From my limited research, it seems the Sony tough card is the better CFexpress card, although more expensive. According to a user's test, all of the Sony cards 128, 256 and 512 has the best speeds and can handle 8k raw, while the Prograde's 128gb version is hit or miss, meaning folks have been getting the "not fast enough" error message (based on users reviews). The tester stated that you have to step up to the Prograde 512gb version to be able to consistently record 8k raw. I am only interested in the 128gb card and from my limited research, the Sony's version can handle 8k raw for those rare times I may want to experiment with it, but in all honesty, I'd probably not go any higher than 4k, which it can handle with no problem. So, pound for pound, the Sony cards gives the end users more purchasing flexibility...meaning no matter which card size you buy, it can handle the highest video resolution.
Note: I am not a videographer, but I sometimes, rarely, pop on the video when there's something very interesting when a photo can't tell the whole store...for instance when I found a snapping turtle laying her eggs.
