Received Sony a7siii today -- SD card Sony Tough v90 isn't compatible!

So... just received mine in the mail today. I put in a Sony Tough v90 64gb 300Mbps read/write card and it says: "Unable to use card in slot 1" :(

What the hell, this is certainly fast enough and it wont even allow me to go passed this menu

This reviewer also noticed the issue. I can confirm they havent fixed it.

Wow this is the response I got from Sony. Apparently the cards are being recalled because of this issue. This is pretty big news:

I have checked that some of the Sony Tough card will not work with the Sony ILCE7SM3 camera and we will process the replacement for the SD card.

Yes. Definitely the replacement cards will work with your latest camera and to the older model as well.

There was a recall about it before this camera came out. The cards seemed to work fine for photos but had issues with video. They replaced mine weeks ago.

I have a Lexar 128GB SDXC V90 that won't work in my Sony a7siii. Can anyone help? Here's a video to show the problem: https://youtu.be/5jX5g9lY8PE
