I never used SD cards, now after getting 750D I will have to use them, however with 24MP an 8GB isn't what you really want.

Any suggestions about SD cards 

I want really fast cards 32 GB would be ideal

Sandisk Extreme Pro. No experience with Lexar, Kingston, Samsung or others. Although I don't think one gets really bad stuff as long as I stick to a wellknown brand and don't buy at eBay shops which sometimes offer fake brands.

samsung seems to have the best performance/cost ratio. Wirecutter had a recent article with some suggestion - let me try to find the link

http://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-sd-card/

http://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-microsd-card/

 

(the second article is micro-sd but you can get similar models as sd)

-

I mostly use sandisk because they seem reliable but are not the fastest (btw samsung ssd are >>> faster than sandisk ssd)-

-

One of the big issues is avoiding faulty clones that mostly don't work and have high failure rate. There was an article somewhere that show the rip off 'fake' packaging and it is pretty darn good with a few errors.
