Ultimate claims for speedy CompactFlash cards

Edited by the Electronicstalk editorial team Dec 9, 2005

CompactFlash Ultimate cards offer the performance that high-end digital cameras and other fast capture and storage function devices need to perform at peak levels.

With a sustained write speed rating of 100x, Kingston Technology's CompactFlash Ultimate cards offer the performance that high-end digital cameras and other fast capture and storage function devices need to perform at peak levels.

The 2 and 4Gbyte storage capacities of the CompactFlash Ultimate cards meet the increased demands of today's professional photographers by delivering performance and reliability.

"Kingston Technology's CompactFlash Ultimate cards are designed for professional photographers and serious enthusiasts who depend on reliable digital media that can deliver the speed and capacity to complete their most challenging assignments", said Jim Selby, Product Marketing Manager EMEA, Kingston Technology.

"Photographers and digital enthusiasts can maximise the performance of their high-end digital equipment".

"Kingston Technology's Ultimate series CompactFlash cards will have the fastest write time in the industry and give photographers the freedom and flexibility to capture life around them when it happens, as it happens", Selby added.

Similar to CD-ROM drives, many devices are currently sold with an 'x' speed rating to give users a performance indicator of how fast a card can transfer (read and/or write) images.

The write speed of a media card determines how quickly images captured with a digital camera are actually written to the memory card.

Delays in writing images to the card can slow down the overall performance of the camera and cause photographers to miss the perfect shot.

Faster memory cards, such as Kingston Technology's CompactFlash Ultimate cards, can write images to the card as they are captured by the camera, allowing a seamless flow of imaging information from camera to memory card and maximising the overall speed and functionality of the camera system.

This means that photographers will always be at-the-ready to capture that perfect series of images.

Kingston Technology's CompactFlash Ultimate cards are 100% tested and backed by a lifetime warranty and 24/7 live technical support.
