HI Guys, I had problems with komputerbay x1000 128 gig, first, I couldn´t install it in my 5dM2. Second, Someone told me on the forum that many be is and old version x1050, and then I should to try to replace this card. However it looks see threads above, it´s a non reliable card, since cannot achieve what it suppose to reach > 90 m/s please do not buy kompubay 100x 128 gig card.

Got a 128gb card had to return it after 2 days because it no longer mounted on my computer and the camera couldnt format it. Got a replacement card and the same thing still happened. Not a reliable card.

It seems that 64gb are more reliable cards though.

I just found this brand on ebay. No mention on the internet. It is cheaper for me than ordering KomputerBay from the USA, but is it worth the risk?

They even have this line in their description: Max. Writing Speed 78MB/sec... I don't think that's what you should expect out of a 1000x CF

i wouldn't say that the KomputerBay is worth the risk. Considering this is riskier, it's just asking for trouble.

Agreed, 81 MB/s out of the box. Consistently.

Currently running 82.9MB/s continuous crop mode in 1920x1080@23.976, and it brings a tear to my eye.

I've got a komputerbay x1000 32gb for a couple months now. Has been working fine and fast and doing everything it is supposed to. I read a lot of complains on the 64 and 128 Gb models though.

creanimate · « **Reply #107 on:** October 09, 2013, 09:12:32 AM »

Hi, just wondering if anyone has tried out a Delkin udma7 1050x ?
They are labled as 120 mbs write speed (though not sure what that means in terms of actual sustained write speed)
I've had a search through this and other threads but can't seem to find any mention of them in relation to ML Raw suitability.
Cheers.

Komputerbay sent me an email, asking me to remove this post. So it's done.
The message says:

"Hello,

Please remove/revise your post on ML.

We kept you advised at all time about your shipment. We even provided you with tracking.

Amazon does not allow us to ship your item to an address other than what's advertised on Amazon. We are now making an exception against Amazon's rules.

You cards were corrupted as you have used them on a NON UDMA7 device."

4 out of 4 is really close to a 100%, not a good job KB

You don't expect them to have a return rate of 100% do you? That's just silly.

Here's the interesting part: If they refund him, or send him new cards, that means they totally know what they're trying to sell

No it doesn't, it means they have customer service if they replace or refund your faulty product.

I haven't seen much about the Lexar 128GB 1000x cards, probably because they are incredible expensive. But they might be worth saving up for if they are headache-free like the 64GB cards. Has anyone been shooting raw with these successfully?

according to the technicians at KB, they tested several readers to see which ones are ok, the Lexar's has issues with compatibility. They recommend the kingston FCR-HS3.

Glad I caught this. Ordered two 64GB KB 1000x off of amazon this morning with a LEXAR usb 3.0 reader... caught it in time to cancel that reader and order the right one. This is definitely a learning process for raw. Just double checked and the laptop I will be dumping to has USB 3.0.

Ok so pros - with this RAW business - I'll be shooting a short in the Spring - want to shoot it RAW. It will be about 18 minutes (I'll have to knock 3 minutes out for festival restrictions). It'll be a 3 day shoot... any idea how many external hard drives I'll need? I'm figuring two 2TB drives to hold the footage?
Would I be ok with (2) 64G 1000x and (1) 32G 1000X cards or would I need more? I understand it would be a constant dump rotation going.

2x 64GB 1000x, 2x USB 2 reader (alcor), still ticking, no corruption. It has been months now.

Max. Writing Speed 78MB/sec

Take what they say with a grain of salt, they swear up and down that the 64s should work as exfat on 7D and they do not. Something probably gets lost between sales/support and the engineering dept.

You can have 5x 64gb for the price of 1 lexar 128gb. Thats almost an hour and a half of raw without copying anything.

Komputerbay 64gb 1000x

first test out of the box, cold camera, just after formatting inside the camera (fat32)

Recap of write speeds in test:

97.5
80.3
105.1
87.0
108.4
100.6
119.7
119.7

I did the test with Live View OFF

I just have recorded one clip after the test (1920x1080 25fps RAW), it showed a recording speed of 91mb/s.

Hey, why do you measure/test in playback mode?
The difference hurts, but u better be realistic about it

Movie, switch to Live view after you turn on your cam. Then open up the ML menu and launch the test

hkarlsen · « **Reply #120 on:** November 08, 2013, 11:58:22 AM »

I have 4 KB 64GB which work great. Used them both for 1DC 4K and ML Raw. Just ordered 4 new ones. Havnt benchmarked them, but will try that to see how they perform in theory.

tferradans · « **Reply #121 on:** November 08, 2013, 03:01:41 PM »

So, it took a while but all my problems were sorted with Komputerbay. I received the replacements a couple days ago and was able to test them on the 5D3.

All four 64gb 1000x cards worked perfectly, and were able to get 2000+ frames at 1920x1280px raw resolution. If I ever have to buy cards again, they're my choice.

Yoda · « **Reply #123 on:** November 23, 2013, 04:04:59 PM »

Anyone know what the read/write speeds are for this card?

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/extreme-pro-64gb-compactflash-cf-memory-card/1614323.p?id=1219057246591&skuId=1614323&st=cf%20card&cp=1&lp=1

Just asking because I keep seeing everyone talk about 90mbs.....and I'm curious if better write speeds are available with these new breed of CF cards at are 160mbs?

I think you can´t get more resolution in a 7D without enable Crop Mode.
