 Professional CompactFlash cards
Lexar LockTight is the only secure digital imaging solution that easily and reliably restricts unauthorized access to data stored on LockTight-enabled cards", said Dave Klenske, director, memory card business unit, Lexar. "When used in conjunction with supported digital cameras, including the popular Nikon D2X, D2Hs and Nikon D200, LockTight provides valuable peace of mind to those who need to protect their stored information."
LockTight Secure Digital flash memory cards
Beyond security, Lexar LockTight CompactFlash and Secure Digital flash memory cards deliver professional-level performance that includes a minimum sustained write speed capability of 80X and 120X, respectively, enough to take advantage of a digital SLR's burst mode shooting feature. (Lexar defines "X" within its speed-rating system as equivalent to a minimum sustained write speed capability of 150 kilobytes per second). Lexar LockTight cards are reliable storage media that allow photographers to maximize the popular high-performance features incorporated into their digital SLR cameras, while adding security functionality to their working process.
Flash Memory for Professional digital photographers
Lexar LockTight CompactFlash and Secure Digital flash memory cards are two products within the company's comprehensive line of cards and accessories developed for professional photographers. Included within that line are 133X speed-rated flash memory cards, currently available in both CompactFlash and Secure Digital formats, and uniquely designed Professional CompactFlash Readers that allow the user to simultaneously download stored information from multiple flash memory cards.
