Best Memory Cards for FujiFilm X-A7

Looking for the best memory cards for FujiFilm X-A7 ? Here we picked out the top recommended & fastest SD cards for the FujiFilm X-A7 mirrorless camera.

The FujiFilm X-A7 mirrorless camera has a single SD card slot that supports UHS-I SD cards. That means there are no benefits to get a UHS-II card, unless you really need fast read speeds (which enables you to transfer files to your computer quicker).

Featuring a 24.2MP APS-C CMOS sensor, the FujiFilm X-A7 (AdoramaB&H and Amazon) is capable of recording UHD 4K video at 30 fps and FHD video at 60 fps, as well as full-resolution continuous stills shooting at up to 6 fps. Simply put, the Fujifilm X-A7 features an all-new 24MP APS-C X-Trans CMOS III sensor with the same color reproduction, famous film simulations, quality, and abilities as the sensors riding in their top-tier X-system cameras like the X-T3 and X-Pro2, and it is a sleek mirrorless camera capable of apt stills and video recording.

As we’ve said above, the FujiFilm X-A7 has only one card slot that is limited to UHS-I speeds. So for the users of X-A7, we highly recommend getting a fast and reliable UHS-I SD card like the SanDisk Extreme PRO UHS-I SDXC Card 170 MB/s (V30, U3). But if you have some other cameras that support the UHS-II cards, buying an UHS-II card would maximize your advantages and could be a better choice.

Below are our top recommended & fastest SD cards for FujiFilm X-A7 mirrorless camera based on the speed and price. Continue reading “Best Memory Cards for FujiFilm X-A7”
