What ProGrade Digital isn’t telling you about their new CFExpress Type B Cards is that the two terabyte cards can hold pretty much your entire next photo gig. While I’m most likely joking about that for photographers, realistically, it probably can do just that. Everyone needs more storage, right? For a cool $799.99, you can give your camera the ability to hold a whole lot more images.

These cards will do really well for photographers that are going on long trips and won’t have access to offload their photos onto a device of some sort. The new ProGrade Digital CFExpress Type B Cards are also great for whenever you need to photograph birds, wildlife, sports, or have back-to-back photojournalism gigs.
If you’re shooting video, well, we don’t need to explain to you all the benefits of having more storage. But as it is, we’re a photography website.
The Phoblographer’s staff use ProGrade Digital cards for the most part, and we’re very happy with how well they consistently perform. Most photographers will be very happy with the results they get using these cards. So if you don’t plan on upgrading from your Canon EOS R5 for a while, why not extend the battery life with a new card instead?
