Hi Don,
Any idea of the SDHC recommended by SONY?

Hi Raf,

This is copied from the Sony UK website:

“At the time of writing (January 2010), Sony Professional recommends only the latest Class10 SDHC cards. Using 8-, 16-, or 32-GB media, approximately 35, 70, or 140 minutes of recording (in SP mode) can be achieved.

Please note, it is not recommended to utilise the Slow Motion recording function due to speed limitations of SD Card media. The nature of the adaptor and SD Card media will also mean slightly less reliability than SxS media – caution should be exercised when turning off XDCAM EX hardware during recording. XDCAM EX hardware will need a firmware upgrade to use MEAD-SD01 – please see specifications for more information.”

You’re welcome. I hope this is the information you wanted.

That is.
I’m working with the Nano, but at the same time I record in the SxS or SDHC.
Is a back-up on the fly and also interesting for the footage (interviews, etc) that I know I will delete after the job.
