Looking to upgrade from my old DSLR to the new Nikon Z6 III and need advice on memory cards. I shoot mostly stills with some 4K video work. What's the recommended card speed and capacity? I've heard CFexpress Type B is preferred over SD cards for this camera's capabilities, but the price difference is significant. Are there specific brands that work best? Would a 128GB CFexpress card be sufficient for mixed shooting, or should I go larger?

The Nikon Z6 III has dual card slots: one CFexpress Type B and one UHS-II SD. So just choose best selling ones.

For your Nikon Z6 III, CFexpress Type B cards are highly recommended for 4K video and high-speed stills due to superior performance. Aim for cards with at least 250 MB/s write speeds, or VPG400 for demanding video. While 128GB can work for mixed shooting, consider 256GB or 512GB for extensive 4K. Top brands include SanDisk, Lexar, Angelbird, and ProGrade Digital.
