F5: F5 + AXS R5 or F55

You can easily shoot 2k on the F5 on plain SXS cards and PRO versions will let you shoot up to 120fps on the F5 no problem (once the camera can actually shoot 120fps via firmware.)

If you are shooting RAW and proxy at the same time, again the regular SXS cards should be fine given the bitrates are so low for either MPEG or XAVC in 2k. (80Mbps for 2k XAVC @ 24fps, 40Mbps for HD MPEG @ 24fps)

I'm shooting 4k 60p (600Mbps) to older SXS Pro cards no problem. (although not guaranteed media according to Sony when you stick the card in).

Also remember however that the newer Pro Plus media will offload faster as well, so its not just about recording speeds..

I don't want to go too far off topic. Raw 2k seems to offer the colour flexibility I want and not drown my clients in data which I would have to charge for.
It is not to me clear how this can be well implemented from the 4k sensor so for me to buy now has a known unknown. Also there are various minor things like getting audio out off the menu and on to the pot that I perceive as critical to make the camera a functioning commercial tool for the solo shooter - these things have to happen for the cam to work for me - while the image is great the ergonomics still leave a lot to be desired..IMO

In fact started a seperate thread. . http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?313112-F5-What-is-missing
