I have a Sony A6000 and was wondering if I up graded to a faster memory card if it would increase my shot buffer?

In many cases you'll see diminishing results or no improvement after a point, where the bottleneck becomes the camera hardware itself. 5DmkII | 24-70 f/2.8L II | Pentax 645Z | 55/2.8 SDM | 120/4 Macro | 150/2.8 IF

Sep 05, 2016 17:30 | #3 I have been using a 80mps 32 gig card for a while and found that after about 15 shots the camera starts to lag. I am going to do a test with the 150mps card that I have but just wanted some clarification. I was hoping that I 300mps card would help speed up the camera. God created the beauty.

(2 edits in all) | I think you may be mixing up speed measurements. 1x is equivalent to 1.2Mb, so 100x is 120 *Megabits* per second, or 15 *Megabytes* per second, which is the unit of measure I'm talking about. 60MB/s means a card speed of 400x for example. 5DmkII | 24-70 f/2.8L II | Pentax 645Z | 55/2.8 SDM | 120/4 Macro | 150/2.8 IF
