My new Go Pro arrives after waiting three years to get one, and no memory card. Du oh! Didn't noticed I had to order it. I was so excited about getting it I just didn't pay close enough attention to details. I suppose BestBuy has them. Question for fellow owners, which of the three cards should I buy?

Assuming you have the Hero3, a 16 or 32 Gb card

The different colors (black, white) also work better with different brand cards.

I have a hero 3 black, and it needed a 32 gb lexar (I think). Sandisks had awful reviews in them.... Something about the write speed and data quality.

you'll be hard pressed to fill the 32 on a full battery charge

Nothing comes with it as far as a memory card....have to buy that separate.....go to Staples or Best Buy.

mine is a cobra (is that good?) :huh:

"wife" she had all these points she had to use
(or lose) on a company purchase deal
and that was her selection

but it said on the package, 500 mb internal memory

to best buy i reckon -> easier to have it mailed

We have a 16 and we film all day while skiing and at the end of the day we might use 1/3 of the card...maybe 1/2. Got mine at CVS with some extrabucks and it was cheap. Love this camera....I mount it in the fire truck all the time.

I have ten dollars in extra bus. Wish I knew they had them. It only took two days to get one on Amazon.
