Good question - I meant to include that. Using the card that B&H included with the purchase: Sandisk Extreme 80MB/s Class 10 SDXC. The 2nd card slot has a slightly older card: Sandisk Extreme 45MB/s Class 10 SDXC.
Both 32GB cards. And to fix my typo, I was of course recording DNG and not DND image files. stan On Nov 7, 2013, at 12:34 PM, Darren Addy wrote: > Stan, > Thanks for doing this.
