So despite initial tests, after an extended session with 5 separate cards I've discovered that these cards: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FL-083-KS actually can't read/write fast enough 100% of the time.

Has anyone else had this experience at all? This aside, could anyone who has the 550D let me know what cards they use for video on a regular basis please. No theory either, these should "theoretically work" but clearly don't.

Cheers,

Dave.

Yeah I had a look at the details on these and they are meant to manage 15MB/s, and the camera is only meant to need 8MB/s tops.

By the looks of it I will need to try something like those Secure SanDisk cards, if you have had good experiences that makes me want to give it a go. Will have to sell these others first I think. Probably keep 1 or 2 for photos as they are fine with that, and even with fairly long exposures.
