Which brands do you guys use? Any particularly good ones? I assume its best to use class 10 ones for fast read / write speeds?

Also, whilst we're on the subject, what do you guys store your memory cards in? Their original cases or do you have some kind of pouches?

How many do you carry for a shoot and what size? I've just bought 2 16Gb sandisk class 10 cards, It seems like overkill, but I plan to start shooting RAW soon, and assume the extra capacity will come in handy!

with my D800 shooting RAW a 16 GB card holds 200 shots. I am finding the 32 GB is more usable and if it is to be a heavy day I can load 2 32's (1 SD, 1 CF) and have 64 GB good for about 800 shots which is really great for a full day shoot.

Mmmm I might need to rethink my card capacity then! I Took 650 shots at a race meeting last Sunday! in JPEG though...

That's what I have, 2 16's. I have the d7000 that allows me to have two cards in at one time and I have never come close to filling one of them up. I shoot RAW also, but I do spend my weekends at tournaments and want to make sure I have plenty of room.
With the second card serving as an overflow then I can get around 800 shots combined

What do you guys carry your cars in? I've found a beat little pouch on eBay for $2.00... Has individual slots for each memory card...
