Are these body only?

Re SD speed: UHSII would be an easy way for Panasonic to guarentee 400mbps recording. Considering that user error is high on their list, they will probably make it impossible to fail.

I'm expecting a big greyed out menu item without UHSII cards.

If you use two cards it still splits video among them :-) But 4gb splits is really sick, yes.

I don't get it. You mean it splits the video when it writes to the next card? Or that in multi-card mode it splits video's into 4gb chunks?

First thing. As card is full it stops recording on it closing file and restarts on another card.

So it loses some frames in the process or buffers somehow?

I have a question: I am using a 128 GB Sandisc Class 10 U3 R95 - W 60 MB/s and a 128 GB Transcend Class 10 U3 R90 MB/s card. Both have never failed neither in the GH4 nor the GH5.

Now the initial question was:

When I was taking pictures of birds in flight recently, https://flickr.com/photos/150332016@N06/sets/72157681824825243 I ran into problem with the buffering when taking burst shots with jpeg and raw. There were new birds coming but the buffer was full and the GH5 busy wigh writing to the SD card, before I could take pictures again) The camera was set, so that it filled one card and then use the other once the first is full. Now my question is: How do I distribute the files best, so that the buffer is not filled too fast? Jpeg in one and raw in the other? Also, if I use a UHSII card in one slot, would I then send jpeg and raw to the same slot? I think I am not into the future 400 mbit of a future firmware upgrad, so for video, my current 4 cards with 128 GB and 95 mbits are fast enough, so if a faster UHSII card writes pictures faster on the card, this would allow to empty the buffer faster and to shoot (burst pictures) longer. So how should the files be distributed for fastest writing on the card? Thanks.

Then I made a frw tests: When using H or M in burst mode, the GH5 takes about 70 pictures (jpeg and Raw) in about 10 seconds and then needs 50-55 seconds to empty the buffer. No matter if jpeg and raw is written on one or separated the writing process on two cards, no matter if H or M mode. It is the same.

In L mode it takes about 2 Minutes until the buffer is full and over 200 pictures are taken in that time. Again, it needs 50-55 seconds to clear the buffer.

I think I need a UHS II V60 or V90 card, to empty the buffer faster, right? Or any other possibility?

@Vesku Yes, i tried different kind of shootings. The 4K/6K version indeed did not make problems. But I also wanted RAW files and I wanted to try different settings.

Also, 4K/6K has the video Autofocus and burst has photo Autofocus, which is much faster and for flying birds, fast AF is crucial.

And for I will be in South-Africa in summer, I wanted to test different settings and see the limitations and find workarounds. But thanks for the input.

Most interesting price deprecation happened with NX1 and NX500 from Samsung. :-) It just shows how stupid management was.
