In my own experience, cheap SD in eBay = fake cards.
When 32GB was the biggest ones available, bought one half price form eBay.
Anything above 4 GB got corrupted… ended up being a 4GB card reformatted to look as a 32GB.
Just a word of advice for Ebay and unknown sellers.
If it’s a genuine Sandisk, lots of dodgy cards on Ebay.
I think that’s just a dollar or so off the regular Amazon price for these. Still, a pretty good deal.
For a while, Sony had a super discounted 45MB/s SD card on Amazon.
YMMV, but I feel like the 45mb/s cards work much quicker in camera than the 30 mb/s. Both were Sandisk but the slower ones were bought in store and the faster online. I don’t know what the actual speeds are (since I assume the noted speeds are maximum rates?).
Just my feeling in GH2, GX1 and Fuji X100.

Yes the 45s indeed feel faster. On fhe omd ita easy to notice, tge 30s lock you out of playback for much longer after a shot. On the panasonics when you turn them on and press play theres a big difference in the time it takes to populate what you already have.
Yeah, I picked up a SanDisk 90MB/s card at B&H yesterday and it saves files incredibly fast compared to 30MB/s!
That is good to know. I ordered a 80mb/s one and expect to be using burst mode this weekend. Hopefully it will make a difference. I remember a Fuji S602zoom I had with a compact flash (and a second different card, can’t remember what t was) and shooting burst and wait………..ing for them to write drove me nuts!

They are sweet!
These cards are not really cheap as they are just “Ultra” cards.
I just ordered a SanDisk Extreme 64 GB SDXC Class 10 UHS-1 Flash Memory Card 80MB/s (SDSDXS-064G-X46)and it wasn’t cheap, but should keep me happy for a few years.
It’s insane how cheap these cards are now. However, I know so many people who buy 64Gb cards because they are “cheap” and can shoot 4000+ photos!!! Is it just me, or unless you shoot video, you’re better off with several 4 or 8gb cards? And furthermore, if you’re shooting 4000 photos in any short period of time, you’re probably a bad photographer! Hahah
Maybe or using burst mode. But, shooting RAW alongside jpeg takes up a lot of space! I friend does that and imagine how many photos times two you might get over a week or two vacation? Plus I like to make sure I have them on the card as well as on my laptop , in case something happens to one or the other before I get home.
I picked up some 32GB this time even though I have 16GB currently (come to think of it I nearly filled one of those up n vacation before I turned RAW off.). Bigger is better, right? Haha.

Agreed, I just went away for 5 days and took 480 shots. A RAW + JPEG combo on my camera is 21Mb per shot – that’s 10 gig without any video!
IF I have a state of the art camera that shoots many raw shots in a row, and cost me $600-$1200, why on Earth would I cheap out and buy a 30MB card (no matter how they doll it up with misleading titles (“Ultra” etc…) instead of a 95mb Sandisk card like I bought a years ago?
What’s up, Sandisk? Your production runs are less and less up to snuff?
That should read a 64gb 30mb/s card, instead of a 95,b/second.
