Lexar launched a new 133x speed-rated Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC™) flash memory card for professional photographers and those who needs a flexible and a stable storage solution for their SDHC-enabled digital cameras. The 4GB card has write speed capability of 20MB per second and comes bundled with Lexar Image Rescue™ 3 and Corel® Paint Shop Pro® X. Lexar Professional SDHC cards will be available in March.

“Our new Professional SDHC card meets the increasing storage capacity requirements of professionals and enthusiasts who demand the highest performance and want to take full advantage of the speed and file sizes provided by today’s digital SLR cameras,” said John Omvik, Director of Professional Product Marketing, Lexar. “The RAW workflow capabilities of these new cards allow users to fully exploit the great flexibility and image quality that DSLR cameras offer. Capturing large RAW files on smaller-sized cards was a limitation in the past, but our Professional 4GB SDHC card removes this limitation. SDHC-based camera users can now benefit from the many advantages of high-capacity storage that CompactFlash-based system users have always enjoyed.”
