Karta Exascend Element Pro Cfexpress 4.0 A 512GB

In the field, a wildlife photographer swaps cards between bursts, trusting the Exascend Element Pro to keep up with 30 fps RAW capture on a Sony Alpha 1. Back in the studio, a cinematographer records 8K ProRes to the same card inside an FX6, knowing the sustained write speed will not stutter. The Element Pro CFexpress 4.0 Type A card delivers 1800 MB/s read and 1700 MB/s write, with a sustained write of 1600 MB/s, ensuring every frame lands without dropped data. Built on industrial-grade 3D TLC NAND, it offers 512GB capacity and 1200 TBW endurance for years of demanding shoots.
