Now, Delkin Devices Inc. is celebrating the BLACK Series SD line, built for the next generation of demanding photographers and filmmakers. These BLACK SD memory cards continue a legacy of speed, strength, and absolute reliability, backed by Delkin’s Lifetime Warranty and 48-Hour Replacement Guarantee.
Built to Survive, Designed to Perform
From day one, the Delkin BLACK Series was engineered with a single purpose: to keep working where others fail.
BLACK SD cards feature:
- Solid molded, virtually unbreakable construction
- Water-resistant, shockproof, and X-ray proof durability
- Rated for extreme temperatures (-25°C to 85°C)
- Individually serialized to ensure authenticity
- Lifetime Warranty + 48-Hour Replacement Guarantee
- Tested in the U.S. on all major camera brands
The bottom line, these cards are built to survive the shoot — and every shot after that.
Trusted on Set. Proven in the Field.
The BLACK Series earned its reputation the hard way: by performing when failure is not an option.
Award-winning action photographer Jasin Boland has captured some of the biggest action moments in cinema — Mad Max, James Bond, Extraction, Jason Bourne, Thor, Jurassic World, and more. Over his career, he’s shot well over one million frames on Delkin cards.
“When we shoot massive stunts, I have one chance to capture the action — and for that reason alone, I only trust Delkin BLACK cards in my Nikons to deliver the images you see on posters and billboards all over the world” says Boland.
Delkin’s BLACK series memory cards continue to set the standard for professionals who can’t afford a second take — cards tested, proven, and trusted on the biggest stages in cinema and photography.
3X Stronger & Virtually Unbreakable
Unlike standard SD cards, Delkin BLACK SD uses a solid, molded core, sealing the internal components for maximum protection. Delkin BLACK SD cards are built with no write-protect switch or plastic ribs in between the card contacts, enhancing reliability and ensuring long term functionality.

A Complete Family for Every Workflow
The BLACK SD line joins Delkin’s growing lineup of professional media, including the BLACK CFexpress Type B and CFexpress Type A series. Together, they form a complete ecosystem built for every workflow — from DSLRs and mirrorless cameras to drones.
Because reliability shouldn’t depend on the camera you’re using.
11 Years Later — Tougher than Ever
Reaching 1 million cards shipped is more than a milestone — it’s a measure of trust earned one assignment at a time.
