Title: Zoom F3 - Micro SD cards
Post by: swordfish on May 25, 2026, 10:58:14 AM

I just bought a Zoom F3 in the yard sale and it came with a 8GB card.  Need a larger card and don't know what I shall buy at the present. Since the Zoom approved list is 3 years old.

Found this 64GB card, but maybe there are better options out there.

FYI I am located in Europe

I've successfully used SanDisk Ultra's in my F3 for many shows, mostly at 32fp/48 and 32fp/96 but I just did my first show at 32fp/192 and it worked just fine. Ultra's and the blue Lexar 633x's have been great for me.
