The Sony ZV-E10 II features a single memory card slot that supports UHS-II SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards. It's also backwards compatible with the slower UHS-I SD/SDHC/SDXC cards. You can also use microSD memory cards providing an appropriate adaptor is used.
For the best performance we would recommend the faster UHS-II SDXC cards rather than the slower UHS-I cards. SDXC cards are 64GB and larger, this will also ensure that your video files are not broken into 4GB chunks.

Memory Card Requirements for Video Recording
If you want to record in all of the video recording formats supported by the ZV-E10 II then we would recommend purchasing a UHS-II SDXC card that is V90 rated. This will also offload the files from your camera to computer as quickly as possible.
However, you can save money by purchasing slower V60 or V30 rated cards if the recording format you plan to shoot in supports them. You'll find further details on the minimum memory card requirements for all of the file formats supported by the ZV-E10-II in our video guide here.
Recommended Memory Card Size
For photographers we would recommend a minimum card size of 64GB. This will allow you to shoot approximately 1600 Compressed RAW images or 2900 Extra Fine JPEG images. With a 128GB card you could shoot approximately 3200 Compressed RAW images or 5800 Extra Fine JPEG images.
For videographers we would recommend a minimum card size of 128GB. This will allow you to record 1h 10min of video in XAVC HS 4K at 60p/50p (200M) or 25 minutes if you want to shoot in XAVC S-I 4K at 60p/50p (500/600M).
