Hi, I have a new 12x32 digital camera binoculars (Unbranded), unfortunately there was no sd card in the box, so I need to know, to buy the right one.
The one reccomended in the manual is a 32gb micro sd card.

TIA.

All microSD cards have a sort of 'serrated edge'. However they're supplied with an adapter, so that they can be plugged into a standard SD card slot in a laptop, etc. That adapter has 'a corner cut off', just as every standard SD card always has: https://img.dxcdn.com/productimages/sku_141838_1.jpg

I use Integral brand cards for most things - a reasonable balance between cheapness and quality.

This should be good enough for what you need :

Amazon.co.uk User Recommendation
Some devices can't use cards with a capacity of more than 32GB (as the technology for such cards is slightly different). So I strongly suggest not getting tempted to buy a 64GB card or greater, as it might not function properly. Just stick to the 32GB recommendation.

It's worth taking note of the 'speed class' of a microSD card but, unless you're buying an 'iffy' ultra-cheap card from eBay or similar, any modern card should be able to handle the data transfer speed required by your digital binoculars.

In your situation, I'd simply head down to Asda to buy one of these, which can easily meet your requirements:

(Note: That recommendation isn't simply the result of a bit of googling. I use those cards myself and I'm totally happy with them).

Thanks both, good advice.
I've noticed that some cards look as though a corner has been snipped off, does that make any différance ?
