How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsHandles my z9 raw files
Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2024
Handles my large raw files easily. I have been using the card for a while with out issue. I did have one problem with the card getting hot. However it was during a long filming session. The camera was in the sun. And the card door was closed. So I can not say it was a problem with the card. I have used it since with no issue. I have reformatted the card and used it many times since with out issue. It is very well priced for the amount of storage space. I use it mostly for nature photography. It came highly recommended by others in my field

Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2022
This does not play well with card readers you have to spend almost another $100 to get a card reader made by angelbird for it to work" reliably" if thats possible. I have 3 readers already and one of them in My OWC 8 bay drive case. This is the one I use the most, normally after putting it in and out 5 or 6 times it will work.

I dropped the score to 1 star. This card is such a pain. I was on sight and need to quickly upload photos to my computer to process and upload online for a customer to look at. It refused to work with the card reader I had, so I tried to get it to connect using my Z7ii after plugging it in over and over turning the camera off and on Nikon transfer finally found it. This is obviously with paid talent waiting for me. I ordered another card which is not here yet and had a job today with several hours of video every time it gets to 40 or 50 gigs it disconnects. This is my last anglebird product.

OK last review ordered the card reader its big does not have the push to eject that even the super cheep one I have does, not compatible with XQD cards, reads at a little over 400mbs. super cheep $30 one I have 1200 mbs.

******************STAY WAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANIES PRODUCTS*********************

Somebody grabbed this thing again put it in a camera again. Had to get their slow reader out again. I bought this card on August 22 2022 almost a year ago they said unlike other cards the firmware was undateable well they haven't had an update to fix this card to work, unlike all other cards that can't be updated but will work in any card reader. It and the card reader is in the trash now can't afford not to be able to access cards this way close to $300 in the trash.

5.0 out of 5 stars Get the 1 TB CRAD because it is on offer
Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2023

The sustained write speed on 1TB is 1300MB/sec vs 800MB/sec on 512GB card. This works good enough on Nikon z8 and hopefully future proof

So far so good
Plenty of storage doesn’t seem to get that hot recording at 8k and keeping good temperature.

The only negative is the plastic clear case
really cheap can’t even open it please replace this. This is an expensive card. Don’t put this cheap clear cover.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sustained write speed
Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2023
Capacity: 512 GBVerified Purchase
The most important aspect of a CF Express Type B card is the sustained write speed. This card is more than enough for my Nikon Z9 for all tasks with a sustained write speed of 800 MB/S. I’m happy with my purchase. With it’s price tag, this card is unbeatable.

5.0 out of 5 stars LOTS OF SPACE FOR CREATIVE MAGIC WITH THE Z8
Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2023
Capacity: 1 TBVerified Purchase
First off the deal that I happened on is fantastic. The card was listed at $199.99 so I pulled the trigger to purchase my first CFexpress B card. That happened on Black Friday deals and a day after the price went back up costing a hundred dollars more I was so happy. It took couple weeks for my credit card to show a charge and during this time no change in tracking it wasn’t even to shipping yet. I did not know what to think. I waited patiently and it finally arrived on Dec 11th and I registered it then formatted it in the Nikon Z8 and all seems great. I will soon be getting the Anglebird CFexpress card reader for my CPU so any firmware updates for the card can be installed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Understanding Sustained Write Speeds Is Important
Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2023
Capacity: 512 GBVerified Purchase
This card suffers from the same problem that many other brands succumb to, the need to advertise "peak" read speeds on the card to help sell cards. The real story here is in sustained write speeds. When it's all said and done, this is the most important statistic in any memory card. It tells you what the card is capable of doing in your camera. In the case of this Angelbird AV PRO SE, that's "Sustained write speed of 800 MB/s". Meaning this card is capable of 8K RAW and 4K120p. I've tested this against my other cards (ProGrade Cobalt) and have seen no difference in photography RAW image buffer on the Canon R3 or video recording in any format on the R3/R5. It did, however, cost considerably LESS than my ProGrade Digital cards.

Where this cards actually falls short is with an unusually slow startup time when installed in your camera. The R5 and R3 both take a little more time to actually turn on versus startup times with the ProGrade cards. There are firmware updates avilable for the cards that annoyingly must be performed with Angelbird's own reader. I picked one of these up and upgraded the firmware on one of mine - this made no difference in startup times in either camera. One of my cards says it can't be upgraded because it's not compatible with the firmware update - they're exactly the same card. So I don't know what's going on there...but it didn't make a difference with the R5 so I won't bother with it.

I think the firmware updates are very stupid because no other CFExpress card on the market (to my knowledge) require this or even offer it. So why does Angelbird need it?
