Best Memory Cards For Fujifilm GFX100RF

The Fujifilm GFX100RF features a dual memory card configuration and supports UHS-II cards up to the V90 UHS-II speed class.

Do you need V90 or are V60 cards fine?

V90 cards are pretty expensive, and if you want to run in backup configuration, you’ll need to have identical cards. GFX files can also be quite large, depending on your compression mode, so you’ll likely want to start with a 128GB card to shoot for a few days without any issues. V60 cards are much less expensive and in terms of speed are fast enough, although they do have some limitations when shooting video.

The Case for V90 Cards: If you want to utilize all the camera’s capabilities, including shooting video at 720Mbps, and shooting in continuous burst RAW, then you need a V90 card.

The Case for V60 Cards: If you’re shooting casually and using a lot of film simulators, and not shooting 720Mbps video (most people won’t), then you can get by with V60 cards. Some of the new v60 cards are also very fast. The slower speed of these cards won’t matter as much if you’re using a lot of modified film simulators since the camera’s processor will be the bottleneck when it comes to offloading files to the card, especially if you’re adding grain or clarity settings to your HEIF files.

I actually shot with a V60 card quite a bit on the Fujifilm GFX100 II and never really felt like it was an issue.

If you shoot RAW+JPG, you could also do V90 in slot one for the RAW, and V60 in slot two for the JPGs. Since JPGs are a little smaller. This is usually what I do.

Here are some recommendations for V60 and V90 SD cards.

Recommended Memory Cards For The GFX100RF

Here is a list of a few great cards for the GFX100RF. I’ve also listed the fastest V60 SD cards currently available that I have tested. Go for the V90 cards if you want the fastest SD cards available, while the V60 are great for more casual use and photographers shooting more with JPG using heavily modified film simulators.
