Are RED 8GB CF Card Prices going to drop?

[Julio Quintana]

With the introduction of the new 16GB cards, and the general advancement of technology, when can we expect the cost of the 8GB cards to go down?

 

[Julio Quintana]

Is this a stupid question or just one that only Red can answer? I'm just on the market for some 8GB cards and I don't want to buy them right before their price drops in half.

Lexar cards are still around $150 so prices may stay where they are for awhile.

I bought lexars for 2/3 of that inkl VAT...

 

[R. Schorman]

Well technically so did I with the rebate offered, but I believe it is over now.

 

[Gunleik Groven]

Still lower price here now (ca 90 US dollar), no vouchers involved

Which Lexar cards specifically are you guys using? And are the framerate limits the same as RED's cards?

I found the card, but it isn't so cheap anymore. Sucky...

 

[Gunleik Groven]

the 300x cards. They are the same as REDs. I dont know if some other QC is involved, though. Mine works fine, as does most/all others I've heard about

What about the Lexar 300x Professional 16 Gb versions. Have anyone tried those yet?
