I recently purchased a Sony a7 IV and need recommendations for the best SD card to use with it. I'll be shooting high-resolution photos and 4K video. What card offers the optimal balance of speed, reliability, and capacity for this camera? Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
For shooting high quality 4K video, you'd better to get CFExpress Type A cards, such as Lexar CFexpress Type A Gold Series: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Ntt=Lexar+Professional+CFexpress+Cinema+Quality+LCAGOLD160G+RNENG&BI=8941&KBID=10361&SID=12345&DFF=d50
You'd better also take a look at UHS-II V90 SD cards, they are much cheaper than CFexpress Type-A cards.
I use Lexar Silver series CFexpress Type-A card. Cheaper but good. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Ntt=Lexar+Professional+CFexpress+Compatible+LCAEXSL160G+RNENG&BI=8941&KBID=10361&SID=12345&DFF=d50
You'd better to get CFexpress Type-A cards in order to max use your a7 IV.
