I was going to give this a 4 or 4.5 stars but changed my mind. So we all agree these cards are smallest and fastest in their category and only reason I was going to take a star(or a half) off was due to ridiculous price. However, after forgetting one of this card in my pant pocket and had it one through full cycle of PERMANENT PRESS Wash and HEAVY DUTY Dryer and STILL working like charm made me change my mind. Its been few months since the incident and the card is working perfectly fine, so the they are really 'TOUGH' and deserves the premium.

Sony compatibility & quality

Purchased this card for our Sony FX6 camera. Allows for all the frame rates/speeds. Having a Sony card gives confidence in recording and storage. The card has a rugged outer case and fits perfectly into the camera slot and the Sony card reader. The 160GB size seems like a good trade-off between cost and storage capacity.

Very high price but no alternatives...

I bought the Sony CF type A memory card to allow for the fastest image download on a Sony a1. Very expensive and slower than the type B cards.

great quality, durable and functions perfectly

I was stupid and bought this card at the same time I bought the Sony a1 knowing that I needed a CF express type A card. I later realized after some research that the ProGrade CF express type A cards work just as well in the Sony a1 but at a fraction of the price. Learn from my mistake and save yourself some money!

How much footage could I fit on a 160GB card with the Sony A7siii using 120fps S&Q mode? Seems like it's the main purpose of this card so just wondering how to calculate how much footage will fit and if I opt for the 80GB or 120GB. Cheers.
Asked by: Brad
The a7s iii shoots H.264/XAVC S 4:2:2 10-Bit 119.88p at 280 Mb/s. This gives nearly 70 mins of recording on a 160GB card. Shooting H.264/XAVC S 4:2:0 8-Bit at 200 Mb/s gives 88 mins of recording on a 160GB card.
