Re: Memory card(s) for G9

I think it depends on what you are going to do with the camera. I shoot mostly wildlife and write RAW to both cards in high speed mode with a fair amount of video as well. I bought the 2-pack of Lexar Professional 128GB cards for $65 on Amazon in February. I bought some a couple months later for my R6 and they were $75. Now they are $92. They have worked great in both cameras. Use something slower if that works for you. When I bought the R6 I used the 2 from the G9 for a few days while the new ones were on the way and I used older UHS1 SanDsik 128 cards in the G9 and it was aggravating to me because I would shoot a couple of bursts and have to wait while the camera wrote to the card. It never locked up but would slow down considerable, For single shot and most video I don’t know if you’d notice the difference. Shoot bursts and 4K 60P and I think you will. The Lexar Professionals are relatively cheap cards that work very nicely IMO. They seem to actually live up to their specs.
