I actually an 8gb card in my 5D2 (Transcend) gives 290 large RAW pics I think. That should give you a guide if you tend to take more in a single shoot.

Hi I have a MKII also and I use 16GB Transcend and SanDisk cards. I also travel with my macbook pro in case I need to download the images and free up my cards. Lately I have been fooling around with the Eye-Fi Pro wireless SD Card. You have to buy an SD - CF adapter to use it though. You can find both on Amazon.
