Testing the latest crop of U3/UHS-1 SDXC cards in a 6D

I need to upgrade to faster storage medium for my 6D.
If anyone is using one of the newer U3/UHS-1 cards, would you mind posting a simple test for me.
1.  Type of card.
2.  At 4.5 frames/second, please specify the number of RAW (not mRAW or sRAW) images that the camera will complete before it slows down (buffer full).
3. If possible measure the camera reduced frame rate after the buffer fills.  Count 10 frames after the buffer is full while watching a clock with a second hand.  (12 seconds for 10 frames is 1.2 frames/sec).
4.  How long does the buffer take to empty after you release the shutter button.
I tested my Patriot LX series 32GB class 10 SDHC cart and had the following results:
14 frames at a full 4.5 frames/sec.
20 seconds for the next 10 frames = .5 frame/second.
32 seconds to clear the buffer after shutter release (light off).
I was shooting the wall clock I was using to time with for this sequence.
I'm looking at the Transcend 64GB U3/UHS-1 (claimed write speed of 60MB/sec.).
Thanks for taking the time to test and posting the results.
6D, 17-40L, 70-200L 2.8 IS, 50 1.4, 85 1.8, 50 2.5 macro
7D, 17-55 2.8 IS, 60 2.8 macro

Hi Cicopo,  thanks for your input.
I had found this website earlier today.  The author is kinda biased towards Nikon (7 different models) and only one Canon.  Never the less still an awful lot of useful information presented.  Looking at the Nikon D600 tests. I suspect it and the Canon 6D are very similar in the speed of their UHS-1 interface.
Another interesting site is:
http://www.thessdreview.com/hardware/flash-drives/samsung-pro-microsdxc-uhs-1-u1-card-review-64gb/3/
The author has done in depth testing on a number of the newer SDXC cards.  He concludes his articles with a "real world write test" using a Canon 6D (lucky me).  The test is fairly simple, count the number of frames @ 4.5 frames/sec until the buffer fills and then time the buffer offload.
What I got from both sites is the new Samsung Pro offers the biggest bang for the buck (2 more frames/sec in the 6D. before the buffer fills over the SanDisk Extreme).  According to their website the cards are hardened much like the SanDisks, but doesn't say anything about ECC circuitry.
If anyone has any input or opinion of the Samsung Pro vs the SanDisk Extreme please do.

  • Can the Droid Charge read/write 64GB micro-SDXC cards?

    Can the Droid Charge read/write 64GB micro-SDXC cards?
    (or any micro-SDXC card, for that matter)
    Thanks in advance!   

    Hi SandraW,
    Thanks WCMack for your posting. I have been able to verify that the Samsung Charge has an onboard memory of 2GBs and a capacity to carry a 32GB memory card. It cannot old a 64GB card. I hope this helps. 
    Thanks and have a great day!

    Hi.  I have a Dell PC running Windows 7 64 bit.  I have the latest version of Adobe Reader,  It worked yesterday.  Today I have job training to do that is due tomorrow morning and I can't open PDF files.  I have to open a guide and read it and take a test tomorrow.  I have deleted and reinstalled the application.  I have rebooted.  I have made sure my PDF's are associated with the program.  Every PDF on my computer won't open and I get the same error message.  It simply says Attempt to access invalid address.  How can I fix this?  Thanks.

    Hi Don,
    I have seen this issue fixed for some users by modifying the following registry key:
    The key is "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management" MoveImages
    Set the key to 1 instead of 0 then reboot the machine.
    In case you still face the issue try the following registry key change:
    The only thing you have to do is rename the following key at the REGEDIT, and everything will be fine !!
    BEFORE:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.exe
    AFTER:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.old
    Note: Please take a backup of the registry before attempting this change.

  • How do I choose a specific version of IOS?  I'm doing app testing and I need to test a version other than what iTunes provides as the latest

    I am testing applications and I want to run an IOS version that is not the latest version offered by iTunes.  ex: Plug in my iPod Touch and the latest version of IOS being offered in the update option is version 4.2.  I need to test v4.1.  How can I download and downgrade my device?

    Downgrading iOS is not supported by Apple. You may find workarounds on other web sites if you do a web search for such information, e.g. "downgrade iOS". You can links to Apple's direct downloads for iOS 4.1 here, among other places:
    http://www.redmondpie.com/download-ios-4.1-final-version-for-iphone-4-3gs-3g-ipo d-touch/
    though there are no guarantees as to how long Apple will continue to have those available.

