60 FPS recording

PostWed Apr 03, 2024 1:43 pm

Hello every one,

will this SD card work to shoot 60 FPS 4k; 12:1; BRAW for 2-3 minutes at once? I have the V30 version, and it cuts off after a couple of seconds:
SanDisk Extreme PRO SDHC UHS-II V90 128 GB Memory Card
Link: https://www.amazon.de/SanDisk-Extreme-S ... B08YF7PB14

Or is there another alternative (like a CFast 2.0 or an external SSD)? I couldn't find any clear indication on the recommended storage media unit list, which guarantees a constant 60FPS recording in 4k without dropping frames.
I was unsure, because I saw a reviewer stating, that even a V90 SD card can't write 60FPS 4K RAW without dropping frames.

Cheers,

Dawid

Thank you for your help!
I was eying the SanDisk variant with the same specs, but wasn't sure. I'll just go for the Sony one.

Cheers,

I recently picked up this card. I could NOT make it fail on the P4K. Even at DCI/60/Q0, this card would not drop frames!
