SanDisk Photokina booth : The booths for memory manufacturers were located in hall 6, which I think was too far away from the digital camera stalls. During Photokina, the division of roles in the memory card market was pointed out in detail. Before the start of Photokina, we were pleasantly surprised by the introduction of the incredibly fast Extreme IV memory cards and during Photokina 2006 SanDisk increased the storage capacity of its Extreme III CompactFlash cards to 12, and 16GB respectively. Other manufacturers then immediately announced the ‘introduction' of 16GB cards, but could not produce any working examples. SanDisk however, really does have working samples and will be supplying the cards all over the world from November / December 2006.
