So, with the approach of CES2021, it was a good chance to catch up on where Kingston was with their media card lineup. Turns out, it\u2019s pretty diverse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the price of memory cards comes down, if you haven\u2019t bought one recently, you\u2019ll probably be amazed at how much memory you can get for a very small investment. And Kingston cards <em>are <\/em>an investment \u2013 because they last.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, their 128GB <strong>High Endurance card<\/strong>, made for constantly running situations like dash cams, surveillance, and body cams, costs less than $30.00.&nbsp; It reads up to 95MB\/s and writes up to 45MB\/s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Canvas React Plus line of SD cards<\/strong> is the one for pros who shoot a lot of 4K or 8K video, as these write 260MB\/s and the microSD versions write 165MB\/s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you aren\u2019t shooting 4K every day, you can probably do great and save a little money with the <strong>Canvas Go! Plus line<\/strong>. The SD and micro SD cards write up to 90MB\/s.&nbsp; The microSD cards are rated A2 app support for Android.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"274\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dougbardwell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/210124-1087-1024-900x274.jpg?resize=900%2C274\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34419\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The consumer end of their line is called <strong>Canvas Select Plus<\/strong> with UHS-I speed, &#8211; that\u2019s up to 85MB\/s write speed. These are ideal for small action cams and the micro cards have A1 support for Android apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are still shooting with something like my dependable Nikon D300 DSLR, Kingston still has you covered with the <strong>Canvas Focus CompactFlash<\/strong> (CF) cards with write speeds to 130MB\/s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read speeds are all significantly higher \u2013 all the way up to 300MB\/s in the React Plus line. Look carefully when buying as some come with readers included, while others are strictly the card itself. The microSD cards with SD holders are always a good option because you can use them in cameras that take only microSD or cameras that take SD cards only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out the entire line at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kingston.com\/unitedstates\/us\">Kingston.com<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/stores\/Kingston+Digital\/page\/812EB104-E5F8-43B9-B885-D0451B9D801B?ref_=ast_bln\">at their Amazon Store<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-divider ugb-divider ugb-06ea6d3 ugb-divider--v2 ugb-divider--design-bar ugb-main-block\"><div class=\"ugb-inner-block\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><hr class=\"ugb-divider__hr\"\/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"756\" height=\"308\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dougbardwell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Dougs-Bio-8-20.jpg?resize=756%2C308\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33884\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Dougs-Bio-8-20.jpg?w=756&amp;ssl=1 756w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Dougs-Bio-8-20.jpg?resize=300%2C122&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Dougs-Bio-8-20.jpg?resize=150%2C61&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Dougs-Bio-8-20.jpg?resize=480%2C196&amp;ssl=1 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 756px) 100vw, 756px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-divider ugb-divider ugb-336eba8 ugb-divider--v2 ugb-divider--design-bar ugb-main-block\"><div class=\"ugb-inner-block\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><hr class=\"ugb-divider__hr\"\/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Disclosure:&nbsp; Kingston Digital provided the above products for us to test in order to complete this review.
