Now there’s a memory card fast enough to keep up with your advanced DSLR: The SanDisk Extreme Pro CompactFlash card. With lightning-fast (up to 90 MB/s* read/write) speed, you’ll be able to capture more continuous burst shooting-and get the most out of your professional digital SLR camera. And with 32GB of storage, you’ll be ready for more RAW+JPEG and high-def video. This card is double the speed of the Sandisk Extreme IV Compact Flash card that we blogged about only a couple of weeks ago.

SanDisk engineered its Power Core™ Controller to take whatever your camera’s buffer can dish out. By distributing image data across the card more rapidly and efficiently, this card delivers professional performance.

Features of the 32GB Sandisk Extreme Pro Compact Flash Card:

CAPACITIES: 32GB give you more room to capture RAW+JPEG, sequential bursts and high-definition video
UDMA: UDMA 6 enabled (works in all UDMA modes)
POWER CORE CONTROLLER^TM & ENHANCED SUPER-PARALLEL PROCESSING^TM “ESP”: Was invented by SanDisk to increase the card’s performance level.
TEMPERATURE: Tested to perform from -25°C to 85°C (-13°F to 185°F)
SPECIFICATION: Meets CFA Specification Type I Card
DURABILITY: Shock protection and RTV silicone coating added inside for protection against moisture and humidity
WARRANTY: Backed by rigorous stress-testing procedures and our limited lifetime warranty.

* Up to 90MB/s read/write. Based on SanDisk internal testing: performance may be vary depending upon host device. **1 megabyte (MB) = 1 million bytes. X = 150 KB/sec. and 1 gigabyte (GB) = 1 billion bytes

Sandisk-Extreme-IV-CF-16GB I was just talking to a friend today about how much memory RAW files on Digital SLR Cameras take these days. We both use Canon 5D Mark IIs and on an 8GB card we can only capture around 300 RAW image files.

Memory prices are dropping all the time and in this case, with the holiday season coming around, it may be useful getting the biggest card you can afford.

Here’s one that a lot of our customers have been picking up lately -> Sandisk 16GB Compact Flash Extreme IV Memory Card. It features all the attributes of a pro card: fast, robust and has a limited lifetime warranty. Of course it’s made by the world’s leading memory card manufacturer which pretty much guarantees a quality experience.

Features of the Sandisk 16GB Compact Flash Extreme IV Card:

Professional-speed card featuring 45MB/s read/write speeds
UDMA Enabled – a process which data can be moved from a storage device very efficiently, without laboring the host device’s processor
Extremely durable card tested to work under impact and in harsh temperature conditions
Speed up your workflow by adding a FireWire Reader (sold separately)
Priority technical support both online and via phone
Solid reliability backed by a limited lifetime warranty

If you’re in Australia you can order it via our online store:
