Angelbird CF Express Type B Cards. SE, SX and Pro MK1

Angelbird CFExpress Type B Cards have been performing rather well. And at this price point no one will be anything but happy. The SE and SX were released to compete for the entry consumers buying cameras like the R5 that need a CFExpress type B card. With the high price points in the industry (at the time of this recording) these budget friendly prices give the opportunity for anyone to jump into a new cameras. The Angelbird CFExpress Type B 512 GB SE card is a video centric first card. It is made for those video enthusiasts but still delivers on the photos. The Angelbird CFExpress Type B 168GB SX card on the other hand is made for photo centric enthusiasts in mind who want to hit the top frame rate their camera can handle. Of course the space is not as big as the Pro versions but then again the price just makes it favorable for most.

Hello Nikos, would you recommend the 512GB Angelbird SE instead of the 325GB Prograde Colbat ?

[@NikosRentas]

It's based on your need with the camera you have and budget. The Progrades are quicker but pricier when you compare them. From my experience with the r5 I would rather purchase a couple of these SE rather than one Prograde.

@@NikosRentas I bought the 512 SE and to my surprise the startup time of the Canon R5 is pretty slow with this card, 2.3 sec on mine.

[@HaimGreen]

So I admit I didn’t check, What’s the Sustain speed of the Nikon Z6ii ? The 160 SX will fit perfect or it just over killing?

[@NikosRentas]

It's overkill for sure. I took a quick check and you need at least 45MB/s for the fastest video settings and for photos I calculated it to approximately 250-300 MB/s. In the specs it states similar. If I had this camera I would go with the SE card and then 2 UHS-2 256GB cards to have dual recording or backup.

@@NikosRentas thanks for the tip I was just in finding one for my z6 ii and I was going to buy the SE one as the price was reasonable with a huge storage. Now you help me solidify by buy.

For Nikon Z9 what card would you recommend? SE 512 or 1TB MK2?

[@Nilarium549]

depends on your tasks , money
main difference is in size. 1tb is faster but it doesnt really matter

[@BARSSTUDIO]

@@Nilarium549 Doesn't really matter because Z9 cant handle that speed anyway?

[@Nilarium549]

@@BARSSTUDIO even 512gb card speed faster than camera needs .and it has no drops in speed.
1tb is way more faster (1300Mb/s)

[@BARSSTUDIO]

@@Nilarium549 Got it, Thanks
