Hello all, I've recently purchased a Sony a7R4, and installed two SD cards. I've set it up to sort write RAW & JPEG images, which appears to work correctly, writing RAW files & videos to primary SD card (slot 1), and JPEGs to slot 2. However I have trouble accessing the JPEGs - when connecting the camera to a Windows 10 machine, it shows the camera & internal storage, but that only accesses first SD card. To get the files off the second SD card I have to eject it & use an SD reader. The directory structure also seems different on the second card. Does anyone know of a workaround, or have a preferred way of accessing the files from multiple SD cards?

I recently picked up an a7s II after years of using Canon products almost exclusively. The camera itself is fantastic and impresses me more and more every day, but the transition, as is standard I'm sure, is kind of rocky, though I feel like I'm slowly homing in on how to use it best. Anyway, I have a very simple/probably inane question. I'm still using my old SD cards, all of which do not let me shoot in anything other than MP4 and AVCHD. I'd like to shoot in XAVC but I'm having trouble figuring out which new SD card to purchase. It is my understanding that the a7s II requires: -class 10 -sdxc -UHS speed class 3 Those things considered, it looks like Sony's own SD card here should work: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1151542-REG/sony_sf64ux2_tq_64gb_sdhc_uhs_1_memory_card.html However, if you look at the Q&A section for the a7s II body (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1186034-REG/sony_ilce7sm2_b_alpha_a7sii_mirrorless_digital.html), the first and most popular question is in regards to the fact that the person purchased that exact SD card and cannot shoot 4k. The person responding states you need a Class 10 UHS-3 card to shoot 4k. Searching for a Class 10 UHS-3 only yields 'off-brand' SD cards, and I can't find anything like Sandisk or Sony that has that marker. So, if the SD card linked above, which is the one that is recommended by B&H, doesn't work, what does? I've already purchased a class 10 U3 card, but it didn't work because it is sdhc (though I had read that it being sdhc does not matter as much as its speed class/it being class 10). Am I missing something? Can someone who has an a7s II tell me what SD cards hold up? Thank you.
