Combining the already impressive Class 10 specification with the performance boost of UHS-I, Transcend's SDHC Class 10 Ultra High Speed memory cards unleash the full potential of today's high-end digital cameras and camcorders.
Developed by the Secure Digital (SD) Card Association as part of its SD version 3.01 specifications, Ultra-High Speed Class 1 (UHS-I) is the fastest category card available today. The new Class 10 SDHC UHS-I cards boast a staggering four times faster transfer rate compared to Class 10 alone, realizing transfer speeds of up to 85MB/s when paired with advanced UHS-I compatible devices. As a result, these cards are highly recommended for professional digital camera or camcorder enthusiasts aiming to capture high-speed consecutive shots and smooth full HD video.

To meet these demands, Transcend SDHC Class 10 UHS-I cards are available in high-capacity sizes 8GB or 16GB, enough to store 2 hours and 40 minutes of video content when recording in high quality 1920x1080 AVCHD format at 13Mbps compression rate. Moreover, with a slight reduction in quality settings, the same 16GB card can record up to six full hours of high definition video.
Transcend's SDHC Class 10 UHS-I memory cards are an excellent value compared to other memory cards in the same class without compromising speed, capacity, and reliability. Each card features built-in ECC (Error Correction Code) that automatically detects and corrects any errors that might occur during data transfer. Additionally, the SDHC10 UHS-I card includes Transcend's own RecoveRx™ software - an extraordinarily effective tool for bringing back accidentally deleted or lost files. The new UHS-I memory cards are recommended to be used with Transcend's RDF8 USB 3.0 card reader or RDF1 ExpressCard Reader.
Transcend's new SDHC Class 10 UHS-I memory card is currently available in two capacities: 8GB (US$32 MSRP); 16GB (US$54 MSRP), and backed by Transcend's limited lifetime warranty.
