What SD cards are you using to record 2160p60?

Just wondering what SD cards people have been using to record 2160p60 without issue.

I don't have the DVX200 camcorder but I might be able to use either a UX180 or HC-X1 camcorder for some shooting I have planned for November which also has a 2160p60 mode.
 
SanDisk Extreme Pro SDXC1 C10, U3 (for the DVX). Been burned by some others, these have never let me down. Use them in the DVX, a bunch of Canon's for stills and vids, the GoPros & DJI's (mini's, of course). To me, worth the few extra $$...
 
Oh,,, I should have added, it may be more important WHERE you get whatever cards you select as much as which ones. There's a LOT of bogus and counterfeit cards out there at cheap prices, especially on ebay and from overseas. (I ended up with some counterfeit Samsung cards once. Practically useless.) Get them from a dealer or reputable outlet.
 
I got these

My first batch of Lexar cards were slower and used to stop recording when using dual codec and there were issues with higher framerates (like 50p here in PAL land). But these ones haven't let me down once. I guess, contrary to what people say, speed does matter. And I remember working out the math and it does make sense as to why the earlier cards failed and these haven't. So yeah, Lexar, recommended.
 
I also have 2 of these 256, 1000X cards. Got them off Amazon. So far, they work great. I usually have slot 1 filled and the camera will switch to slot 2. Many hours of UHD 60P 150mbs.
