Fujifilm XT100 | Memory Card Speed Test

The Fuji X-T100 takes UHS-I memory cards and has a single card slot. You can use memory cards up to 256GB in size. I tested all the most popular UHS-II and UHS-I memory cards in the X-T100 and here are the results.

Top 5 Recommended Memory Cards

Here is a quick list of the top 5 fastest memory cards, or I should say, best-performing memory cards for the price. You can buy bigger cards than what I’ve tested in the camera and the X-T100 will take cards up to 256GB in size. However, I find 64GB to be the sweet spot in size to price for a camera of this performance.

For an entry-level camera by Fujifilm, the XT100 performed very well in terms of memory card write speeds. The buffer is a little small and the continuous frame rate is a little low, but the all-in-all performance was great with most of the cards.

I recommend going with UHS-I SD memory cards since the X-T100 does not take advantage of UHS-II technology.

Other Cards To Consider

For some reason, Delkin and Kingston did not perform well in this camera. I’m not sure why perhaps they did not have a great connection (dirty contacts). Usually, both those brands perform very well in Fujifilm cameras, but who knows – the X-T100 has a different processor and different sensor.

PNY also produces a decent card. Sometimes they have some issues with quality control, but I haven’t had any issues with them yet.

What Size Memory Card Should You Get?

With the price of memory cards being so affordable now, I really recommend 64GB cards. With a 64GB card, you can record a little bit of video and shoot for a few days without having to worry about running out of space. However, if you’re meticulous about clearing off your cards, 32GB is more than fine for the average user.

Where To Find The Best SD Memory Cards

With counterfeit memory cards on the rise, you really need to be careful where you buy your memory cards. Adorama, BHphoto, Bestbuy, Samy’s and Walmart will always be your best option. Actual stores. Never buy a memory card off Ebay unless it’s from a trusted seller like Adorama or BHphoto. There are also rumors that counterfeit cards have made their way to Amazon, so to protect yourself, always double-check your cart and make sure the seller fulfilling the order is a trusted store.

Best Memory Cards Fujifilm XT100 | Bottom Line

With the Fujifilm X-T100 not having any crazy specs in terms of continuous shoot speed or buffer size, the memory card you choose isn’t going to make or break your camera’s performance and you don’t need to go crazy on expensive UHS-II memory cards. I really recommend going with UHS-I cards as they are the best value for this camera and you’ll find one of the three I recommended to be more than enough for casual shooting.
