SanDisk - CFast Cards

High-Speed CFast 2.0 Memory Card for Video Professionals

The CFast 2.0 memory card is a specialised storage solution designed to meet the high data rate requirements of professional cinematography and high-end photography. Utilising a SATA 3 interface, these cards provide significantly faster performance than legacy media types. While many modern systems are transitioning to the CFexpress card format, the CFast card remains the essential standard for many industry-leading cinema cameras. This technology ensures that high-bitrate files are recorded securely without the risk of buffer issues or dropped frames during critical shoots.
