Quick update! I finally got a CFexpress type a reader for under 25$! So far I've been able to transfer a couple terabytes without any issues 😁 If you're interested check it out! amzn.to/3LUxnl7
I’ve bought some of the alternatives to Sony. Note these cards are VPG 200 (the 200 in the slate). This means the card ensures a minimum sustained write speed of 200 megabytes per second . The VPG400 address your statement @ 08:50.
What’s the difference in this card that says 200 vs the Nexstorage Pro version at 400? Not sure what that number means, it’s inside of a time code clacker.
A lot of good information here but we should all remember that the need for higher bit rates is not related to a target platform's bit rate. That information is needed for editing. The lower the bit rate you record in, the easier that image breaks apart in edit. For example, significantly raising shadows in an 8bit video would result in a great amount of noise versus no noise in a 16bit video. I'm certain there's an Arri video around here somewhere demonstrating this.
In sustained write you only have 300mb or so with that card, tho they have a "pro" series that have like 700mb sustained guaranteed at 250 bucks for 320gb, also they have a software to get back files if they got corrupted or else
I have the same card but when I used it, I have notice my fx30 camera freeze during recording. Have you or anyone experienced this issue using this card?
@@flproductions90 "USB Type-C connector supports SuperSpeed USB 10 Gbps (USB 3.2). A USB Type-C connector" Maybe it depends on the model, I believe the A1 and A9 III are 10 GBPS, I guess I didnt check all models.

I use this card on FX30 and FX6. No issues so far.
Thanks

I believe its just future proofing it to be vpg400 certified which is the new standard and a bit more heavy duty for pro work

Can you record 240fps on the fx3 with this cfast card ?
@@Jimmyburgoa yes you can! You basically can use all of the cameras capabilities

@@keema856 sorry to hear that! Ive been using it on my a7iv and a7rv nonstop with no issues so far. Maybe you can get a return or replacement?
Thank you
Based on the info you linked I don’t think they are a subsidiary of Sony. Sounds like it was formed by former Sony employees.
Angelbird has good price/quality balance
I bought one prograde type a
* 2.4 gigs per dollar.
I bought two of these and if they're a rip off I shall lay a curse upon you
still holding up on my end! hopefully you got the prime deal!
$0.41 per GB
Math was never my strong area 🥹
@@flproductions90 Still a great review, I ended up going with some SD cards because I already have a reader and I do not take video.
Nowhere to be find in Europe :(
Why would you use a CF express type A reader? Your camera works as well as a card reader so you just need a cheap USB-c cable.
@@greggeis918 the transfer speed from your camera is far slower than that of a dedicated card reader.
