Hallo

today i test this sd card Transcend SDXC UHS-I U3 128GB,in 4K recording work fine,If you have other recommendations a priest close..
 
I'm still using my Sandisk Extreme 64gb 40mbps U1 and U3 cards from my GH4 days, for both 4k and 1080p with no problems.
 
Wish I could the same. I'm a relatively new operator here -- coming from years with full sized Panasonic cameras. I've successfully shot about 5 hours of footage with my FS-5, in the XAVC 1080/30P / 50mpbs -- using 64GB SanDisk Extreme Pro 64GB cards. All of a sudden I'm receiving this message once I've formatted my cards: "this media does not support recording and playback of XAVC movies." Doesn't seem to matter if cards are set up from simultaneous or relay recording (altho I successfully used the camera with the simultaneous setting). Any help??

They must be SDXC cards. SDHC cards won't work.
 
You've solved the riddle & thanks very much: the 2nd batch of cards I bought were 32GB -- the SanDisk packaging says: "4K Ultra HD" -- why the heck should Sony care about the capacity?? -- anyway, now I know...
 
128 SanDisk Extreme Pro 95 MB's have been working very well for us. Considering moving to the 256's for all day work, they've gotten so cheap now I see no reason not to.
