Lexar 128GB Professional (3600MB/Sec) CFexpress Type B Gold 4.0 Series Memory Card
The Lexar 128GB Professional GOLD CFexpress 4.0 Type B Card brings PCIe 4.0 speeds to photographers and filmmakers shooting high-resolution bursts and 8K RAW video. With read speeds up to 3600 MB/s and write speeds up to 3300 MB/s, the card clears large files quickly as the camera buffer fills, while the CFexpress 4.0 interface shortens transfer times during backup and editing.

FAQs:
Is the Lexar Professional GOLD CFexpress 4.0 card suitable for 8K RAW video?
Yes. The card reaches write speeds of up to 3300 MB/s, providing cameras with enough bandwidth to record high-bitrate 8K RAW footage without the card becoming a bottleneck. The sustained write performance also matters during longer takes because the card continues writing data steadily as the camera buffer fills. This helps prevent dropped frames or interrupted recording during extended shoots.
How do the different capacities in the Lexar GOLD CFexpress 4.0 range compare?
The 128GB and 256GB cards suit short-form video work, sports photography, press coverage, and burst shooting, where photographers prefer to rotate multiple smaller cards throughout the day. The 512GB, 1TB, 2TB, and 4TB versions increase the sustained write speed to 3000 MB/s, making them better suited to longer 8K RAW recording sessions and extended continuous capture, where larger amounts of data need to be written steadily over time. Across the range, all capacities maintain the same PCIe 4.0 interface and maximum read and write speeds.
Is 128GB enough for professional shooting?
For stills photography, sports, press, and shorter-form video projects, 128GB is often easier to manage than carrying a single large-capacity card. Many photographers prefer rotating smaller cards throughout the day to separate projects or reduce risk if a card is damaged. Recording time depends heavily on the camera, codec, frame rate, and bitrate being used, especially with RAW video formats.
How durable is the card for travel and location work?
The card is built with reinforced protection against vibration, shock, bending, compression, drops, and dust, featuring an IP5X-rated housing that limits dust ingress during outdoor shooting and travel. Lexar also rates the connector for up to 12,000 insertion cycles, which matters for photographers and filmmakers regularly swapping cards between cameras and readers. The operating temperature range from -12°C to 72°C further supports use in colder outdoor conditions and hotter production environments.
Do I need a specific card reader to reach full speed?
Yes. To achieve the highest transfer rates, the card needs to be paired with a compatible CFexpress 4.0 Type B reader, such as the Lexar Professional Workflow CFexpress 4.0 Reader. Older readers still work, but they limit throughput.

The Buy Now Pay Later option comprises a 36 month loan following a six month deferral period.
During the six-month deferral period, it is possible to pay off the loan, either by way of a lump sum or in smaller amounts. If the loan is partially repaid within six months, the remaining interest will be adjusted to reflect the new balance. If the loan is fully repaid within the six-month deferral period, then no interest is payable, however, a £29 early settlement fee is payable in respect of repayments within these six months.
Following the six-month deferral period, Novuna Personal Finance will initiate a monthly direct debit payment for the remaining duration of the loan. Interest will be charged at a rate of 18.9% APR (representative) on outstanding balances (backdated to the first date of the loan). Novuna Personal Finance will send a reminder letter approximately one month before the six-month deferral period is due to elapse.
