Can I ask for a recommended make/model Micro SD Card everyone is using for 4k recordings? I understand the one supplied with the Mavic is a 16GB Samsung Class 10 UHS-1 but I have read that UHS-3 is recommended for 4k. I want to buy a 64GB card next but not sure if the UHS-1 (cheaper) will do. Very confusing.

Which card do you guys use for 4k?

Looks like I got my cards mixed up. The supplied card is Panasonic 16GB Class 10 UHS-3. So, answering my own question stick to Class 10 UHS-3...... on checking the Mavic Manual DJI spec is Class 10 UHS-1 ...Even more confused.

The Mavic's 4K video bitrate is 60mbps, which works out to something like 7.5MB/s. The Class 10/UHS-1 card spec is 10MB/s, so anything faster than that is only useful in copying the files faster to your computer.
