For you high rollers out there, don't jump on the bandwagon and start trading in your SxS cards for SDHC alternatives. the soon to be released Arri Alexa will have 2 SxS slots. so, start saving your pennies because those expensive SxS cards might just have a viable use after all.

And you think the SDHCs won't work on the Alexa?

yup! 50/50 guess right now isn't it.

Actually, since that thing is going to write ProRes, the SDHC cards won't be fast enough. Even so, I think Arri would be smart to allow ARRIRAW to be written to the cards. That's a pretty fair deal. I'd hate to have to lug around a Codex or whatever.
