Thanks. So far, I've just taken the defaults on video. I did set it to shoot RAW and Video on card 1 and JPG on card 2.

I only had 1 V90 card from my old camera set up (Kingston 128gb). and several V60. I currently have a 64gb V60 Sony Tough in slot 2 to catch the jpgs. I do want to get some more V90 cards and probably a 256gb for slot 1 and 128gbs for slot 2. Not sure how much difference V90 vs. V60 makes but if I'm buying new cards might as well get the faster ones. My old camera used XQD in slot 1.

Appreciate the response.

In my testing not all V90 and v60 cards are made equal. I’ve had v90 cards that only clear the buffer half a second faster than some of my v60 cards. And one v60 that is slower to clear the buffer than a government IT project takes to complete.

I've noticed that too.  I have found the Sony Tough V60 cards pretty fast.  I did a disk speed read/write test on the Kingston V90 and it was faster read and write than the V60 Sony card but not by a huge margin.

I was an IT project manager for 30+ years (not in government though) and you are absolutely correct on the speed by which government projects are completed.  In my career, I had to wait on a few government projects to complete before I could implement the software we were building.
