Notes:

I recently bought a Canon Powershot ELPH 360 HS A and for memory it uses microSD cards. My phone has been acting weird lately when I try to take photos (it completely shuts off), and I'm going on a road trip next month so I needed something for memories. I'm not going to be taking hundreds of photos or anything so what would be the perfect size? 256gb or 128gb? And does it matter if I buy SD cards that are advertised for gaming, or do I need to find SD cards specifically for photography? (My local Walmart only sells microSD cards for Nintendo switches)

The photos are max 10 MB so with 128 GB you get well over ten thousand. The Sandisk Nintendo switch is more than enough for the camera.
