Kingston’s 16GB SD Card
For those of you who just can’t get enough portable storage [me too], you’ll be delighted to see that Kingston has launched a 16GB SD Card.
The 16GB Class 4 SDHC Flash memory card joins the 4GB and 8GB versions and will cost around £113 plus VAT. Not cheap though, despite being the only storage card you will probably ever need – well, at least until next year. After all, you can get an Integral 16GB Class 4 card for £54 on Amazon while the Transcend 16GB Class 6 SDHC card with reader comes in at £56 here.
“Higher resolution digital cameras and increasingly popular HD video camcorders require high capacity memory cards with faster data transfer rates (DTRs) to maximise overall performance of the recording device,” said Kirsty Miller, European Flash Product Marketing Manager, Kingston Technology. “Our new 16GB Class 4 memory card answers the performance needs.”
According to Kingston, the 16GB card can hold more than 7,500 images with a 6MP camera and more than 4 hours of HD video (using 6Mbps HD Extended recording). Beats my old 1GB card any day.-Martin Lynch
