Imagine storing up to 8 hours of HD-quality video on one memory card. Well look no further. SanDisk just announced the release of its 64GB SanDisk Ultra® SDXC™ flash memory card.
 |
On the plus side, this SD 3.0 card reads at speeds up to 15 MB/sec. And thanks to exFAT file structure, this card will undoubtedly improve rapid shooting of still images not to mention the increased capacity for HD video.
If there is a downside to this memory card, it would be the limited number of devices that are currently compatible with the SDXC** (SD eXtended Capacity) format. That includes the recently-announced camcorders from Panasonic, the Canon PowerShot SX210IS, and likely the Samsung TL350 just to name a few. SDXC devices will eventually include a handful of HDTVs, Blu-ray recorders/players, camcorders, cameras, mobile phones, navigation systems and computers yet to hit the streets.
The card is available immediately on SanDisk.com for $349.99.
**The SD Association lists some important points for early adopters to be aware of when using SDXC cards.

Its so crazy that we have memory cards out now that are this big. I don’t know how I can justify getting a card that big right now, but in a few years I’m sure it’ll seem small :-p
