Kingston Ships Fastest SDHC/SDXC UHS-I Speed Class 3 (U3) Card for 4K and Ultra-HD Video Capture

Hsinchu,
Taiwan – Feb
12, 2014 −  Kingston, the
independent world leader in memory products, today announced its fastest
addition to the Secure
Digital product line. The new SDHC/SDXC UHS-I Speed
Class 3 (U3) card (Kingston® part #: SDA3/xxGB) allows professionals
and consumers to capture 4K and other Ultra-HD video resolutions. The new card
is available in 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB capacities.

The
SD Association’s
latest specification, UHS-I U3 (Ultra High-Speed Bus, Speed Class 3),
guarantees performance of at least 30MB/s read and write, enough bandwidth to
record and playback 4K video without interruption. Kingston’s SDHC/SDXC UHS-I
Speed Class 3 card provides speeds of 90MB/s read and 80MB/s write, which is up
to 9x faster (read) and up to 8x faster (write) than standard Class 10 SD
cards. The faster speeds ensure the best video and photo integrity by reducing
stutter as well as faster PC upload time especially when using USB 3.0 card readers. 

The SDHC/SDXC UHS-I Speed Class 3 is
compatible with all SDHC and SDXC host devices. It allows users to capture
cinema quality Full HD (1080p), Ultra HD (2160p), 3D, and 4K2K videos on
high-performance cameras such as Digital Single Lens Reflex (D-SLR), Digital
Single Lens Mirrorless (D- SLM), camcorders and video cameras. In addition to
4K video capture, it can also be used for high-density photograph capture in
burst or continuous capture mode, television recording, and live
broadcasts.  Users can capture up to 60
minutes of 4K HD video or shoot high-density image files in RAW or JPEG (up to
8,000 24MP images) on a 64GB card.

The SDHC/SDXC UHS-I Speed Class 3 is backed by a lifetime warranty and free technical
support. For more information, visit http://www.kingston.com/en/flash/sd_cards.
