GH4 U3 Cards

[CSFilms]

The Transcend 128GB U3 worked fine for me with my GH4. It doesn't work for my GH2 with Moon T7 though as stated above. I also have the 256GB PNY http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produ...sdx256u1h_ge_256gb_elite_sdxc_uhs_1_card.html which again works perfectly fine with my GH4, but not with Moon T7. So far the only card that seems to work fine (for me) for both cameras is the Sandisk Extreme 45MB/s, 80MB/s, and of course the 95MB/s cards.

Still, bad luck for Transend if they did let a bad card off the line. They lost me as a customer, and I will tell others my experience and recommend against them.

Every manufacturer in every industry at some point is going to have duds come off the assembly line. It happens. It's impossible to be perfect 100% of the time.

I will tell others my experience and recommend against them.

Completely within your rights to do so, just make sure you make it clear to those you tell that you had problems using the card in a hacked camera that does not conform to the standards that these cards were designed for.

^ Good suggestion by Sol M. since that way there will be less confusion and miss information.

On the topic of cards. Have 4x 64gb Transend cards which work flawlessly, so far.

Been using the komputerbay 128gb 600x for over 20 hours of recording in 4k without drop frame or freezing up. And this is just a u1 card.

I've been using the Panasonic 64GB Gold Series UHS-I SDXC U3 memory cards. I have had zero problems with these cards and feel the most confident using them over any other brand. These cards were developed with the GH4 in mind.

I've been using the 'Transcend 128GB UHS-1 SDXC Memory Card (Speed Class 3)' and it works perfectly. Haven't had any hiccups (yet) in 4K or 1080p 200Mbps. Love this little thing.

Of course. The point is to inform other GH2 users.

The Transcend 128GB U3 worked fine for me with my GH4. It doesn't work for my GH2 with Moon T7 though as stated above.

Curious. I'd expect a card that seems to work at 100 Mb/s to work just fine at 50 Mb/s (24L), regardless of camera.

No problem in 4K or 200mb/s 1080p60 with the 128GB Transcend U3 SDXC .

Hey Jaime, is your Transcend card the same as the one in the original post?

Yes, that's the one I'm using. I bought a second one because the first worked so well for me. I shoot event videos, where I regularly have to record 2 hours uninterrupted. The Transcend 128GB U3 cards are, so far, the only ones that let me do that at 4K on my GH4.

Here are two interesting reviews :

Due to the relatively young age of the technology, the SanDisk Extreme Pro UHS II card didn't fare too well in Price/Performance. As time progresses, this card should make its way up the chart.

The SanDisk Extreme Pro UHS II memory card is quite certainly the quickest SD solution we have ever tested. In fact, it might be the quickest memory card we have seen. The build quality is great, as expected, and no issues were seen during testing.

Performance of the card was quite surprising to say the least. 240 MB/s is certainly nothing to sneeze at, especially for enthusiasts that can put this new technology to work. Price/Performance didn't show the strong point of the Extreme Pro, but as I said, it should start moving up as the technology moves into the market.

MSRP of the SanDisk Extreme Pro UHS II in the 32GB capacity is set at $129.99 with a lifetime warranty. Current market pricing can be found below.

Price/Performance is where the ADATA really stands out. With ADATA pricing the Premier Pro under 1$ per GB, the 128GB model has claimed the top spot in the chart.

The ADATA Premier Pro is a rather good solution for those of you wanting to shoot 4K video, and even for those just shooting HD video, whether it be in the 17Mbps or 9Mbps category. Further, I found no build quality issues with the card; everything worked as it should.

Performance of the Premier Pro in the 128GB capacity was on par with what marketing has said in the specifications, and the card even exceeded the write numbers slightly.

MSRP for the 128GB ADATA Premier Pro UHS I U3 SDXC card is set at $109.99 with a lifetime warranty.
