I have several that I used with my Go Pro and continue to use in my PDR. Page 146 of the Owners manual: To begin, insert a FAT32 formatted SD card, Class 10 required, 8, 16, or 32 GB recommended, into the glove box SD card reader". BTW 32 GB holds a lot of video and data!

These 32 gb Lexar SD work just fine and are already formatted FAT32. These are SD (not microSD) and don't need an adapter.

The 32gb card should get you just over 700 minutes of recording time. I use mine every time I am driving the car

I bought a 32GB @ Walmart Supercenter near me. It was $7.66, plus sales tax. It has like 765 minutes of recording capacity. I flip it on every time at startup. Never know when it's recording log will save your a** legally.

Also note that due to file size limits, recording will stop after about 90 minutes. No alert when this happens, so just stop and start recording every 90 min or less on a road trip.

This is the card I use. Plug and play with no formatting required.

It is a tedious process to delete the files while the card is in the car. It is much quicker to remove the card, put it in a computer, and mass delete the files.
I would be pleased to learn there is a mass delete function included in the PDR software of which I am unaware.

Did anyone else notice the C8 PDR can be set to automatically record like a dashcam? Pretty cool.

Larger cards can be used as well, I use a 128GB Sandisk Card with no problems
