SoCalLeicanator Posted August 19, 2021 Share #1 Posted August 19, 2021 Advertisement (gone after registration) I hit the big 50 got a Q2. Question I was also gifted a Sandisk extreme pro Sdxc UHS-1 memory card (listed as a recommended accessory by BH). Is it too slow for the Q2? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc B-C Posted August 19, 2021 Share #3 Posted August 19, 2021 I believe Leica recommend the UHS-II cards: which I do use as a full time DNG file user. Others here will say not needed except for video or burst shooting perhaps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalLeicanator Posted August 20, 2021 Author Share #5 Posted August 20, 2021 (edited) FWIW, I talked to Leica DC and they said there is no need for UHS-II UNLESS you're bursting shots, even for exposure compensation. I am mainly street/landscape so went ahead and put in the UHS-1 card. So far so good. I bought a small (32GB) UHS-II Card to experiment with as well.

Trankster Posted August 20, 2021 Share #6 Posted August 20, 2021 I "invested" in a 128GB UHS-2 SD card and it has served me well. I don't use burst often and have not done any video in the 2 years I have had my Q2. I have noticed no delays is saving to the card shooting raw and jpg. I do carry an extra UHS-1 card just in case of a problem or filling up my 128GB card. So far, I have never used the 2nd card. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
