Panasonic Announces SDXC/SDHC UHS-I Memory Cards
Compliant with UHS Speed Class 3 for Reliable 4K Video Recording
Featuring Maximum Read Speed 95MB/s and Maximum Write Speed 90 MB/s

LAS VEGAS, NV (January 5, 2015)  – Panasonic is introducing the new lineup of UHS-I type SDXC/SDHC memory cards by upgrading to the latest “SDUD” that boasts maximum read speed of 95MB/s and maximum write speed of 90MB/s, in addition to compatibility of UHS Speed Class 3 (U3)*1. In addition, the lineup includes a maximum capacity upgraded to from SDXC 64GB to 128GB.

In recent years, the standard of video content has become larger and even consumer products are capable of recording motion picture in 4K.  The footage bitrate is also higher, for products such as the Panasonic Camcorder HC-X1000 and the DMC-GH4 which record full-HD All-Intra at approximately 200Mbps. To make the most of these cutting-edge imaging tools, the recording media also needs to function so there are no dropped frames and all content data is recorded without error. By crystallizing the technology long fostered through the development of digital camcorders and cameras, Panasonic is proud to produce the high quality memory cards that excel not only in the data transfer speed but also in the stability and durability under wide usage conditions to keep the data safe for the long term.
