Question
I want to purchase the best SD card I can get for the new GoPro HD HERO2.
On GoPro's website they sell a class 10 32GB Sandisk card, but is there a faster one I can get?
I was looking at these two, but I'm not sure if either one is compatible.
Answer
The GoPro HD Hero 2 states on the specs page that it requires a class 4 or higher SDHC card at up to 32GB. Class 4 isn't that fast by today's standards, and actually equates to 4MB/s read/write speeds. The two cards you pointed out are compatible with SDHC, but are much much faster, and even way out of the current class leagues. They rate them as 300x or 45MB/s read/write.
In other words, you wouldn't have any problem using those memory cards, but from what I can tell they would be overkill. One thing that may be worth mentioning is the two SandDisk Extreme Pro cards that you pointed out do state that they have "extreme durability" with temperature proofing, water proofing, and shock proofing - all things which you may benefit from in extreme conditions.
