I need a 32gb memory card to run in my Go Pro HD Hero camera for an upcoming white water rafting trip. I saw some high speed sandisk ones at BestBuy but they wanted $100 for them.
Does this price sound right? Do I need a 'high speed card' to shoot 1080p at 30fps? |

I hate to say it, but I would go with a class 10 card. I have an HD Hero and I use a class 10 32GB card in it.
You might try looking for your cards at "microcenter" online. They usually have some better prices. I have the class 10 PNY 32GB card. The lower class cards make the video choppy. (I know they say you can use a class 4) just my $.02. Good luck |

Best Buy sells at ridiculously high retail prices. Check out Newegg.com.
There are 32GB SDHC Class 10 flash memory cards available for $38.99. |

A point that I forgot to mention in my range report post is that, I too, went and bought one of the newly discounted class 10 32gig cards.
It arrived on Fri for Mon shoot. The Canon HF S100 did not see it as a high speed card and it held back the higher resolution settings because of that. I bought a 32 gig class 6 card and it reads fine for the highest resolution. |