  • Just installed the latest Canon printer software update (V 3.2) from the App store. Canon Pixma MX850 will not print. Dialog says job stopped at the server - no pages found. Utilities, print test page works. Printing via Airport.

    Just installed the latest Canon printer software update (V 3.2) suggested by the App store in effort to get printer working after OS update. Canon Pixma MX850 will not print. Dialog says job stopped at the server - no pages found. Utilities, print test page works. Attempting to print via Airport from a MacBook Pro. Also from a Mac Pro via ethernet. Both worked before updating to Yosemite. Canon Pro 9000 Mk 2 works via USB. Tried installing driver 10.84 from OS 10.9 as suggested by PAHU; no luck.

    The "stopped at server - no pages found" message would suggest an image with the print file that is created by the printer driver on the MacBook Pro. But if the Mac Pro is getting the same message then that is unusual.
    To rule out a couple of causes I would try connecting the MacBook Pro directly to the MX850 by USB cable. This action should result in a new printer for the USB connection being created automatically. If not then you may need to manually create it as you won't be able to use the existing printer that exists for the network connection. With the new printer created see if this will let you print without error.
    If this USB connected printer also fails with the same message then try a reset of the printing system. Note that this action will also remove the Pro 9000 from Printers & Scanners so you will have to add it and the MX850 again.

  • Every since I updated to the latest Camera Raw and Photoshop I have the following issue: when I finish the photo in Raw and bring it into Photoshop I have white squares in the Photo. If I crop the photo the white square disappears until I zoom to enlarge

    Every since I updated to the latest Camera Raw and Photoshop I have the following issue: when I finish the photo in Raw and bring it into Photoshop I have white squares in the Photo. If I crop the photo the white square disappears until I zoom to enlarge it then the white square reappears. I do not believe the squares are saved

    Does turning off »Use Graphics Processor« in the Performance Preferences and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue?

    In Camera Raw? The Workflow options are now responsible for actual image size. See Julianne Kost's blog post. (There's a video that discusses this in detail at the beginning there as well.)

  • Does SAP test and certify MII against the latest operating system patches?

    Does SAP test and certify MII against the latest operating system patches?

    If by latest OS patches you mean - does SAP retest MII every time MS puts out a new patch or critical update, then the answer would be no (probably not overly surprising).
    This would be more impacted in 11.5 because of IIS and the only-Windows operating system, but with v12.x and the platform/OS combinations supported by NetWeaver, MII is really abstracted from the O/S through NetWeaver so that would be the angle to pursue with regard to re-testing and validation.  I most assuredly cannot speak to the validation process for NetWeaver pertaining to operating system patches and updates, but I would assume OS service pack levels would be dealt with according to release cycles, but it would be very reactive for every patch that comes along for each of the operating systems in the matrix (http://service.sap.com/pam).

  • I am doing browser testing for the different firefox versions. Shall I use only the latest version to cover the lower versions?

    I heard that if i test using the latest firefox version which is 32, it would be sufficient and I do not need to test the older versions e.g., 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31.
    Is that a correct assumption?

    You may want to test with the Firefox 24 ESR and Firefox 31 ESR version as those are still supported with security updates.
    Firefox 24.8.0 and 31.1.0 ESR:

    The 3.6.6 release was pushed out so fast that there wasn't a Firefox 3.6.6 Beta version for testing. All the testing of 3.6.6 was done in the Namoraka-pre nightly versions.

  • From where i can buy the latest Test Executive ???

    I am looking for the latest Testexecutive Toolkit for Labview (Example: 5.1.1)for free of Cost or for Buy. What ever is possible.
    Thank for Tips from where i can pick this tool

    Hi,
    NI Germany was correct, Testexecutive is no longer available, this was a tookit available for LabVIEW 5.1 users.
    The natural replacement for Testexecutive is Teststand, which is not a toolkit for LabVIEW but rather a development enviroment by itself. So, you can look at Teststand on the following link :
    http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/nioc.vp?cid=1459〈=US
    I don't believe you need to contact NI USA, I strongly believe NI Germany should be able to help you on this wth no problem.

  • When trying to edit a photo, it disappears (black screen) or screen is full of lines. Is this a bug with the latest software update?

    After updating with the latest software, when trying to edit a photo, it disappears (black screen) or screen is full of lines. If I blindly crop or edit the photo, when I exit edit mode, those changes have been made, but obviously this is unacceptable. Is this a bug with the latest software update?

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/ Library/ Caches...
    5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help: As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
