Supports SxS PRO X Cards at Full Speed | Superior Dual-Slot Ingest Performance
SxS™ professional memory cards are used in many past and current Sony® and ARRI® pro digital video cameras and camcorders. Sony’s latest cards-SxS PRO X-take a performance leap by offering nearly 3x the maximum read speeds over previous generation cards. While Sony Venice Cinema Camera and PXW-Z750 XDCAM exploit SxS PRO X cards’ enhanced performance capabilities, even users of compatible Sony video cameras, such as PXW-X400 and PXW-Z450, can take advantage of the cards’ read speed potential.
When it’s time to ingest footage to your computer, don’t settle on any old card reader-for the shortest ingest times, SxS PRO X cards require a card reader designed to support their maximum ingest speeds (and, for even greater efficiency, a dual-slot card reader that can ingest two cards simultaneously). Get a Sonnet SF3™ Series – SxS PRO X Card Reader; it’s the fastest tool for the job.
Built for Two – Read up to 2500 MB/s | Dual-Slot Ingest at Maximum Read Speeds
The SF3 Series – SxS PRO X Card Reader easily reads all SxS memory cards at their rated speeds, with simultaneous aggregate performance of two cards up to 2500 MB/s.
