Experiencing very long storage times to SD cards


Recommended Posts

It would be nice if this had an easy to point to cause and say ‘do this instead’ as an answer, but this quickly gets complicated the more you look into it.

Fujifilm does recommend the 2000x series instead of the 1667x series you are using even over the next in line 1800x series.

This link may give you some idea of what to expect (use the 128GB and 256Gb tabs to thin the results table a bit). Your card is not explicitly tested, but the much faster 2000x series is as well as other Lexar cards that are similar to yours. The “all” tab includes results for the 1800x series.

It does get more complicated after that. If you are modifying any of the settings that require the image to be highly processed before saving, this will affect saving speeds, for example changing the Clarity setting can dramatically slow things down regardless of which card you are using,

Another factor is whether or not you are using cards in both slots, in which backup mode, etc. as well as are the cards the same size, rated at the same speed, how old are they, how full are they, how fragmented are they, etc. ???

p.s. Welcome to the forum.
