14 DAY TRIAL // Samsung may have covered the market of mobile devices when it unveiled its newest microSD card, but Delkin is the one who developed a product for photo cameras and video camcorders.
End-users will have possibly spotted a certain bit of news trumpeting the fact that IBM created a new storage technology that, while not involving too big a price difference (if any), can work 100 times faster than flash.
Products based on it won't come out for a while yet, however, meaning that makers of SSDs, flash drives and memory cards need not worry overmuch, for now at least.
Sure enough, Samsung did not hold back from presenting its newest microSD card of 32 GB and based on the 20nm process.
Now, Delkin has taken the microphone to unleash a memory card of its own, an SDXC model priced at $539.99, for cameras and camcorders.
With its UHS (Ultra High Speed) interface, the 64 GB product can read data at up to 95 MB/s, while writing tasks are accomplished at a maximum of 45 MB/s.
"As camcorders are moving towards flash memory storage and away from tape, we're simultaneously seeing a strong trend in videographers utilizing HD video capabilities in DSLRs," explains Marketing Manager, Anna Lopez.
"Standard SD memory cards are more than fast enough for typical applications but not nearly fast enough to keep up with the large amount of data that HD video requires, particularly when shooting a feature film or longer movie clip. Our new 64GB Elite633 card is able to record at speeds up to 45 megabytes per second and read at speeds up to 95 megabytes per second which eliminates any pause to the recording process that users experience with slower cards."
DSLR cameras with or without Full HD and 3D support will benefit from using the new Delkin SDXC, especially considering the advanced ECC (Error Correction Code) and Wear Leveling technology built into it.
