M ore capacity and fast transfer speeds are the chief benefits of the SanDisk Extreme III 8GB SDHC flash memory card, which was introduced by SanDisk. This and other imaging products from SanDisk will be displayed in Booth 1808 at PhotoPlus 2007 International Conference & Expo, which opens Thursday at Jacob K. Javits Convention Center. The 8GB SanDisk Extreme III SDHC card can store more than 4,000 high-resolution photos or up to 16 hours of MPEG 4 video. The SDHC flash memory card has a read/write speed of 20 megabytes per second, thus providing rapid downloads to a personal computer.

 

SanDisk Flash memory card reader

The SanDisk 8GB SDHC memory card will be packaged with a SanDisk MicroMate USB 2.0 Reader - a $20 value - so that users have a one-stop solution for capturing, storing and transferring their pictures. The bundled flash card and reader are expected to ship within the next 30 days to United States retailers at a suggested price of $179.99. It will also be available in Europe. SanDisk's ultra-portable, high-performance MicroMate SDHC Reader can rapidly move images from an SDHC card to a personal computer. It also reads standard SD as well as SDHC flash memory cards. The reader is being bundled with the 8GB SanDisk Extreme III SDHC card at no extra cost.

 

Class 6 SDHC memory cards
The SDHC format is designed to allow for capacities greater than 2GB, but devices must be SDHC compatible in order to work with SDHC memory cards. For video applications, SanDisk Extreme III SDHC cards have a speed rating of Class 6, the highest available SDA speed class, meaning that they have a minimum continuous data transfer rate of 6MB/second.

 

ESP Technology
All SanDisk Extreme III cards offer ESP Technology to streamline data transfer, RescuePRO software to recover accidentally deleted files and images, a dedicated technical support telephone hotline and a limited lifetime warranty. The flash memory cards are designed for shooting in extreme temperatures (-13 to 185 degrees Fahrenheit or -25 to 85 degrees Celsius), high altitudes and other demanding situations.
