ALMOST all current cameras use SD cards, but when choosing one to buy, it’s easy to get lost in the confusing alphabetti spaghetti of speed ratings and classes. As a result, it can be difficult to work out why you might select any particular card, rather than a cheaper or more expensive option. Even when you know exactly what you’re looking for, PNY’s EliteX-PRO90 might be seen as too good to be true, as it has a super-fast rating at a fraction of the price of brands such as SanDisk or Lexar.
Available in 64GB, 128GB or 256GB sizes, this card declares its credentials up front, with read speeds up to 300MB/sec and write speeds up to 280MB/sec clearly written on the packet. This is essentially as fast as any other SD card, and should enable both extended high-speed bursts, and shorter write times before the buffer is cleared.
