SanDisk 128GB Extreme Pro CompactFlash Card 160MB/s UDMA7

The SanDisk Extreme Pro SDCFXPS-128G-A46 is a 128GB CompactFlash card for photographers using compatible CF cameras who need fast burst shooting and transfers, with read speeds up to 160 MB/s and write speeds up to 150 MB/s.

Recommended For

• Photographers using a compatible CompactFlash DSLR who shoot sports, wildlife, or other fast action can use the card’s burst-oriented write performance to help clear the camera buffer between continuous-shot sequences; actual performance depends on the camera.
• Videographers recording Full HD or supported 4K modes on a CompactFlash-compatible camera can consider it for workflows that need a guaranteed minimum sustained write speed of 65 MB/s; check the camera’s requirements and recording mode.
• Photographers who already own a compatible CF camera and want one 128GB card for RAW/JPEG shoots can use it to store images without frequently changing cards during a session.
• Photographers transferring files from a compatible CF card to a computer can benefit from read speeds of up to 160 MB/s when their card reader and host support the card’s performance.

Real-World Use Scenarios

• During sports or wildlife bursts, a photographer using a compatible CompactFlash camera can keep shooting while the camera writes images; the card may help the camera clear its buffer sooner, but the camera’s own buffer and card interface still affect results.
• For a long photo assignment, the 128GB capacity gives a CompactFlash camera room for many RAW or JPEG images before the photographer needs to swap cards; the number of shots depends on image size and file settings.
• When recording Full HD or compatible 4K video on a camera that accepts CompactFlash, the VPG-65 rating is intended to support steady recording at the card’s guaranteed minimum sustained write speed; actual format support also depends on the camera and recording settings.
• After a shoot, a photographer can move images to a computer using a compatible CompactFlash reader; the card’s high maximum read speed can help with transfers, though the reader and computer also affect copy time.
• For someone maintaining an older DSLR or video camera with a CompactFlash slot, this card can provide a higher-capacity replacement or spare; confirm the camera supports the card’s capacity and UDMA mode before relying on it.
