Memory Card Requirements for the VIRB Elite Action Camera

The VIRB Elite action camera has an expandable memory slot in which a microSD card must be inserted before the device can be used. This card allows the unit to boot up, store track information, videos and photos.

The speed that microSD memory cards can read or write data is designated by the class of the card. For the best performance, Garmin recommends using a class 10 card. MicroSD cards lower than class 10, such as class 4 or 6, may experience stutter, pixelation or lag in the video quality.

The maximum card size your VIRB Elite can hold is 64 gigabytes (GB).
