Sony a850 CF & Mem Stick
« on: July 11, 2010, 11:48:41 am »

I am scratching my head trying to figure out how to use my a850 so that the CF card records RAW data while the Memory Stick Duo records JPGs simultaneously.  Is this possible with the a850?

No, unfortunately not.  
You can only select to use one of the cards at the time.
I was always hoping for a firmware revision to save on both cards at the same time for safety but I think only Nikon's higher end bodies support this.

So do the Canon 1D cams.  Too bad about the Sony.
