|---|---|
| XAVC S 4K · 200 Mb/s | SanDisk Extreme PRO SDXC UHS-I 128 GB · U3 / V30 |
| XAVC S-I 4K · 600 Mb/s | SanDisk Extreme PRO SDXC UHS-II V90 128 GB · V90 |
At 200 Mb/s, budget around 76 minutes on a 128 GB card with 10% space reserved. Use this to plan a shoot. Actual bitrate varies by setting and scene.
