Did anyone ever answer this?
Are the PNY Elite Performance SD cards, do they work in the BMPCC shooting RAW without dropping frames?
I just bought one, waited a week for delivery and it is dead on arrival! PNY were no help at all, they said, "oh yeah, you should just send it back", meaning back to where I bought it from (Amazon, not prime, so I'm going to have to wait another week WTF)
I want the 128GB card, or bigger, so I can shoot longer, and I want to shoot RAW. As well as the PNY cards are lower priced. And I don't see why, according to their advertised speeds, they shouldn't work?
I just got my BMPCC a bit over a week ago and I've been using a very low cost 32GB SD card that I didn't expect to work at all, it's actually a "Polaroid" SD Card! But it lets me record ProResHQ at 23.98 with no dropped frames and I can shoot RAW for about 5 seconds before I get dropped frames. This is a slow card. I tested with the AJA System Test application and it shows around 28mbps write and 50mbps read. So, the PNY at their 90mbs read and 60mbs write, should have not problems with any ProRes and RAW. But, is that the case?
Do I just need to order 10 of these to get one good one!?
I'm also thinking I'd like the 256, or even 512 cards, for the longer shoot.
So... who has the answer!?
Where's that Blackmagic guy?
This is like the Apple website, where Apple NEVER gets involved and answers questions...
Thank you, if you're out there and could please answer this Q!
