Choice Of Micro SD Card For Shooting 4k Video

[AMESPilot]

Does anyone have any recommendations for the largest size card that can be used and what type for shooting smooth videos? I have a golf event to do next month and have done a few at 1080p but want to do 4k this year. I have an Inspire 1 and a OSMO+ Thanks for any feedback.

They are allot of fun this will be my 3rd year in doing this. But I want to buy a larger Micro SD Card as 4k takes up allot of room fast. But am not sure how big of one the inspire 1 or OSMO+ will use. So I was hoping for a little help here guess if I have to I can call DJI tech support.... Thanks

Osmo+ according to DJI has a maximum of 64gb although I haven't tried larger.

One of the System Admin posted this comment to that question on the DJI forum,
"Hello there. I appreciate your time bringing this query to us. You may use any SD Card as long as it's Class10 and UHS1 or above."
So I'm guessing now there is not a limit would that be the way you would read that?

Certainly reads that way, I'll try a 128gb card in the Osmo later today and post back.

128gb card works, not sure yet if the full capacity is usable.

I’ve used a 128gb before and never had an issue (I1, I2, and several Phantoms). Prefer to use 64gb though as I don’t like having all my eggs in one basket, if you know what I mean...

Thanks everyone! I have several 32gb cards but from what i'm being told you don't get much time on a 32gb card shooting 4k. So I didn't want to have to stop in the middle of something to switch cards... Thanks again...

So what are you planning to use? the 64gb or 128gb? hmmm for me i prefer 128gb so that there is a bigger allowance.
