Memory card speed matters more than you think. A fast memory card isn’t just a luxury, it is essential if you shoot bursts, high resolution images, or video. Nothing is worse than having to stop shooting because the memory of the camera house is full and can’t copy the images to the memory card fast enough. Some benefits of a fast memory card are.

·         Sustained burst shooting without the camera buffer filling up

·         Faster write speeds, reducing waiting time between shots

·         Reliable 4K/8K video recording

·         Quicker file transfers to your computer

Look for cards with high write speeds, not just high read speeds. Standards like UHS, V60, V90, or CFexpress make a big difference.

Mentioning memory cards, you should bring at least one extra memory card when doing photography. This is handy if your memory card is faulty or you have forgotten to empty it, and it is full. Remember to bring extra memory card in some form of casing to protect it from damage.
