The company claims this is the first of a new category of storage media; SanDisk Video HD cards will be available in SDHC (high-capacity) and Memory Stick PRO Duo formats. They are designed for high performance and optimized for high-definition camcorders but they can also be used for recording standard video. Further, the cards work well in point-and-shoot digital still cameras that have video capabilities. They are claimed to exceed the performance required by high-definition camcorders, making them ideal for 1080i high definition recording. They feature fast read speeds, making for efficient transfer to personal computers, and giving them best-in-class performance for video cards.
The cards will be offered in 60-minutes (4GB) and 120-minutes (8GB) on the HD Standard setting for both SDHC and Memory Stick PRO Duo formats. The retail prices are in the region of Rs 5,500 and Rs 6,900 respectively, for the 4GB and 8GB SDHC cards; and Rs 5,500 and Rs 7,900 respectively, for the Memory Stick PRO Duo cards. The cards are available at all leading retailers and stores around India.
