Specifications
Pros & Cons
👍 Pros
- 120MB/s read speed accelerates card-to-computer transfers, reducing post-shoot ingest time for large RAW file batches.
- VPG-20 certification guarantees sustained 20MB/s writes, preventing dropped frames during continuous video recording.
- The two-card bundle provides 128GB total capacity, enough for extended shoots without swapping media.
- RTV silicone coating and rigorous shock/vibration testing make these cards reliable for outdoor and event shooting conditions.
- Included multi-format card reader eliminates the need to purchase a separate CF reader for file transfer.
👎 Cons
- Write speed of 85MB/s is below the fastest UDMA 7 CF cards available, which can limit buffer clearing speed on high-resolution bodies like the D810.
- CompactFlash is a legacy format — newer camera bodies have moved to CFexpress or SD, limiting the long-term utility of this investment.
- The bundled card reader uses USB 2.0 speeds, which will bottleneck the cards' 120MB/s read capability during transfers.
- 64GB capacity per card is modest for photographers shooting uncompressed RAW, yielding roughly 1,000–1,400 frames per card depending on sensor resolution.
- No included carrying case for the cards, which is an oversight for a bundle marketed to working photographers.
