Those cards have 10 MB/s write speed, which is really really slow.
It says 40mb/s
Oh oops read speed.
Do these cards support XAVC-S recording on the A7II / A6000 ?
Do these cards support XAVC-S on the A6000 / A7II?
yes as long as it is 64gb or more
Why 64GB?
If he does not shoot 1h or more at once a 32GB card is also ok.
This is really slow and most have upgraded their line from UHS 1 to UHS 3 Speed class. It has to do with minimum write speed of Class 1 at 10mb/sec vs Class 3 at 30mb/sec. Additionally, read speeds are significantly higher than 40…with 80 considered ‘slow’. While Class 1 will support 1080p video, Class 3 is quicker and more efficient with 1080p…and required for 4k video. Obviously, RAW stills will write faster with Class 3, but Class 1 will work.
I think you mean UHS-I U3. Then there’s UHS-II, which is ridiculously fast (using a second set of pins), but only a handful of cameras support it.
Not sure whose bright idea it was to create this naming convention. They should’ve just called U3 Class 30, since Class 10 and U1 are the same thing. Then start a new naming sequence starting with UHS-II.
Not to mention, some cards rated as U1 can write at speeds twice as fast as U3’s requirement (some even faster), yet aren’t fully compatible with cameras that require U3 (like my RX100 IV, which I had to buy a new card for :p ).
You’re right. I was just abbreviating. In reality though, I would far prefer the UHS-1 U3 over the UHS-1 U1 even if the 128GB version is $79 (Lexar) and $77 (Sony) at B&H. In fact, it is the only thing I would consider with an A7RII, but may go down to a 64GB and carry two. Looking at he A7RII manual, there is no reference to compatibility with the UHS-II cards.
Not really needed for 4k but really shines when taking continuous RAW pics. But yea, only use U3 myself.
Class 10 and U1 are not the same thing, admittedly indicating the same min. write speed. Class 10 is SD(XC) related, U1 UHS related, where the bus speed of the card is the significant differentiator.
Basically there wouldn’t be a difference as of today between a UHS-I U3 and a UHS-II U3 card, as both need to guarantee just 30 MB/s min write speed. And as long as min write speeds would not exceed 150MB/s it would remain the same. This is because of the bus speed of 156MB/s on UHS-I and 312MB/s on UHS-II.
Just bought a Lexar Pro UHS-II U3 64GB for 47$, its backwards compatible, works great in the A7II.
I assume it is the 1000x version?
This is here in Germany available at 48 €. That’s quite cheap.
Even the 2000x version is much cheaper than its competitors from Sandisk and Toshiba at a price of 120 €.
Yes exactly, the 1000x.
Never had a Lexar before, I hope quality is up to Sandisk.
