, Other World Computing Debuts Four New Storage Solutions for Creators

Leading with the point of capture, the high-performance VPG200-certified OWC Atlas Pro CFexpress 4.0 Type A memory cards, in 480GB and 960GB capacities, are designed to address the performance demands of video and photography professionals who shoot with Sony Alpha and FX cameras. Next week, Other World Computing will also introduce three additions to the OWC Envoy product line. This includes a new portable OWC Envoy SSD at 1TB and 2TB, OWC Envoy Pro Elektron at 4TB, and the OWC Envoy Pro Mini in a 2TB capacity.

Capture with professional grade performance CFX Type A cards

With real-world 1850MB/s read and 1700MB/s write speeds and VPG200 certification to work with all Sony Alpha and FX cameras including a9III, a1, a7SIII, a7IV, a7rV, FX3, FX6, FR7, and FX30. These new OWC Atlas Pro CFexpress 4.0 Type A cards are perfect for the professional filmmaker or extreme action photographer. The OWC Atlas Pro CFexpress 4.0 Type A memory cards are designed for creators who want to benefit from the maximum performance that their Sony cameras can offer, such as 8K video, Pro-slow motion or Pro-high resolution burst RAW photography. Consistent performance allows these cards to flawlessly capture high-volume, high-bitrate shots without a moment of delay. Efficient for handling data-intensive tasks, including transferring large files between the card and computer, these new Type A CFexpress cards from Other World Computing are well suited for professional workflows that demand quick data access.

Time saving and Quality Assured

The new Atlas Pro CFexpress 4.0 Type A cards are tested under the most aggressive camera settings to ensure delivery of the highest reliability and performance, so professionals can securely store and access irreplaceable content. Using CFexpress 4.0 technology, these Atlas Pro Type A cards can reduce ingestion time by 2x, or more, compared to CFexpress 2.0 cards and by 6x or more vs standard SD cards. With the included OWC Type A-to-Type B adapter, the best performance from these cards can be realized with CFexpress Type B readers. Pair this card with an OWC CFX car dreader to utilize OWC’s Innergize™ health, performance, and field upgrade management software. This ensures OWC memory cards are always ready to deliver the highest level of workflow performance and reliability.

A Complete Ecosystem for Creators

Other World Computing has built the most comprehensive assortment of hardware and software solutions to support the creative process from Capture to Completion™. The OWC Atlas ecosystem is the first step of the process to ensure photographers and videographers have the tools they need to get their vision from camera to audience.

“With the CFA 4.0 specifications, industry-leading VPG200 certification, along with the rigorous testing and manufacturing standards of OWC, these Atlas CFexpress Type A memory cards will unlock access to the highest quality capture settings enabling SONY shooters to reap the benefits of high-speed and reliability,” says Larry O’Connor, Other World Computing Founder, and CEO. “These cards also benefit from the capability to be upgraded and monitored with our Innergize software, which provides the peace of mind that one’s vision will be captured reliably.”

Other World Computing’s Innergize™ software is integral to the ecosystem built for OWC Atlas memory cards and readers. Innergize checks the health of an Atlas card to ensure it is reliable to use, and then cleans and restores performance to ensure there are zero dropped frames when shooting video or continuous burst photos. Atlas owners can then upgrade their firmware in the field to take advantage of the latest card improvements and ensure OWC cards and readers will perform optimally with their cameras.

The Atlas Pro CFexpress 4.0 Type A cards will be available in May from the OWC dealers in the UK and Ireland. There are also OWC Atlas CFexpress Type B readers available.
