Sony a9II vs Sony a9 Buffer Testing

Tag The Shooter posted the first a9 vs a9II comparison I have seen showing off the new and improved Sony a9II buffer. His testing is a bit rough and he gets a bit lost with his words so the data below is the most valuable thing from the video since I wrote it while watching. Tag tries to remain scientific but forgets a few steps at times so the picture counts aren’t always accurate.

He also confuses card and camera names in the video towards the end which makes it a bit hard to follow. Below you can find the data and the cards.
