Memory Card for my new LX100

Hi,

I am a little confused about the speed classes for SD cards.

Is this a good choice for the LX100 allowing me to use all its featured - e.g. recording 4K video - which I think will push the speeds hardest.

It said it is UHS-3 which is what I think I need?

Thanks for the help.

Looks good, almost too good at that price, c.f. the others of the type... and I myself would be wary of their "In stock on February 20, 2016" message!

You might prefer either to order something that's actually available today - or at least to wait until that one definitely arrives?

PS - Don't use 4K, but have got a pair of the 64GB version of these that work well for RAW + JPG shooting in various cameras...


Not Sandisk, but seem fine.. though only a 60MB/sec write speed max claimed?

Your link shows that you cannot trust the RRP (Recommended Retail Price) of any product advertised even by Amazon. Just look at the variation between the different memory sizes, it does not make sense.
