Supported Memory Cards<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The Canon EOS R5 has two memory cards slots. Slot 1 supports CFexpress Type B Memory Cards and Slot 2 supports SD\/SDHC\/SDXC UHS-I and UHS-II memory cards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here are the theoretical maximum speeds of each card type:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- CFexpress Type-B: <\/strong>theoretical maximum transfer speeds of up to 2000MB\/s<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- UHS-II: <\/strong>theoretical maximum transfer speeds of up to 312MB\/s<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
The CFexpress-Type B cards will definitely clear the buffer the fastest and are therefore ideal for shooting fast bursts of images like you would shooting sports or birds in flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you primarily shoot single shots then the slower UHS-II or even UHS-I cards might be sufficient for your needs, although you can still benefit from the faster read times of the CFexpress Type-B cards when copying the files over to your computer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In-Camera Card Speed Comparison<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s our quick in-camera memory card speed comparison for the cards that we have tested so far in the R5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Clicking on the memory card name will take you to our complete speed and buffer tests results for that particular card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
