Video Description
SD cards explained -- including their capacity types, speed classes, application classes, and bus interfaces. Video covers the latest SDUC cards and SD Express, and also includes comparative tests of UHS-I, UHS-II and SanDisk Quickflow UHS-I cards. As noted in the video, I personally always purchase SanDisk SD and microSD cards, and usually the Extreme PRO models.
