Hi,
i use a canon 60d.
i've heard that transcend class 10 causes interruption recording, that people had less problems with transcend class 6.

Or maybe i should try sandisk class 6 or 10 (i think the 10 works better in the brand sandisk than transcend)

Any thoughts ?

Thank you in advance,

I shoot GH4 4K on Transcend Class 10 64GB cards, sometimes on 32GB versions as well. Your 60D should be OK with them.

Oddly the only troubles I ever had were with some SanDisk Class 10s in the 16GB flavor back when I was using the hacked GH2... so your experience may vary, but luckily SD is cheap.

While Transcend is likely about the best of the "bargain" brand media it is still "bargain" brand and enough samples are reported to not keep up with the camera for some reason or other. Personally, I flat won't take a chance on even the best of the "bargain" brand stuff. I suggest SanDisk EXTREME or EXTREME PRO for the 60D and you will likely be OK with your next upgrade camera purchase too.

I'm currently using the same SanDisk EXTREME PRO media in my Panasonic Lumix GH4 in 4K modes that I used to use in my 60D with no "hiccups". Be careful where you get your SanDisk media from, this is the most counterfeited brand on the market, which should tell you something.

I agree that Transcend cards cost less than SanDisk, but it sounds like you are using "bargain" more to indicate that they are of lower quality. I'm curious how you quantify that. I have not experienced any lower performance from Transcend cards compared to SanDisk myself, and have shot hours and hours of 100-200mbps footage on the GH4.
