The announcement was made at the photo industry&#8217;s PMA 08 International Convention here.Ideal for today&#8217;s camcorders and point-and-shoot digital cameras that can record both video and still images, the cards offer faster read and write speeds of 15 megabytes per second(2) (15MB\/sec), up from previous speeds of 10MB\/sec read and 9MB\/sec write in the SanDisk Ultra II line.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As cameras offer more megapixels and as new high-definition &#8216;record-to-memory-card&#8217; camcorders are being introduced, the image sizes and files get bigger, requiring higher card capacity,&#8221; said Susan Park, senior product marketing manager for SanDisk Ultra II cards. &#8220;Cameras also are increasingly used for recording video clips, which demand even more memory and capacity. These mega-capacities in our SanDisk Ultra II line give users the worry-free ability to capture thousands of their memories and hours of HiDef video on a single card, while the faster write speed can reduce the time between shots and the faster read speed reduces time spent waiting to copy those images to a computer,&#8221; she added.<\/p>\n<p>The 32GB Ultra II SDHC card, which is the industry-leading capacity and will be the highest capacity consumer flash memory card that SanDisk produces, will be able to store more than 8,000 high-resolution pictures or up to 40 hours of video(3). A SanDisk MicroMate(TM) USB 2.0 Reader &#8212; a $20 value &#8212; is packaged with the 32GB and 16GB cards, giving users a one-stop solution for capturing, storing and transferring their images.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond speed and capacity, the 8GB SanDisk Ultra II SDHC Plus offers both SD(TM) and USB functionality in one card. Designed with SanDisk&#8217;s unique, patented Hinge Lock technology, the card may be inserted into a USB port on any computer. This two-in-one SD-plus-USB feature eliminates the need to carry cables or card readers to transfer photos and videos from cameras. Despite its small size, the hinge is sturdy &#8212; having survived more than 10,000 open-close cycles in SanDisk&#8217;s durability testing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SanDisk Ultra II Line Picks up Speed and Boosts Capacity with New 32- and 16-Gigabyte SDHC and 8GB SDHC Plus Cards Designed for Camcorders and Digital Cameras That Capture Still Images and Video, New SanDisk Cards Offer 50 Percent Faster Read and Write Speeds; 32GB is Industry-Leading Capacity Sandisk Ultra II SDHC 32GB and SHDC [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[60],"tags":[1066],"class_list":["post-1537","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-media-storage","tag-sdhc"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.masterchong.com\/v4\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1537","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.masterchong.com\/v4\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.masterchong.com\/v4\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.masterchong.com\/v4\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.masterchong.com\/v4\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1537"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.masterchong.com\/v4\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1537\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":22290,"href":"https:\/\/www.masterchong.com\/v4\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1537\/revisions\/22290"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.masterchong.com\/v4\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1537"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.masterchong.com\/v4\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1537"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.masterchong.com\/v4\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1537"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
