The PDF file of cards that work with the M8 is pretty limited compared to
the number of cards on the market. They should probably put that list in a
more prominent area of their web site. For me, SanDisk Ultra II will be my
card of choice.

Sandisk, Lexmark, etc do not make the memory cards for cameras.  They market
cards made by someone else.  Typically these cards are made by names like
Toshiba, TI, Hitachi, Hyundai, and a host of other IC makers.  Usually there
is more than 1 vendor per marketer ( so they can beat down the price).

The really good marketers will specify properly the specs to meet.  Others
buy whatever is cheap.

If you read between the lines, buy from a source that someone else has had
good luck with.  It gives you the best chance of getting the card you think
you bought.
