Product Description

Product Description
SanDisk is proud to announce their newest format to the SD memory card family: Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC) This 4 GB capacity memory card is rated Class 2 for speed and performance based on SD 2.0 specifications.

The SDHC memory card is a highly secure stamp-sized flash memory card, which can be used in a variety of digital products: digital music players, cellular phones, handheld PCs (HPCs), digital cameras, digital video camcorders, smart phones, car navigation systems and electronic books, that follows the SD 2.00 specifications. The SDHC card has a security feature for protection of copyrighted data.

What is SDHC?
To support the higher capacity needs, SD cards are now requiring a different design. The new SD 2.0 specifications - which supports 4 GB and up - is called Secure Digital High Capacity(SDHC). The SD Association has created and defined 3 speed classes to help you identify speed and performance capabilities/minimum requirements of SDHC cards and their SDHC host products. Details on the SD 2.0 specification: www.sdcard.org or SanDisk.com/SDHC

Cards address data (read and write) at numerous speeds. Many factors impede this performance. SDHC guarantees a minimum read and write speed necessary to handle recording high quality video and audio. The maximum card speed may vary, but you can always depend on SDHC cards to meet your SDHC host product's high quality performance requirements.

SDHC Compatibility Information
Because SDHC works differently (supports the new higher capacity cards) this new card format is not backwards compatible with legacy SD format host devices.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works as Advertised, November 1, 2008

By	Joseph Bruner (Washington DC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Not much you can say about this card other than it stores data well. I took it on my honeymoon and shot pictures with my 8MP Canon SD1100. We were able to fit 16 days worth of pictures at the highest resolution (640+ pictures and a handful of movies) and still have room for around 190 more pictures.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great storage card!!, April 15, 2008

By	perennialgardener - See all my reviews

I bought this to use with a Pentax K100D Super digital SLR camera. At the middle range quality setting, it holds about 2,000 pictures! At the lowest, almost 9,000!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Value Of All Flash Cards, October 14, 2008

By	Martin A Hogan "Marty From SF" (San Francisco, CA. (Hercules)) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

If you don't know, these memory flash cards can be used in music players, cell phones, laptops, desktops, digital cameras, digital video camcorders, GPS navigation systems and electronic books. But why choose this size? 4G is plenty of room for hundreds of high quality photographs and a great number of songs. If you jump up to the next size, the 8G, the cost is nearly three times what you pay for the 4G. Besides, the majority of people also use a 4G-memory stick for passing information between computers or to your television set (if there is a USB port). They are all virtually the same in quality, but for the value, the 4G flash card is the best.
