  • Now that's EXTREME!!

  • Can someone educate me how this is better in spec than this.
    This says 1785 speed?

    • +2

      Write speed on this is almost 50% more at 1200 MB/s vs 800-850MB/s on the Angelbird.

    • +2

      In real world scenarios there won’t be a difference. The max speed of the Angelbird is only touching on a few cameras limits, so spending more for less capacity is a waste.

      What are you using it for?

      • I am thinking of gifting it to a friend who has an R5. She doesn't shoot 8K RAW as such but i wonder if it's due to lack of cards at her disposal. Don't know if she will still shoot that as you need a strong pc to edit.

        • +1

          I have an R5 and one of these cards, the R5 doesn’t come close to the max speed. No problems recording 8K25.

        • There's a lot of reasons to not record at 8k raw. Space will be the main one. Back-up, Storage, Recording, Editing.

          CFexpress 1.0 [400MB/sec. or higher]

          R5 will Bottleneck around 400MB/sec. So I would go the card that has more Storage Capacity.

          Isn't it about 100GB for every 5mins of Recording at 8k raw. 256GB gets about 13 minutes of 8k raw footage.

          I'd run out of storage on my back-up drives, Laptop & Cards before I finish an event.

          • @stickymoo: 20GB/min, about 333MB/s, or 2666mbps. That's a lot! Which codec able to chew so fast?

      • If camera able to make use of such speed, I think faster card does helps to clear cache sooner and/or enable longer continuous burst, probably even unlimited continuous burst but something else might break…

        • With electronic shutters and 30fps for stills you want a very fast card.

    • Wait for it to go on sale

    Don't buy cards from Scamazon, go to a camera store to be sure you're not getting fake copies.

    • Never seen any reports of fake CFExpress cards. They would be significantly more difficult and expensive to fake than microSD cards assuming it’s possible at all.

      • Well you've never been a professional photographer, has happened plenty of times and is a royal pita losing irreplaceable memories.

        Amazon themselves apparently underwent considerable efforts some years back attempting to stop the practice which was appreciated by the photo community but achieved very little.

          Been a pro for almost twenty years. Have bought SanDisk CFE from Amazon with no issues at all.

        • +1

          Haha sure mate.

          As I said, SD and microSD cards get faked all the time, CFE don’t.

  • Scandisk CFE overheat significantly (around 40C difference to AB or Delkin) - would avoid if you intend to use during summer recording video - or even a warmer winters day

    • A camera that overheats with a CFE that overheats. What a combo!
