Compact Flash Extreme IV

SanDisk this week introduced its SanDisk Extreme IV line of CompactFlash digital media cards – which it calls the “world’s fastest” – as well as debuted new high-capacity 4GB SD digital media. The Extreme IV cards, designed for professional photographers who require high-performance for medium format and high-end digital single lens reflex (SLR) cameras, are available in capacities of up to 8GB; they deliver minimum read and write speeds of 40MB/sec, which the company claims are the fastest flash memory cards in the world. SanDisk also introduced its new SanDisk Extreme FireWire reader that can transfer images from the SanDisk Extreme IV cards to a computer at up to 40MB/sec. The cards are available in 2GB, 4GB and 8GB capacities for $160, $320, and $640.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest.

On thursday we went to the premiere Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest. One of Marijke’s best friends came and stayed over. She took a rather large package of candy with her (for us), she’s a doll. After a big walk-about, we ate Pappardelle (large Fettuccine’s) which I prepared for Marijke and Elkie. At eight o’clock the movie started. Men I was impressed by the atmosphere of the whole movie, the gorgeous locations, the music and the first-rate special effects! The movie was a lot darker then the previous one, and one of my favorite actors, Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) was doing what he’s best at, taking care of… well his selfish-self! The movie is a bit like the Disney attraction, a roller-coaster ride of action. The movie neatly ended to be followed by Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End, which we’ll certainly see in 2007! For my english literature I’ve read a book from Robert Louis Stevenson called Treasure Island, I remembered a fragment from the book which was used in the movie: Yo Ho Ho And A Bottle Of Rum.


Aye, Savvy

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest

On thursday we’re going to Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest. I’ll let you know how the movie was! The first movie Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (july 9, 2003) was one of my favorite movies of that year!In the second part of this triology: Captain Jack Sparrow (played by Johnny Depp) owes an unpaid debt to Davy Jones and his army of sea-phantoms…his soul. Now, he must find a way to save himself from becoming one of them, and suffering forever. This movie will be followed by the last part of the triology: Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End (2007).

CompactFlash Extreme III

I’ve bought a SanDisk CompactFlash Extreme III card for my Canon EOS 350D. The Extreme III is designed for serious photographers who demand one of the fastest and most durable CompactFlash cards on the market. That’s because only the Extreme III CompactFlash cards feature innovative ESP Technology for the best performance. ESP stands for “Enhanced Super-Parallel Processing”. Simply put, it means you are getting the fastest read/write speeds available – an amazing minimum 20MB per second sequential read and write speed – speed you’ll definitely appreciate whenever you find yourself shooting in AI Servo AF (*) modus and storing pictures in harsh environments, extreme temperatures or at high altitudes.(*) AI Servo AF is an autofocusing system designed exclusively for Canon EOS cameras. It uses a form of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to determine the speed and direction of moving subjects, then focuses the camera lens to a predicted position (Focus Prediction Function) in order to increase the probability of obtaining a sharp photograph.
