The latest addition to Lexar's Professional range of memory cards is the CFexpress Type B card using PCIe Gen 3 and NVMe 1.3 protocols for fast transfer rates. Priced at £215, the cost per gigabyte is certainly high, but is the performance worth it for professional users?
Designed to meet the high-quality and seamless RAW 4K video capture needs of the next generation of DSLRs and cinema cameras, the Lexar Professional CFexpress Type B card supports both PCIe Gen 3 and NVMe 1.3 protocols to reach very fast transfer rates. Lexar quote performance figures for the card as up to 1,750MB/s for reads and up to 1,000MB/s for writes.
At the time of writing, four capacities make up the Lexar CFexpress Type B range, 64GB, 128GB, 256GB and 512GB.
Lexar back the card with a lifetime limited warranty.
