High-speed SDXC card delivers 8K recording, resilience and faster transfers.
SanDisk has expanded its professional media line-up with the Extreme Pro SD UHS-II V90 Card, a high-performance SDXC card aimed at photographers and filmmakers who need dependable speed for demanding capture formats. Positioned for cinema-quality 8K recording as well as high-resolution stills, the card is clearly designed for users working with modern mirrorless and DSLR bodies that can take advantage of UHS-II performance.
The headline figure is a read speed of up to 310MB/s, paired with sequential write performance of 304MB/s on the 128GB version. SanDisk also highlights sustained minimum write speeds of 90MB/s when used with V90-capable devices, which is the critical figure for video shooters. That V90 classification matters because it gives a stronger indication of reliable sustained recording rather than just peak burst performance, making the card more suitable for extended clips and more demanding codecs.
SanDisk is pitching the card not only as a capture tool but also as a workflow upgrade. Faster transfer speeds should help reduce the time spent offloading footage and stills after a shoot, which can make a real difference for event photographers, commercial teams and anyone working to tight delivery deadlines. The company also emphasises continuous shooting performance, saying the fast write rates help a camera buffer clear more quickly during burst capture.
Capacity is another major part of the appeal. The range extends from 128GB through to 2TB, giving users flexibility depending on whether they prioritise cost, portability or maximum recording time. SanDisk says the 2TB version can store up to 1,118 minutes of 8K video at 30fps or 47,368 24MP RAW files, underlining that this is a card family aimed at serious production rather than casual use.
Durability has not been overlooked either. The card is rated IP68 for water and dust resistance and has been tested to survive drops from up to six metres. That should reassure photographers and videographers working outdoors, travelling regularly or shooting in more unpredictable environments. SanDisk also bundles two years of RescuePRO Deluxe data recovery software and backs the card with a lifetime limited warranty, adding some extra peace of mind for professionals who cannot afford to lose important files.
Taken together, the Extreme Pro SD UHS-II V90 Card looks like a premium media option for creators who want fast transfer speeds, robust build quality and the sustained write performance needed for high-end stills and video work.
