The secret to this devices inevitable success is its relatively low asking price. While yes professionals can get better performance by simply using even more cards at a shoot, this device’s price per Gigabyte is hard to beat.

After all, the less professionals need to spend on temporary storage, the more they can spend on important things like prime lenses!
