- iwasakabukiman 8y agoThis was my first thought. I work in video production and we always carry around extra SD cards because our camera chews through them so fast. We use Sony FS5s and they can fill a 128 GB card in an hour with 4K video.
- mseidl 8y agoWith my 5d3 raw video I get 24 minutes of 1080p on 128gb. But I have to use a really fast cf card, because the sd cards aren't fast enough. It writes at around 100MB/sec for 14bit raw.

- kalleboo 8y agoVideo cameras can be able to shoot at higher bitrates than a post-processed 25fps Blu-ray, just using the same calculator as that site for 60fps you get 164 GB/hr for 4k
- jws 8y agoWhich is about 45MB/second, about half of the published write speed for these 1TB cards. The SD standards have been moving up the transfer rates. The UHS-III does 624MB/sec. The new SD Express standard will do 985 MB/sec by presenting a PCIe Gen3 or NVMe directly. (Obviously more contacts, but they are backward compatible with the older interfaces.) They just announced the SD Express interface for microSD cards as well. I'm not sure any products are available for SD Express yet.
- jdietrich 8y agoThey're of limited utility in this application because of poor write speeds. Most high-end 4K cameras use Cfast, XQD, SxS or SATA recording media, because SD cards are a significant bottleneck.
