Sandisk Extreme as they've both said are pretty reliable. 64GB cards seem to be the sweet spot in quality and cost to storage capacity ratio.

I bought 2 cards and reliased after that it would not do 4K... So back to the shop and look for Sandisk that has 4K on the packet. As a normal photographer for many years I prefer to use a couple of cards rather than one big one... Just in case one fails... And I have had it happen.. for a weding of course !!

I would agree with all above, Sandisk extreme cards will cover your needs and are easily available at reasonable price. Although you shouldn't need the 'Pro' version, but they might be a bit faster in transferring data to your computer if that's important to you, but are twice the price of the non pro version of the extreme.

This one worked a treat: Amazon SanDisk Extreme 64GB

Cost me £23.49.  I think I did find it slightly cheaper elsewhere (maybe £2-£3) but I wanted it "tomorrow"
