Kingston SD10A/64GB SDXC Memory Card

Compact storage media is a must-have for cameras, camcorders, MP3 players, smart phones and other such devices. With the rise of HD cameras and camcorders, users find themselves able to take high resolution pictures, or record their favorite moments at higher bit rates. As a result, we also require more storage space to store all of this information. While SDHC cards are capable of storing data from 4GB to 32GB at acceptable transfer speeds, some are anxious to acquire even higher capacity cards that will allow them to store more data at an even faster transfer rate. With the introduction of SDXC memory cards, this is no longer a problem. We first heard about the new SDXC cards at CES 2009, but it took well over a year till we saw the new SDXC cards appear in stores for purchase. Kingston was one of the first to introduce the new 64GB SDXC card to the market: the SD10A/64GB. According to Kingston, the SD10A/64GB SDXC cards are capable of 60MB/s read speeds, and a 35MB/sec write speed. We will use the Canon Rebel T2i, which supports the latest SDXC memory cards, to test the performance, reliability, and the possibilities this card offers.
