One thing I've noticed lately is that most SD cards aren't really SD cards, they're those Micro-SD card holders.

I generally tend to buy whatever Costco has on a twofer. Haven't had any problems with those cards yet.

It's been a while since I've purchased SD cards.

What is the current price/performance/quality sweet spot these days? Ideally in make, model and size.  And if someone bought cards in the near past, a pointer to the item in the store would be fantastic.

I'm going to need to get a couple cards soon, and I'm hoping someone else recently did the research, because the sweet spot tends to change every month or two.

The last I checked you got the most storage for your money at about 64GB.

Some people are Sandisk, or nothing, others are happy with PNY, Patriot etc. There are also other "name brands" that one could look at.

Also, the various speed ratings on SD cards are difficult to sort out, at best. 90Mb/S isn't always 90 Megabits, there's also class 10 etc. With the sucky bus in the K-1, there's probably a certain point where faster doesn't improve the camera's performance, but I can always hope that new models will be better.
