card to use for a canon 7d camera?
Jackie
I just bought a canon 7d and was wondering what is the best cf card to get. I've never used a cf card. (I just upgraded from a t2i) I saw a card on amazon for a Lexar 16gb 600x for $113.00. Is this what I should get or would something a little cheaper do the job. I'm a new photographer so I need some help here. Thanks!
Answer
I'm using the same Lexar cards as well as the SanDisk Extreme cards in my 7D and 5D Mark II with no problems. So the short answer is "Yes, that card will do the job." However for the record; it is also worth mentioning that there are cheaper and equally good CF cards brands such as Delkin, Kingston, or Transcend from which to choose.
You also don't have to buy the fastest cards from these manufacturers because nothing above 30MB/s is going to make a difference in the cameras ability to capture images. Where all that extra speed will make a difference is the time spent downloading images from that card using the CF card reader of your choice. USB 3.0 and Firewire readers are the fastest download options available at this time but, most computers are still shipping with nothing more than USB 2.0 ports which work just fine.
One other note...You might want to check on the price for 8GB cards. If you're shooting RAW, an 8GB card still allows over 250 images or over 1000 images if you are shooting JPEG. Many working professionals, particularly those using cameras like the 7D which have only one card slot, prefer working with several smaller cards versus one big one because it prevents them from putting all their eggs in one basket. In other words, having one card with 250 out of 1000 images fail isn't nearly as disasterous as having one card with all 1000 images of a trip, wedding, or other project become corrupt, leaving you with nothing. It's just a thought. In my case, I run mostly 8GB cards but, I've also got the four 16GB cards I mentioned earlier.
