It hasn’t been that long now since the introduction of CF Express Type B cards have pushed storage performance to 1750MB/s in the media industry. Media professionals understand that storage speeds are everything; the key thought being that continuous video or photography can only be accomplished with high speed storage concurrent to their activity.  Any DSLR owner knows EXACTLY what …

A decade ago, there wasn’t a person around that would have believed we might ever need 1TB as storage in a typical smartphone, camera or consumer-driven media device…but times have changed.  We might never have expected 4K to be the norm for smartphone video but today there are those that will record in 8K.  And pictures, yesterday’s DSLR family could …

It is no secret that we have been fans of Lexar for several years and, for the most part, their products are always found in our media work.  I love the simplicity, performance and calibre of their products plain and simple.  That’s why we simply had to reach out when Lexar introduced their newest CFExpress USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Card …

Sometimes things almost seem just too coincidental. Less than two weeks back we received the Lexar NM620 NVMe SSD for review while only a few days after that the Lexar name came up while touching base with an old friend I hadn’t spoken to in some time.  We were discussing his business, which is PC build and repair, when he …

In case you missed it, there has been a storm in the camera industry as of late.  As much as I would like to say it’s the newest Canon EOS R5 camera I have in hand, it’s not.  It is the controversy surrounding this R5 video capabilities and the correlation of internal temperatures and a point where the camera will …

It seems that consumers simply can’t get enough of portable SSDs.  For the most part, they all seem to be pocket sized these days, range anywhere from 512GB to 8TB, and can have speeds from SATA 3 at just above 500MB/s all the way to ThunderBolt 3 which can pull in data as fast as 2.8GB/s.  Price is key with …

I am somewhat of a camera buff.  I love photography and I carry a Canon 5D Mk IV, that even I will admit is much to far ahead of my skill set.  My wife.  Well, she used to take incredible pleasure in reminding me how many all inclusive vacations this camera cost.  That was until I started shooting family weddings. …

Typically, one might think of Nano cards only when it came to cell phones. The nano SIM card, in its original iteration, allowed us to communicate.  Huawei changed that.  Their newer releases have dual nano slots that can be used for two SIM cards if you travel alot, or for additional on-board storage memory. The price of storage is perhaps …

If you are a fan of the SSDs, you will know that we have had just a bit of Lexar coverage to date.  Personally speaking, I have always been a Lexar fan and it is a mainstay in much of my media equipment.    Last we wrote, we were able to show you that they have had tremendous luck with …

Last week in Zhongshan, China, Lexar invited a very small group of international press for a special preview of just a few of their upcoming releases.  This event was held at the Longsys/Lexar/Foressee Headquarters which also houses the Lexar Memory Museum.  To say that this facility is breathtaking is just a bit of an understatement as it is situated in …
