If you are using DJI Drone, or you planning to buy one. Then it's really important to make sure you buy a reliable SD cards.

Why it's important to get good and expensive SD cards?


1. Speed Requirements (Read & Write Speeds)

• 4K video requires a high write speed to store large amounts of data without lag or dropped frames.

• Look for UHS Speed Class 3 (U3) or V30, V60, or V90 ratings for smooth 4K recording.



2. Avoiding Frame Drops & Corruption

• Slow or low-quality SD cards may cause dropped frames, glitches, or even corrupt video files.



3. Capacity (Storage Size)

• 4K/5K videos take up a lot of space (around 300MB–500MB per minute, depending on bitrate).

• A high-capacity card (128GB, 256GB, or more) is recommended for longer recordings.



4. Reliability & Durability

• Good SD cards are more durable and resistant to heat, water, and shocks—important for professional work.

• Cheaper cards may wear out quickly, leading to data loss.



5. Compatibility with Cameras & Devices

• Some cameras won’t support slow SD cards for 4K recording.

• Always check your camera’s recommended SD card specifications to avoid issues.

Below are some link to SD cards that I use and highly recommend for purchase.
