 Lexar Media introduced Secure Digital (SD) memory cards speed-rated at 60X, which signifies a minimum sustained write speed capability of 9MB per second. Lexar's high-speed Secure Digital memory cards are ideal for digital imaging applications requiring sustained high speed, such as shooting digital photographs in high resolution burst mode and shooting digital video. Secure Digital cards are popular in digital photography and digital video applications, which require extremely fast and reliable memory card performance. If the memory card in a digital camcorder or digital still camera with video capture mode is too slow, the device will slow down or stop recording to wait for the information to clear the camera buffer.

The 60X speed of Lexar Media's new Secure Digital cards provides fast sustained write speeds to enable uninterrupted shooting, even when capturing digital video in full-motion JPEG or MPEG 4 formats. The SD cards will be available this spring in 256 and 512MB capacities.
