At PMA 07, SanDisk Corp. announced a 4-Gigabyte (GB) addition to its SanDisk Extreme® III pro line of SDHC (SD High Capacity) Class 6 memory cards. The 4GB SanDisk Extreme III card can store more than 2,000 high-resolution pictures or up to 8 hours of MPEG 4 video2.¹ Devices must be SDHC compatible in order to work with SDHC memory cards.

"The SanDisk Extreme III line has become a best-of-class standard for professional photographers who demand speed, durability and reliability," said Tanya Chuang, SanDisk's director of retail product marketing, global imaging market. Now we're raising the bar again with these new cards. And by including an SDHC-compatible reader with each SDHC card, we're enabling users to easily transfer images from their cameras to their computers."

Major camera manufacturers, including Canon, Nikon, Panasonic and Leica, have already shipped or announced a variety of pro-level digital cameras that use the SDHC format (designed to allow for capacities greater than 2GB). Consumer-oriented digital still and video cameras that use standard SDHC cards have been available at retailers since last year.

All SanDisk Extreme III cards offer ESP Technology to streamline data transfer, RescuePRO® software to recover accidentally deleted files and images, a dedicated technical support telephone hotline and a limited lifetime warranty.
