A practical way to use these data
Before buying media, write down the exact recording format, frame rate, bit depth, and intended slot. The specification establishes which card families fit each slot and the camera’s listed recording modes; use Sony’s manual and the card maker’s ratings to confirm the minimum sustained-write requirement for that exact mode. Do not treat the physical slot fit alone as proof that a card can sustain every codec/bitrate.
Keep the exact model code, region, and manual revision alongside any compatibility or maintenance decision. A family name alone may cover different configurations, accessories, radio bands, or instructions.
What these sources do not prove
- The cited specification does not establish a specific third-party card’s sustained performance, compatibility under every firmware version, or recording duration.
- A listed maximum mode is a camera format capability, not a guarantee for every card, temperature, lens, or shooting setup.
- This record is not a hands-on card test, purchase ranking, or statement of regional retail availability or price.
