SanDisk announces 128 GB storage card at show
SanDisk today introduced their new 128 gigabyte storage card at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
Fit for HD videographers and photographers, the Extreme SDXC™ UHS-I 128 GB card with full HD2 3D video and high-resolution photo capability is designed to capture hours of top-quality video footage.
The card features up to 45 megabyte per second read and write speeds for faster shot-to-shot performance and quick data transfers. In addition, the UHS Speed Class 1 rating surpasses the recording requirements of demanding video use cases—from home movies captured on a DSLR to high-quality 3D footage according to SanDisk.
It has been designed with the speed and capacity needed to capture high-resolution RAW and JPEG photos which can reach up to 30 megabytes in size, and lets photographers offload an hour-long Full HD video in five minutes or a batch of 500 high-resolution photos in as little as one minute.
Chris Chute, research manager, worldwide digital imaging solutions, IDC, said: “Consumer video capture is driving user-generated content creation. This is the first year that more than half of all video captured will be in HD, and that number is set to reach nearly 80 percent in 2014.
"This trend highlights the need for memory cards that are fast enough to handle a massive data flow while offering enough capacity to store the resulting files.”
Susan Park, director, product marketing, SanDisk added: “Five minutes of Full HD video can consume one gigabyte of storage space. Our new SanDisk Extreme SDXC card can capture up to ten hours of Full HD 3D video, enough to film an entire day here at the Consumer Electronics Show.”
Price
Prices for the 64GB and 128GB SanDisk Extreme SDXC UHS-I cards start at £119 and £239.
