Great for 60D + Magic Lantern,

The speed of this card may be overkill for standard shooting/filming. However, I use Magic Lantern on my 60D, which is a firmware modification that runs off of the SD card. I noticed that my Transcend 32 GB Class 10 SDHC Flash Memory Card TS32GSDHC10E had a hard time keeping up with some of the functions of the additional software. I decided to give the faster card a try, and the functions (such as magic zoom and focus peaking) work much better now.
Of course, pulling pictures and video off the card is also quicker than with the Transcend. Although both cards are “Class 10,” the SanDisk is 50% faster than the Transcend.
