Sony G XQD Memory Card Review

The Sony G XQD card is the best card that is still in production. With Lexar being discontinued, Sony is now the one and only manufacturer of XQD memory cards. The Sony G XQD is a very fast card, but a touch slower than the Lexar 2933x with both read, write and in-camera performance. These Sony…
Lexar 2933X XQD Memory Card Review

The Lexar 2933X is last an only XQD memory card by Lexar. It’s rated for read speed of about 440MB/s, although expect to see much slower speeds if you’re using USB 3.0 memory card readers and don’t expect to see that kind of speed in any modern camera. For example the Nikon D850 only writes…
PNY Elite Performance U1 SD Memory Card Review

PNY (Paris New York) has made memory cards for some time and can be considered a trusted brand. The PNY Elite Performance U1 memory card is one of the best cards for the price. It doesn’t perform quite as quick as some of the best cards from brands like Sandisk, but it comes pretty close. …
PNY Elite Performance U3 SD Memory Card Review

PNY cards have been known for being a less expensive option while still putting out great performance. Compared to other brands, the PNY cards are a midrange card. In terms of performance, they aren’t super fast, but they aren’t slow either. Sometimes some Sony cameras have issues with them but other than that, they are…
Sony U3 SD Memory Card Review

Sony makes a great midrange UHS-I SD memory card. Actually these cards are my number one recommendation for Sony shooters who want to have reliable XAVC S 4k video capabilities. A lot of times Sony cameras just don’t like other cards and it seems to be completely random to have a camera that likes other…
Lexar 633X SD Memory Card Review

Lexar has always been known to make great UHS-II memory cards. The Lexar 2000x is one of the best UHS-II memory cards available to date. Their 633X UHS-I card however, is only just decent. It’s not slow, it’s just not fast compared to what the other memory card titans have to offer. Lexar cards will…
Samsung EVO U1 SD Memory Card Review

The Samsung EVO card is one of Samsung’s slowest cards. It’s also a fairly old card as the new models of the EVO cards put out some decent performance. I wouldn’t buy this card since there are so many better options out there at great prices with superior performance. I would even take the Sandisk…
Samsung Pro U1 SD Memory Card Review

The Samsung Pro U1 SD Memory card is a decent card from Samsung. It performs about the same as the Sandisk Extreme Plus except this card comes in a U1 variant, which could create problems for videographers. Samsung does have a U3 version of this card but it’s much more difficult to find. It may…
Sandisk Ultra SD Memory Card Review

The Sandisk Ultra is sort of Sandisk Junk card. They aren’t yet available in the U3 or V30 speed class and their performance in general is very slow. But not all is bad with the Ultra cards. They do have some very impressive read speeds, but write speeds are usually on the bottom of the…
