The new Sony RX100 IV is a pretty amazing little camera. I haven’t gotten my hands on one yet but I’m really looking forward to it. A couple of the coolest features in my book are the 4K video capture and the HD slow motion at up to 1000 fps.
Check out this video captured handheld at 1000fps.

It’s a pity that there is nowhere mentioned (neither in the normal manual(s), nor in the 4K and Slo Mo manual of this camera that were delivered in the Sony Box) and even nowhere yet online – if the camera Sony DSC -RX100M4 is (compatible to) or able to use Sandisks’ SDXC Cards of the type UHS II !? Particularly I am talking about the Sandisk SDXC 64GB Extreme PRO 280MB/s UHS-II – Card.
Because there are two lines of cupper contacts on the backside of these sort of cards for quicker speeds….and registration that might reduce the ‘heat’ which can be produced by using the highest frame rates in 4K or slow motion…
Even after contacting them (Sony) in Europe, they couldn’t deliver any information on this issue, because it isn’t their brand of memory cards. So now I should come in contact with the Sandisk Cie !?
Is there anyone in the world that has the same (or similar) question?
Would be great to add these results/come-outs afterwards….somewhere online on fora or additional info in advertising for this brilliant piece of compact camera!
Sony’s own specifications list it as compatible up to UHS-I SDHC and SDXC cards. http://www.sony.net/Products/di/en-us/products/f5kd/specifications.html?contentsTop=1
While you can insert a UHS-II card, it won’t use the additional bus contacts found on the card but will only run up to UHS-I speeds.
