How to choose memory cards

Match card standard and guaranteed write speed to burst shooting and video codec requirements.

Core principle

Match card standard and guaranteed write speed to burst shooting and video codec requirements.

Practical workflow

Buy from trusted sources, test new cards before paid work and format them in camera.

1. Define the image goal and working conditions.
2. Choose baseline settings and make a test frame.
3. Check focus, histogram and critical image areas.
4. Record the settings that worked and why you changed them.

What to verify before finishing

Several moderate cards reduce the scale of a single failure but require disciplined labeling.

Do not treat a single rule as a guarantee. Conditions, equipment design and output size change the requirements. Record settings and conclusions in the AparatTo planner.
