Compatibility and types of memory cards for the Sony A1<\/h2>\n\n

The Sony A1 accepts two memory card formats: CFexpress Type A and SD UHS-I\/UHS-II<\/strong>. Both slots are compatible, but performance will vary. The faster CFexpress Type A (up to 800MB\/s write) is ideal for 30fps bursts or 8K video, while the UHS-II SDs (260-300MB\/s) offer good value for most 4K photo or video uses. <\/p>\n\n

The CFexpress Type A stands out for its speed and physical robustness, but its price is significantly higher. A 160GB CFexpress Type A costs around $270, compared to $80 for a 128GB UHS-II SD. UHS-II SD is sufficient for moderate burst shooting or 4K video, but CFexpress Type A is becoming a must-have for demanding recordings<\/strong> like 8K or continuous roundups. <\/p>\n\n
