Transcontinenta UK Ltd., as distributor Other World Computing® for the UK and Ireland, announces the new OWC 1TB and 2TB Atlas Ultra CFexpress memory cards as an extension of the OWC Atlas Ecosystem. OWC is the leading provider of end-to-end ecosystem solutions for consumer and professional computing hardware, accessories and software.
The two new high-capacity memory cards offer an incredible 1700MB/sec write and 1850MB/sec read real-world speeds, as well as an ultra-reliable 1500MB/sec minimum sustained write speed. Designed to meet today's extreme data demands, these high-performance Atlas Ultra CFexpress cards enable professional filmmakers to capture stunningly lifelike 8K RAW video with cinematic cameras such as the RED V-Raptor/XL and Komodo-X, and flagship professional mirrorless cameras such as the Nikon Z8 and Z9 or Canon R5C.
“As image resolution and colour depth increase, recording time decreases. These higher capacity cards are the perfect solution for longer recording times at the highest resolutions and bitrates. The larger capacity points are also incredibly performative, giving us best-in-class reading, writing and workflows optimization,” said Ian Stone, Category Manager for OWC memory cards.
OWC's extremely thorough quality control process allows users to shoot fearlessly, knowing that Atlas Ultra CFexpress cards will flawlessly deliver the speed and data integrity required when users only have one chance to capture the moment. Atlas Ultra memory cards can withstand the toughest environmental challenges, including X-rays, UV, shock, drops, and temperature extremes. Shoot, store, and share with the confidence that your creative work - and your back - is protected on every card.
The new capacity points complete a comprehensive ecosystem of cards, readers, and software. OWC is not looking to make point solutions, but a suite of products designed to make the creative professional's workflow seamless and faster. OWC's unique Innergize™ software works with all Atlas cards to keep them fresh out of the box throughout the product lifecycle, and comes as a free solution with the new 1TB and 2TB Atlas Ultra cards.
OWC has developed the most comprehensive range of hardware and software solutions to support everyone in the creative process from Capture to Completion™. The OWC Atlas Ecosystem is the first step in the process of ensuring that photographers / videographers have the tools they need to take their vision from camera to audience.
Atlas Memory Cards
Atlas CFexpress and SD memory cards give photographers and videographers flexibility and choice, depending on their cameras and how they use them. Tested under the most aggressive settings each card type can handle, Atlas memory cards safely store irreplaceable content and deliver performance and reliability to spec.
Atlas Card Readers
Go from ingest to edit with a range of bus-powered Atlas portable card readers and SD and CFexpress card reader-equipped OWC docks and storage solutions. OWC memory card readers, such as the Atlas FXR, have been specifically designed and extensively tested for effective heat dissipation, ensuring that Atlas memory cards deliver maximum sustained performance without throttling.
OWC Innergize™
OWC's Innergize software is an integral part of the ecosystem created for OWC Atlas memory cards and readers. Innergize provides health monitoring to ensure the card is healthy before a shoot begins. Field firmware updates ensure cards and readers work optimally with future cameras, and card sanitization ensures there are no dropped frames when shooting video or continuous burst photos.
OWC Copy That®
For when users have captured their footage and need to quickly and accurately distribute it to back-ups, editors, producers, directors and other stakeholders. OWC Copy That streamlines the offload process with lightning-fast, verified copies of files to single or multiple destinations.
Pricing & Availability
OWC Atlas Ultra CFexpress 1TB and 2TB cards will be available in the near future from selected retailers in the UK and Ireland.
