OK, did a test with the Lexar 1000+ and Transcend 1000+ cards on the EOS-1D X.
They perform almost identically. You can shoot around 48-49 raw photos @ 12 fps before the buffer is filled, and they both clear the buffer again in about 8 seconds.
I also tried a SanDisk Extreme (not Pro) 60 mb/s card. Here I got 41 raw photos before the buffer hit the limit and it was cleared in 14 seconds. A notable notice in speed, but not surprising of course.
Transfer from card to computer with a Lexar 3.0 usb card reader was about the same with Transcend being every is so slightly faster.
So with the Transcend being quite a bit cheaper, I now understand Lars\' endorsement of the card.
