Kingston Technology, which we usually associate with desktop PC memory, has announced the addition of a new 512 GB memory card to its range of Class 10 UHS-I SDHC/SDXC memory cards. The new card is great news for all people who own DSLR cameras and HD camcorders and who record high-definition videos and shoot pictures at high resolution.
The new card reaches 90 MB/sec of read speed and 45 MB/sec of write speed and is also available in 16 GB, 32 GB, 64 GB, 128 GB and 256 GB capacities, which offer the same speeds. The company also offers other cards such as:
- SDHC/SDXC UHS-I Speed Class 3 (U3): The fastest card in the Kingston lineup with 90 MB/s read and 80 MB/s write speeds. It is designed for high performance 4K camcorders and DSLR and DSLM cameras, and is also ideal for action photography, television recordings, and live broadcasts. Available in 32 GB, 64 GB, 128 GB and 256 GB.
- Class 10 UHS-I SDHC/SDXC: Perfect for HD video capture and hi-res images with speeds of 45 MB/s read and 10 MB/s write. Available in 16 GB, 32 GB, 64 GB and 128 GB.
