Sony 960GB CFexpress Type B TOUGH Memory Card

The Sony 960GB CFexpress Type B TOUGH Memory Card is a high-performance storage solution designed for professional creators who need speed, durability, and dependable large-capacity media.

Compatible With

• Cameras and devices with CFexpress Type B card slots
• CFexpress Type B card readers
• Select XQD-compatible devices that support CFexpress Type B via firmware update, where applicable

Built for Professional Speed

With maximum read speeds up to 1700 MB/s and maximum write speeds up to 1480 MB/s, the CEBG960T is made for creators who cannot afford slowdowns in the field or in post. The fast write performance helps support sustained data capture for high-bitrate video and rapid-fire still shooting, while the fast read performance significantly shortens transfer times when moving large media files to a computer.

Large 960GB Capacity for Longer Shoots

The generous 960GB capacity makes this card especially useful for long-form productions, event coverage, documentary work, sports, wildlife, and commercial sets where frequent card changes can interrupt momentum. Having more onboard storage can help reduce downtime, improve workflow efficiency, and give creators added confidence during critical takes.

Sony TOUGH Durability

As part of Sony's TOUGH series, this CFexpress Type B card is engineered to withstand the rigors of professional use. It is designed for greater durability than standard media, with resistance to physical stress, vibration, and demanding handling conditions common in production environments. For photographers and filmmakers working on location, that added toughness can be just as important as raw speed.

Ideal for High-End Video and Burst Photography

Modern professional cameras can generate enormous amounts of data in a very short period of time. Whether you are recording 4K, 6K, or 8K footage, capturing RAW video, or shooting extended still bursts, this card is designed to keep up. Its performance profile makes it well suited to applications where dropped frames, buffer delays, or long ingest times are unacceptable.

Workflow Benefits

Beyond in-camera capture, the Sony 960GB CFexpress Type B TOUGH Memory Card can improve overall production efficiency. Faster card offloading means editors, assistants, and solo creators can begin backup and post-production sooner. This is especially helpful for time-sensitive assignments such as news, weddings, live events, sports, and commercial productions with tight turnaround schedules.

How It Compares

Compared with older memory card formats, CFexpress Type B offers a major leap in throughput and responsiveness. Relative to legacy media often used in earlier professional cameras, this format provides better support for newer codecs, higher resolutions, and sustained burst performance. For creators upgrading camera systems, moving to CFexpress Type B media can be an important part of realizing the full performance of the camera body.

Usage Tips

For best results, use this card in devices specifically designed for CFexpress Type B media and keep camera firmware updated. Pairing it with a high-speed CFexpress Type B reader can help you take full advantage of its transfer performance. It is also a good idea to format the card in-camera before important shoots and maintain a disciplined backup workflow for mission-critical projects.

Recommended Accessories

To get the most from this memory card, consider adding a CFexpress Type B card reader for fast offloads, a protective memory card case for transport, and additional backup media for extended production days. On higher-end shoots, dual-card workflows and immediate backup drives can add valuable redundancy and peace of mind.
