Thank you for your help in advance

I was reading the manual for canon t6 and it was saying it will not have benefit with UHS cards would it be useful if i got a sandisk extreme or extreme pro with this camera or should i just buy a simple class 10 card.

Big welcome to the forum!

I highly recommend the SanDisk Extreme Pro cards (UHS-I interface). I've never experienced a problem with one in any camera through several hundred thousand pics (buy from a reputable source though so you don't get a clone). Slower cards can slow down your read/write times, and take longer to clear the buffer. Some (slow) class 10 cards can even be problematic for video.

None of my Canon cameras benefit from the UHS-II interface ( however it doesn't slow them down either). Your choice if you have the extra bucks (and want to try to "future-proof" a bit). Personally I'd just recommend getting a faster speed (UHS-II) card in the future when you need it tho.

Happy shooting!
