Readers told me they got their new Airusan 256GB Type A card from Amazon US and EU (Click here). On “paper” this is the cheapest VPG 400 rated card you can get. But once more I want to remind you that the rating has NOT been approved by the CFA association (Source: PetaPixel). They are violating the trademark rights and I don’t know if Airusan will try to get an approval now or if CFA will try to ban those cards.

By the way, could some of you make an official test to see if this card really delivers on the promised consistent speed?

This is a better ans “safer” deal:

OWC 4.0 generation CFexpress Type A cards are in Stock at Amazon US (on preorder but not in Stock at BHphoto, Adorama) Those are the options:

• 480GB for $319
• 960GB for $519

If you missed the Kickstarter campaign you can now buy the Spinn magnetic Swift-lock now on Indiegogo (Click here).

Two days ago I reported that finally the very first new 4.0 generation CFexpress Type A cards are in Stock at Amazon US. They are now in Stock at OWC, BHphoto, Adorama too. Those are the options:

• 480GB for $319
• 960GB for $519

UDPATE: Both cards come with Type B adapter included. This will allow you to use the OWC Atlas USB4 CFexpress 4.0 Type B Card Reader (get it here on Amazon).

Why buy such cards?

No Sony camera yet has the hardware to support these Generation 4.0 cards. But there are three good reasons why to buy them anyway:

1. Those cards are backwards compatible and will work just fine on any Alpha camera on their max speed possible (900MB/s)
2. When you download the file to your computer it will be running at max speed of 1620MB/s Write via the new 4.0 card readers
3. I suspect that future cameras like the Sony A1II and Sony A7V will support those cards. So if you buy those cards now you are future proof if you switch to a future new Sony camera!
