Memory Card Prices Rising 25%+ from June: Buy Now or Pay More

Storage prices are moving in one direction. Lexar, ProGrade, and OWC have all announced hikes this month, with Lexar's 25%+ increase hitting SD and microSD from June 1. Sony quietly exited most of its memory card lineup. This isn't a single company story, it's a supply-side squeeze working its way down to your camera bag. B&H has a May sale running up to 65% off Lexar and SanDisk cards, including CFexpress 4.0 Type B stock. If you shoot anything that chews through fast media, the window to stock up at current prices is closing. Buy before June, not after.
