If I want to buy a SDXC card that can handle 4k recording in high profile, what are the choices? I wonder what the minimal requirement is.
Got a tip for us?

I'm also curious about this. I have pre-ordered the Panasonic HC-VX870 camcorder that is capable of recording in 4k. Stupidly, I didn't even think about what SD card I would need. I believe it records at 72Mbps.
The sandisk extreme pro does 95 MBps:
"4K Ultra HD-ready Today

Our 512GB SanDisk Extreme PRO SDXC™ card delivers both speed and capacity, so the video you shoot today is ready for the newest 4K Ultra HD televisions and monitors."
The UHS-II version does 280:
