Transcend Information, Inc. (Transcend), one of the world's largest producers of flash memory cards, has announced that its newest memory card series –SDHC™ HD Video Cards, designed specifically for recording, storing, and playing back high definition video content are now available in India. Extremely light weight, mere 2gm, Transcend's SDHC HD Video Cards are fully Class 6 compliant, which means they provide extremely fast data transfer speeds (guaranteed minimum write speed of 6MB/s) to assure quick reaction time when used in digital cameras and camcorders.
Mr. Austin Huang, Regional Head - Sales, SAARC & APAC, Transcend, said, “Today's latest camcorders record digital video at extremely high resolutions without compromising image quality. However, the improved clarity of HD video requires a significantly greater amount of storage space when recording. We are confident that our customers will appreciate the enhanced performance that Transcend's SDHC HD Video Cards offer as they are fully equipped to handle the increased capacity, speed, and reliability requirements of HD video.”
When recording in high quality 1920x1080 AVCHD format at 13Mbps compression rate, a 16GB Transcend SDHC HD Video Card can store 2 hours and 40 minutes of video content. Moreover, if slightly lower quality settings are used, the same 16GB card can record up to six full hours of high definition video! For added convenience, the front of each Transcend SDHC HD Video card features a useful space for labeling and organizing recorded video content.
Modern 10 megapixel digital cameras and HD camcorders continuously save large amounts of high-resolution image data to the memory card during use, and the speed at which cameras can save this information directly affects its performance. Transcend's high-speed Class 6 SDHC HD Video Cards cater directly to digital camera and HD camcorder users by allowing faster image and video saving for improved overall camera response. Now available in 4GB, 8GB, and 16GB capacities, Transcend's SDHC HD Video Cards are fully backed by Transcend's comprehensive 3-Year Warranty.
