sd card minimum speed for SL3

[dennis12]

What is the minimum speed of sd card in MB/S?

Only take photos, not videos

Requires 300mb/s ?  The sd card is for backup. Mainly using cf card.

With and without burst shooting

Is there a difference in the speed of selecting cards?

Approximately how many DNG + JPG shots can be taken with a 128GB card?

thanks

so you are combining a fast CF express card with a slow SD card and than wonder why is the camera slow?

get what your budget reflects.

I just use one card most of the time.

Any high-quality UHS-II card will be good enough for still photography, unless you intend to shoot long bursts.

I have ordered a CF card, but my local agent has to wait for a month.

If I buy it on Amazon or bhphotovideo, I can get it quickly. There is no warranty or after-sales service in my area. If something goes wrong, I have to contact the head office of the memory card myself, which is quite troublesome.

The memory card is only covered by the warranty in the region where it was purchased. Otherwise, you have to send it back to the head office yourself, and the local agent will not handle it.

I'm going on a trip soon, and the agency didn't have time to let me get the CF card, so I just want to buy a usable SD card for emergency shooting during this trip.

UHS-II V90 is too expensive. It is more cost-effective to buy a CF card.

I don’t know if UHS-II V60 and UHS-I V30 are feasible in terms of speed? They are only for emergency use.(this trip)

Or cancel the CF card reservation locally Instead, buy a CF card that another brand has in stock.

thanks

I don't know what country you are ordering from. But I would not count on warranty service from many of this cards, most of them send you a new card.

But in my many years, one card was a problem in 20+ cards in use.

Just get a good CF card.

I have 2 Angerbird cards of 1TB and buy them at $199 each on Amazon + Sabrent CF reader for $30

these cards are approved by many companies to record 8K, Red does not suggest lightly.

 

note that the 1TB card is much faster than 512MB.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions I canceled my Essential Pro subscription

I originally ordered the Essential Pro because of its limited lifetime warranty. , waiting too long Decided to buy OWC Atlas Ultra instead

Angerbird cards of 1TB were also very attractive to me. The price difference was 110$. In the end, I chose owc.

thanks
