CompactFlash
CompactFlash (CF) is a flash memory card format, developed by SanDisk in 1994, that uses solid-state technology to store data in a small, durable device without moving parts. It has been widely used in high-end digital cameras and other devices, offering high capacities and performance suitable for professional imaging, automotive, and industrial applications, according to the CompactFlash Association. A flash memory card, distinct from SD cards in its older, bulkier but sturdier design. Based on flash memory, which is reliable and durable as it has no moving mechanical parts, making it resistant to shocks. Originally built with NOR flash memory, it later adopted NAND flash technology, which is better for large data storage, and supports high read/write speeds for features like burst photography and HD video recording. Designed to operate in harsh environments, with some cards rated for extreme temperatures and protected against shock and vibration. Primarily used in high-end digital single-lens reflex (DSLR) and video cameras, but also in some industrial equipment and computing devices. Provides a significant storage capacity for its generation and offers reliable performance, making it a popular choice in the professional camera market. While older cards used a basic flash memory interface, the CompactFlash Association (CFA) continues to define standards for professional media, including the more advanced CFast and CFexpress formats.
