Does the GoPro site or your instructions (if you've still got them

) recommend a minimum speed...as long as it's faster than the recommended minimum, you'll be fine.

I've used Sandisk or Lexar cards for my photography and have had no issues at all - only time I haven't used one, was due to being advised not to get Sandisk for the car stereo (takes SD cards) as there can be compatibility issues...

From their web site...

Storage

microSD memory card with a Class 10 or UHS-1 rating required. See list of recommended microSD cards
Up to 64GB capacity supported
Record times vary with resolutions and frame rates

Personally, I would go for a full-size SD card, rather than a micro-SD in an adapter.

It doesn't take a full size SD

D'oh! I should know that. I've got a GoPro.

Rick, That link takes me to a full sized sd card, but, I use the 64gb version in mine and it works fine.
