    The issue with Lexar cards is that at some port of lexar’s production they had a bad set of cards and a good set of cards, but they kept the bad ones in and never gave any label indication on which ones is from the bad batch or not. So it’s always a crap shoot to see which one you will get.

    Great insight, thanks for sharing! I only have Canon L lenses and I have thought about stepping out to try out something else until now. I already have the ginourmous (but stellar in IQ)I 28-70, but I use it mostly for photography and although it looks awesome with video, it is just too impractical and it does not have IS and of course there is the crop factor since it is RF. Therefore, I am considering the sigma 24-70 that you mentioned, it is "relatively" inexpensive AND has IS AND does not weight a ton. I am guessing that auto iris mode does not work with this lens? In any case, not a big deal. Also, love your t-shirt design too, just ordered! Cheers!

    Angelbird V90 works. Sony Tough should work. The Mb/s specification listed on the card itself can be misleading. Something about: the camera wants a card that can take constant bitrate, but the MB/s number on the card is for variable bit rate. Don't quote me on that.... The Sandisk cards don't have a "V90" designation, so I'm a little suspicious of them.

    Two situations where not having a LUT on the HDMI out is an issue: (1) if you want to show a client your framing, but want to record log; (2) if you want to output a livestream at the same time, but want to record log. Surely Canon can fix this with a firmware update? Sorts of issues you might (or might not!) get with unsupported EF glass: error in information display; peripeheral illumination/chromatic aberration disabled; autofocus might not be entirely reliable. Some quirks I've noticed with the camera.... (1) no auto ISO in Log mode, and that auto ISO seems to have 800 minimum; (2) it's a pain to quickly do AF tracking -- menu dive to set to continuous focus (you can't set a button to continuous focus), then press another button to activate tracking, then tap screen, then hit another button to start.

Currently most people have had no issues with v90 cards from ProGrade, AngelBird or SONY.

  • @avdcam

    Yah the Lexar's suck, they are not approved afaik. But keep in mind, in general , the rated speeds on the sd card are not relevant to sustained recording speeds. The V90 and V60 refer to the sustained available speeds for recording video, 60 megabytes per second and 90 MB/s respectively. The recording format internally is actually 160 megabita/second, or mbps. In other words, the video recording is writing to the card, for the 160mbps codec at 20 megabytes per second after converting bits to bytes. That's why the V60 card is more than enough for your needs. The V90 cards are recommended for the intra frame 410 Mbps codec or the new raw modes. Where the v60 card might just barely squeek by. Also, the newer firmware did add the same lookup table over the HDMI. The Lexar cards were notorious for not working at all, and since Sandisk doens't make V90 cards I went to ProGrade and it work really well and Canon approves them too. Avoid Lexar, they are the issue, it's not the camera, those cards are just poorly made and no to spec. Also be careful with third party batteries, they aren't tested nearly as well, and usually have way less charge cycles vs the brand name batteries. So you end up buying more down the road when they start to volt down loose capacity.

I couldn't find any v90 Sony's when I was in the market so I took gamble on the Pro Master Rugged Cine series - got a set of 128's and 256's, solid cards no issues :) Pro Master is owned by Delkin I believe, they have a killer guarantee on their cards as well and are cheaper than the Sony's.
