Transcend Memory Card 'SDHC Class 10 UHS-I' to Capture Full HD Video


Bangalore: Transcend launched its new SDHC Class 10 UHS-I memory card. Combining the already impressive Class 10 specification with the performance boost of UHS-I, Transcend’s SDHC Class 10 Ultra High Speed memory cards unleashed the full potential of high-end digital cameras and camcorders.

Developed by the Secure Digital (SD) Card Association as part of its SD version 3.01 specifications, Ultra-High Speed Class 1 (UHS-I) is the fastest category card available today. The new Class 10 SDHC UHS-I cards boast a staggering four times faster transfer rate compared to Class 10 alone, realizing transfer speeds of up to 85MB/s when paired with advanced UHS-I compatible devices.

Transcend SDHC Class 10 UHS-I cards are available in high-capacity sizes 8GB or 16GB, enough to store 2 hours and 40 minutes of video content when recording in high quality 1920x1080 AVCHD format at 13Mbps compression rate. With a slight reduction in quality settings, the same 16GB card can record up to six full hours of high definition video.

Each card features built-in ECC (Error Correction Code) that automatically detects and corrects any errors that might occur during data transfer. Additionally, the SDHC10 UHS-I card includes Transcend’s own RecoveRx™ software – an extraordinarily effective tool for bringing back accidentally deleted or lost files. The new UHS-I memory cards are recommended to be used with Transcend’s RDF8 USB 3.0 card reader or RDF1 ExpressCard Reader.

Transcend’s new SDHC Class 10 UHS-I memory card is currently available in two capacities: 8GB for 1,290 and 16GB for 3,500 and is backed by Transcend's limited lifetime warranty.
