Sony today announced the launch of an addition to its TOUGH SD card range with the introduction of the TOUGH SF-M series. The Sony SF-M TOUGH specification SD card is the world’s toughest UHS-II SD card that is shockproof and has the highest-grade waterproof and dustproof levels. With an ultra-high-speed data transfer of up to 277MB/s read speed and 150MB/s write speed, both photographers and videographers can enjoy the speed benefits of the SF-M TOUGH SD cards, whether shooting high megapixel RAW photographs or recording 4K video.


Even in extreme shooting conditions, users work is protected so he can focus on the job in hand. When the card is used with the new Sony MRW-S3 USB Hub, backups are swift and buffer times reduced, resulting in a highly optimised workflow. Also, the new conventional UHS-II SD card SF-E series follows to provide users with a wider range of choice. It has fast transfer speeds of up to 270MB/s read and 120MB/s write.

Both the SF-M TOUGH specification SD card and SF-E series include file rescue software to recover accidentally deleted data and photos. Both Sony series will be available in 64GB, 128GB and 256GB capacities. The SF-M series and SF-E series will be available from autumn 2019.
