While SDXC slots are still quite a familiar sight on modern camera bodies, CFexpress formats are steadily taking over as a much faster, more robust choice, especially for professional photography and videography. Especially as ultra-high-res videography increases in popularity (8K, anyone?), the choice is easy. The ProMaster 512 GB Rugged Cine SDXC card has all the bells and whistles on the label—UHS-II speed class 3, U3, V90 video speed class—and offers 300 MB/s read speed and 260 MB/s write speed.
The 1.3 TB CFexpress Type B Velocity Cine V2? Over five times those speeds. And that’s at a sustained pace! The maximum possible write speed for the CFexpress card is about 6.5 times greater than its SDXC cousin.*
Newly upgraded to PCIe 4.0, the ProMaster Velocity Cine V2 CFexpress cards are a great balance of speed, capacity, and price. Despite costing hundreds of dollars less than some competitors, the ProMaster card performed better than almost all equivalent cards in recent independent testing (click the link to check it out).
If you’re looking to dramatically improve the performance of your memory (well, your camera’s memory, anyway), you would do well to consider this card. Click here or visit a Mike’s Camera near you to grab one (or a few) today!
