SanDisk Extreme PRO SD UHS-I is the card to buy if you want one model that covers photos, 4K video and fast offloads without paying UHS-II prices. SanDisk rates it U3 and V30, quotes shot speeds up to 140MB/s and lists transfer speeds up to 200MB/s on the 64GB to 1TB versions when paired with a QuickFlow-capable reader. Capacities run from 32GB to 1TB, so it works for a compact camera as well as a mirrorless body that records long 4K clips. SanDisk lists a Lifetime Limited Warranty and an offer for RescuePRO Deluxe recovery software for two years. The catch is the entry card: the 32GB model is specified at up to 100MB/s read and 90MB/s write, so buy 64GB or larger to get the headline speed. It also stays on the UHS-I bus. The SanDisk store showed $28.99 for 32GB, down from $36.99, with a Notify Me button when we checked. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not test the cards ourselves.
