I don't do video but if I did, I would use the SD card that Canon recommended in your manual.

I would stick to SDHC cards, and avoid the SDXC cards.  You want to use a card that was being produced when the camera was first released.  Here is my favorite card for my Rebel T5,

"Designed for SD devices that can capture Full HD, 3D, and 4K video, as well as RAW and burst photography, the 32GB Extreme PRO SDHC UHS-I Memory Card from SanDisk has a capacity of 32GB."

You want a Class 10 UHS-1, not UHS-3.  That card is at the high end of the performance scale, and may be too much for the camera.  Here are the cards supported by an 80D.  Your camera will be similar, but it lacks "ALL-I" mode.

Avoid getting the latest high performance card out there.

I only use Lexar and Sandisk.  Never used that T brand, but plenty of people have posted about problems with them.

I suggest that you use the “Canon Comminty” link at the top fo the page to find the home page.  There you will find a link to Canon Support, where you can download instruction manuals and software for your Canon gear.
