The updated card lineup adds 2TB[1] capacity options and faster read and write speeds, addressing two pain points wedding shooters know well: running out of space mid-event and offloading footage before the next job.
Sandisk has added 2TB1 capacities and faster read and write speeds to two of its flagship SD card lines. For wedding and event videographers juggling long shooting days and multi-camera setups, a single card that can potentially absorb an entire day of 4K, 6K or even 8K footage changes the math on how you pack and plan a job. The latest generation of the SANDISK Extreme PRO SDXC™ UHS-II V60 and SANDISK Extreme PRO SD UHS-II V90 cards are available now, with the V60 starting at $199.99 MSRP (64GB) and the V90 starting at $362.99 MSRP (128GB). Here’s what to know about this product line update.
V60: more capacity for 4K and 6K video2
The SANDISK Extreme PRO SDXC™ UHS-II V60 Card is rated for write speeds up to 250MB/s3 on 256GB through 2TB1 capacities and read speeds up to 300MB/s3. Its Video Speed Class 60 rating4 makes it well suited to 4K and 6K capture2, and the new 2TB1 option means shooters can go longer between offloads on demanding multi-camera productions. Wedding videographers and documentary crews shooting in high-bitrate formats will find the headroom particularly useful, since both can push sustained bitrates that fill cards quickly over a full shooting day.

V90: targeting 8K2 and high-frame-rate work
The SANDISK Extreme PRO SD UHS-II V90 Card steps up to 305MB/s5 write speeds (on 512GB – 2TB cards1) and up to 310MB/s5 read speeds, and its V90 rating4 target cinema-level 8K2 recording and high-bitrate slow-motion work. The Video Speed Class 90 rating guarantees a minimum sustained write speed of 90MB/s, which is the threshold most camera manufacturers cite for reliable 8K recording. Cameras that support UHS-II V90 cards benefit most from those headroom speeds, especially when shooting high-frame-rate footage that spikes write demand above the class floor. The 2TB1 capacity on the SANDISK Extreme PRO SD UHS-II V90 Card is new to the lineup and gives cinema productions the option to shoot longer takes without swapping media mid-scene.

Durability, warranty and compatibility
Both cards carry an IP68 rating6, survive drops up to six meters6, and include a lifetime limited warranty7. Sandisk also bundles a two-year RescuePROⓇ Deluxe file recovery subscription8 with each card — useful reassurance when the footage is irreplaceable. The cards work in any UHS-II compatible slot and fall back to UHS-I speeds in older bodies, though the performance gains only fully materialize in cameras and readers with UHS-II support.
SANDISK Extreme PRO Portable SSD: fast offloads on set
For wedding shooters managing heavy multi-stream workflows on location, Sandisk also refreshed the SANDISK Extreme PRO Portable SSD earlier this year. It offers transfer speeds up to 4,000MB/s9 — fast enough, according to Sandisk , to move 10 minutes of 12K footage in just under a minute10. That kind of throughput matters in the field, where a fast offload lets an assistant verify and back up footage on the go rather than waiting until the end of the day. The drive starts at $687.99 MSRP for 2TB1, carries an IP65 rating11 and 256-bit AES hardware encryption12 and is available now alongside the updated SD cards.

A complete field storage system
Taken together, the expanded capacity and faster write speeds make both cards a straightforward upgrade for professional videographers who shoot long-form events. Whether you land on the SANDISK Extreme PRO SDXC™ UHS-II V60 Card for 4K2 and 6K2 work or the SANDISK Extreme PRO SD UHS-II V90 Card for 8K2 and high-bitrate slow motion, the 2TB1 ceiling gives you considerably more buffer before you have to think about storage mid-shoot. Pair either card with the SANDISK Extreme PRO Portable SSD for fast on-site offloads, and Sandisk covers your capture-to-delivery pipeline — a strong argument for why it remains one of the most trusted names in professional storage.
