As a creative who often has to travel for my clients, the amount of gear and accessories needed to get a job done can often lead to a lot of headaches when trying to get everything connected to my laptop, especially if I'm shooting large campaigns where I need to ingest a ton of data.
Building upon its original CreateMate Memory Card Case, which combines memory card protection, organization, and file transferring, Pgytech has released a new version that supports CFexpress memory cards.
Nextorage's NX-B2PRO CFexpress Type B memory cards promise high-level read and write performance, including maximum read and write speeds of 3,900 and 3,600 MB/s, respectively.
Wise, a member of the Compact Flash Association (CFA), has joined the USB4 generation with its new Wise RD-40CXB CFexpress 4.0 Type B card reader.
The Pgytech CreateMate is a weather-resistant memory card case that doubles as a memory card reader, so your cards and the ability to offload data from them are never apart.
OWC has announced its new Innergize software for memory cards, new memory card readers, and its new Jellyfish XT Network-Attached Storage (NAS) Solution.
Arrotrack Technology has announced a new fully customizable remote NAS cloud storage system called Storaxa.
Lexar has announced a new higher-capacity CFexpress Type A card. Categorized into its Gold line, the 320GB card promises up to 900 MB/s read speeds and 800 MB/s write speeds.
Lexar has revealed the pricing of its new Gold Series CFexpress Type A cards and while it is more expensive than both Sony and ProGrade Digital equivalents, in testing the new card handily outperforms both.
ProGrade Digital has announced the new PGM0.5 mobile card reader. It features dual SD and microSD slots that it says produces comparable performance to its full-size readers but is much smaller and better able to support mobile creators.
Photographers and videographers who shoot large campaigns leave sets with a ton of data that needs to be ingested, backed up, and organized for editing. For successful businesses, one measly SD card slot on the back of a computer doesn't cut it. For them, a multi-card ingestion device is a must, and right now the SanDisk Professional Pro-Dock 4 is absolutely unbeatable in that department.
After reading my story on its $300 SD Express card, Ritz Gear reached out and insisted that I try it for myself. The company even included an SD Express card reader in an attempt, I assume, to show its value. After testing, I am at a loss: this is so much worse than I ever thought it could be.
ProGrade Digital just released the first CFexpress Type A cards that aren't made by Sony and while they aren't "cheap" by any stretch of the imagination, they are more affordable than Sony's offering. But does that discount come at a performance cost?
Being an early adopter of any technology usually comes with a hefty price tag, and CFExpress is no exception. The cards themselves are up to 3x to 6x more expensive than comparable SD cards, and the card readers out there can get pretty pricey on the high end. Enter Lexar.
Memory manufacturer ProGrade Digital has revealed its latest pair of memory card readers, a brand new Thunderbolt 3 CFExpress/XQD card reader with "revolutionary" transfer speeds, and an updated dual-slot card reader that pairs an SD slot with CFExpress.
If you're a photographer who's tired of carrying dongles around for your newer MacBook Pro, the Kolude KD-K1 Keyhub is an unusual new keyboard that could help ease your pain. It's essentially a keyboard and USB hub in one device, and it has a built-in SD card reader for easily accessing your photos to work on them.
Earlier today, Sony revealed what they're calling the world's fastest smart multifunction USB hub: a smart USB-C hub designed for "enhanced workflow efficiency for photographers, videographers and creators."
The storage startup ProGrade Digital has announced its latest card reader, the SD Dual Slot USB 3.1 Gen 2 card reader. Files on each card can be transferred simultaneously at speeds of up to 10Gb/s, or 1.25GB/s.
It goes without saying, but we'll say it anyway: pro photographers deal with a lot of photos. Each assignment can mean several thousands, all of which need to be imported to the computer for sorting and post processing. A new card reader hub from Lexar, however, promises to make at least the importing part of the process that much faster and more efficient.
The folks at Hama just announced a new accessory that should make life as an iPad or iPhone toting photographer a bit easier. No, we're not talking about the guys who shoot with their iOS devices; we're talking about the people who use them for on-the-go storage, editing and sharing.
The accessory is simply called the Wi-Fi Data Reader for Apple Devices and it does exactly what its name implies: it allows you to upload photos from USB, SD, SDHC and SDXC to your iPad without plugging anything in.
