4K-ready memory cards
Ultra High Definition (HD) or 4K, may soon overtake HD as the preferred way for people to watch TV and movies at home. 4K TV sets are expected to sell well this Diwali season and 4K TV services will begin rolling out in India in 3-4 months. It's time to start shooting your next shaadi-ka-video in 4K and there are at least 6 makes of mobile phones available in India, which allow you to shoot in 4K. Now comes the problem! 4K as the name suggests is four times sharper, denser than a HD image and gobbles up those gigabytes on your phone memory card, for every minute you shoot.
Which is why SanDisk last week launched a 4K-friendly phone card, the Extreme Pro microSDXC UHS-1-- the world's fastest microSD memory card which transfers data at 95 MB per second. You need this speed to record 4K video without jitter. It costs Rs 9700 ( 64 GB size) and Rs 4900 ( 32 GB) and comes with a lifetime warranty.
For professional photographers who shoot 4K video or burst mode still pictures in uncompressed RAW format with their digital SLR cameras, SanDisk has also launched the highest capacity ever offered on a phone memory card -- the Extreme Pro SDXC UHS-1 with 512 GB of on board space. It costs Rs 51,990.
