Sandisk outdoor

[Shed Hunter]

Does anyone use these memory cards? I picked up some of the 16GB from Walmart on sale in hopes these will work in all of my cameras (I have an issue with my cameras rejecting certain cards after a while)

I use Sandisk almost exclusively in all mine. It isn't an "outdoor" model though.

This. never used a specialized SanDisk, just SanDisk. Only brand I will use.

Same. Learned my lesson the hard way with other brands. The only other brand that I have used with no issues is my first tactacams cameras recommended their cards. I bought 2. The rest of them have SanDisk with no issues with them.

I use SanDisk micro in my cell cams, class 10

class 10

This is the key, and the reason a lot of brands other than SanDisk won't work. Anything lower than class 10 has a slower write speed than what most cameras need. And then they either won't work at all, or you get corrupted pictures.

This is especially true if you collect video. You need a fast write speed. I don't use anything less than 100 m/s, and I prefer 120 m/s.

I use the cheap ones on Amazon. They're blue with yellow label but I don't remember brand. Big thing as said is make sure they are class 10 with fast write speed. I've had all sorts of cards go bad with time, including SanDisk. But I run many dozens of cams and a lot of them year round, so something is bound to go bad every now and again.

It isn't so much "cards going bad." It's some cards just don't work well in some brands of cameras. So far, I haven't run into a cam that didn't work with SanDisk. They seem to be the industry standard. They tend to be a little more expensive, but these days you can get SanDisk 64GB class 10, 140 m/s cards for about $10. At that price, I'm not worried about something being cheaper.

The only cards I ever had that wouldn't work in newer or better cams were the old low capacity slow speed ones, back when 16g was considered big. Been a long time since I had any of those.
