Sorry.. Bubble, I did see this test of yours...... The cards that your bought look great.

What I didn't say was .. wondering how I can test my older cards? Looking at your tests , they seem to be run by ATTO tech. Some kind of software ... I'll google this!

Thanks for the link

Replaced the yellow Lexar x3400 cards with the newer silver x3500 CFast cards and no problems whatsoever now with my pair of 1DX Mark 2 bodies. Still awaiting for the Sandisk cards to be supplied by Canon Europe.

Not about Lexar x3400 but may be interesting:

I could not wait for the SanDisk to arrive and purchased a Transcend CFX650 128GB and a Lexar Drive.

When checking the speed with Blackmagic Disk Speed Test on my iMac i got: Write 355 MB/s and Read 433 MB/s.
Today I received the Sandisk Extreme Pro 64 GB and the SanDisk Reader and i got: Write 207 MB/s and Read 424 MB/s.
Probably, this does not make a difference in camera but there is a very surprising and substantial difference in Write speed. When swapping the readers I got similar card speeds, the reader does not make the difference.

Until now, no problems with the Transcend but I did not shoot extensive Video.

When marketing the card..they always talk about read but not write.. the higher on write speed is better.

The seller recommended here, and on other video forums, is: greenshopping2011

I found the other seller, memorybay2000, more stubborn

i'll recommend sticking with greenshopping2011 due to high volume sold on the same card with excellent feedback. Plus, i tested the card so it is the real deal.

Just received 2x 64GB and 1 x 128 GB 3400X cards. Raw, jpg and 4k60 works great on all 3 cards. Ordered on 15 May, arrived 27 May to Toronto.

Highly recommend the cards...and greenshopping2011

The greenshopping2011 ebay offer for the Lexar 64gb CFast 2.0 card does not come packaged in Lexar packaging. The card comes with no packading. I'll pass because I got burned with the chinese Canon 1- Series batteries. Sticking with Sandisk CFast cards for now.

The greenshopping deal seems almost too good to be true but it sounds like the cards are working well for people. They don't even sell the 1066x CF card for as cheap as the CFast The 3400x card they are selling is now discontinued for the newer 3500x so maybe they got some inventory sell out on the old cards?

I will be testing out the 3500 cards in about 2 1/2 weeks, so I can report back then.

I had exact same thoughts first time I saw these eBay cards. Quick google search through video forums, where people have used these cards for months on more demanding cameras, turned up very positive reviews. I caved in and bought one Now, I wish I bought 2 because it seems that the seller raised the prices... For what I'm shooting at the moment, my "old" 1066x CF cards work great. Deeper buffer certainly helps and 1066x cards are OK for short 4K videos.

If these are fakes, I wish the seller was honest and sold them under a different name. They work great and there is no point of misleading people. Since these cards are the cheapest CFast cards on the market at the moment, he could still sell them at these prices no matter what brand they are. If they are real Lexar cards, even better for everyone jumping on these deals

The price keep going up...I wished if bought 2 or 3 since we will take delivery of the another mini Ursa to the fleet. Waiting 2 weeks for the card is no fun.

3400x was discontinued hence the price. Seem like they are clearing out all the OEM inventory.

I understand about the fuss about fake stuff from china but if you're reading from first hand experience from other user here that ACTUALLY BOUGHT
the product itself and even posted the test. That is not enough? man, you're really a tough cookie eh?

How many time you buy Sandisk or lexard from Amazon that give you option of OEM or retail packaging? BUT hey, the economy need folks like you to move the wheel. We need someone to pay 2x time more. More power to you dude.

Got my 64gb cfast card from them for $59.....works great. Time will tell on longevity, but I ended up also purchasing a 128gb card. That should arrive I am guessing in a week or two.

For those buying CFast cards from eBay, keep an eye on those cards and shoot to multiple cards for backup, until more testing is done with a 1DXII.
After shooting about 300 GB of photos and videos to this card, in last couple of weeks, just got my first corrupted file as reported previously by Guvnorth. LR nor DPP didn't recognize it, and camera shows a black screen with a yellow question mark. 2nd card, CF 1066x, recorded that file without problems...

The card in question is 3400x 128GB bought on eBay...
Guvnorth had a problems with a "genuine" 3400x CFast cards...

Please post if you get any corrupted files with a 3400x card, genuine or eBay...
