Toshiba Releases Exceria Pro SD Cards: Fastest in The World

I’ve always thought it was comical that you can spend an upwards of 3,500 dollars on a camera that can do everything but save photos on to the camera. Who would’ve thought memory cards were such a necessity right?

We’ll Toshiba is making it a luxury with the new release of what is claimed to be the world’s fastest SD cards ever made. It is called the Exercia Pro line and geared to professional that want to reach the SD speeds of up to 240MB/sec with a variety of capacities.

The Exceria Pro is stated to reach speeds upwards of 260MB/s read and 240MB/s write and will be carried in capacities of 16GB and 32GB. With these speeds, Toshiba says that these cards to a consumer with a high-end camera with see enormous increases in the amount of information the card can transfer before the buffer. These cards are really meant for the burst mode photographer that might want this card for fast action sports or something that may require multiple shots quickly.

These speeds were all possible due to Toshiba’s newly developed controller that works with UHS-II which is the ultra high speed serial bus interface in SDs. Pricing for these cards are yet to be announced but we should expect these in October. Any photographers like me excited for this? Or SD cards not a big deal yet?
