FAQs
Is this card waterproof?
Yes, the card is designed with protection against moisture and environmental water exposure.
Can I use this in an older UHS-I camera?
Yes, it is backward compatible, but it will operate at the maximum speed supported by your camera's UHS-I interface.
What does the V90 rating mean?
V90 stands for Video Speed Class 90, meaning the card guarantees a minimum sustained write speed of 90 MB/s, essential for 4K and 8K video.
How do I update the card firmware?
Angelbird cards often feature user-updatable firmware; check the official Angelbird website for their Mac/Windows firmware update tools.
Is this card safe for airport X-ray machines?
Yes, the card is shielded to be resistant to airport security X-ray scanners.
Does the write-protect switch affect camera performance?
No, the switch is purely mechanical and only acts as a safety lock to prevent data loss; it does not impact read/write speeds.
Troubleshooting
Camera reports a card error or won't recognize the card.
Power off the camera, remove the card, and check for any debris on the pins. Ensure the mechanical write-protect switch is not in the locked position.
Slow transfer speeds when copying files to a computer.
Verify that you are using a UHS-II compatible card reader. Using a standard UHS-I or USB 2.0 reader will significantly bottleneck the performance.
Video recording stops unexpectedly.
Check if the card is nearly full or if the camera's internal buffer is overheating. Ensure the 'Stable Stream' isn't interrupted by background camera operations.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use this card, insert it into the designated UHS-II SD slot on your camera. While the card is backward compatible with UHS-I devices, you will not reach V90 speeds unless your camera body specifically supports the UHS-II interface. For data offloading, use a dedicated UHS-II SD card reader connected to a USB 3.1 or Thunderbolt port to take full advantage of the transfer speeds. When not in use, store the card in a protective case to keep the contacts clean. If the card surface is dirty, wipe it gently with a dry, lint-free cloth; avoid using liquid cleaners on the card pins.
