Unless you are a pure hobbyist or on a tight budget, we highly recommend getting a UHS-II card. They aren’t significantly more expensive anymore, and you’ll be happy you did, even if just for the decreased transfer-to-computer times. Speed Class

SanDisk Extreme PRO CFast Card 2.0 Memory Cards For Cameras

My personal view is that some people on this forum (I am not talking about the last two posters) make claims about CFast card reliability that do not jive with what we know about storage media failure generally or with complaints about CFast failure across the internet. Michael McCaffrey wrote:Im having the same issue. I cannot get the Angelbird 1TB card to read in any computer. Other cards work fine. Maybe its a firmware issue. I can update that, but still need to somehow save the existing footage on the card.In 1995 a group of 11 companies banded together in the hopes of promoting the adoption of a new specificationof memory card. Among the companies involved wereHP, Apple, SanDisk, 3COM, Eastman Kodak Company, IBM, NEC and Canon⁹,¹⁰.Along with this new format, they hoped to create an industry standard for flash based memory cards. Over the following years these standards would ensure that all memory cards under the CompactFlash Association would be made to the same high standards. Of these standards was VPG Profile 3. VPG Profile 3 was announced by the CompactFlash Association on September 10ᵗʰ 2015. Our CFast Card Reader offloads files from CFast 2.0 memory cards using a USB-C 3.2 Gen 2, up to 10 Gb/s connectivity. If you’re shooting super high-res photos on a DSLR or shooting 4K videos which eats up tons of space in no time, you would require a flash memory with not just higher capacity but also much faster write speeds. While premium SD cards to aid photographers for this need exist, low-end SD cards leave a lot to be desired for high-end photo and video creative professionals. If you are using a camera with CFast card slot (like BMPCC 6K, BMPCC 4K, Canon EOS-1D X Mark II, EOS C300 Mark II, EOS C700 FF and Canon XC15), you will need a fast CFast card, and an additional reliable CFast card reader to ensure faster data transfer speeds. But not every CFast card reader will work well with CFast card. Like all memory cards, speed and performance are different between the different brands, and some CFast card readers can offer better performance than the others.

Don’t worry about CFexpress Type C quite yet. No camera uses it and no manufacturer is producing on the standard yet. VPG 400 https://www.sandisk.co.uk/about/media-center/press-releases/2012/sandisk-announces-development-of-cfast-memory-cards CFexpress cards are typically also more durable than SD cards. More importantly, they’re a great feature for those who shoot video; now that high-bitrate (even RAW in some cases) 4K and 8K video is becoming commonplace, the CFexpress standard is the best option to make the most of that data. CFexpress Type C This is a far more common format with a more modest price as a result. It has most recently been widely adopted by Nikon in its Z series of mirrorless full-frame cameras, Canon in some EOS R bodies as well as the C300 Mark III and C500 Mark II, Panasonic in the S1/S1R and GH6, DJI in the Ronin 4D, and RED in the V-Raptor 8K VV. Because of the size of the cards, many cameras only feature a single CFexpress card slot, with UHS-II SD filling in as the second slot — only the Nikon D6 and Z9 (and D5 with firmware upgrade) have dual CFexpress Type B slots.Also a product of the Compact Flash Association, CFexpress is hailed as the successor to CFast and XQD. Three tough CFexpress versions were announced in February 2019, types A to C. These are distinguished by their physical size, A being the smallest and C being the largest. The theoretical performance increases in parallel with the physical dimensions of the card (Type A @1GB/s, Type B @2GB/s Type C @4GB/s). Many devices that were designed for QXD cards could be firmware upgraded to accept CFexpress cards. Currently Holdan offers WISE CFX Type B cards at 128, 256 and 512GB capacities.

Yes, I would recommend one record in both places for client shoots, if you have the resources, in the BMPCC4K and on the BMVA12G7 for example if your SDXC card supports the resolutions and frame rate. I view it as insurance in the event you have unexpected issues. I don’t think that there are a lot of companies that can afford to maintain their current pricing until late November, especially companies whose sales depend on discretionary spending, which is most of the camera and camera accessory market. Our economies are experiencing serious economic damage. The number of people who have lost their jobs is staggering. Assuming that I’m typical of people who are reasonably comfortable financially, those people are thinking twice about spending money on things that they don’t actually need.I think the sales this year that coincide with the American Thanksgiving holiday in late November may be a record sales volume as companies try their best to recover sales volumes from the current downturn in sales related to the dramatic decrease in activity in the film and video sectors. With SD cards, we want to look at several attributes: Photo from the SD Association SDHC Versus SDXC CFexpress is the latest standard from the CompactFlash Association. Originally launched in 2017 and using the XQD form-factor, the cards utilized two PCIe 3.0 lanes along with NVMe 1.2 for low latency and overhead. In 2019, the CFexpress 2.0 standard was announced, with an upgraded NVMe 1.3 protocol; two new form factors, “Type A” and “Type C” were announced, with the existing XQD form factor becoming “Type B.” Image via Explora
