ATP Class-6 ProMax SDHC 4GB Memory Card
By Shutterbug Staff December 26, 2006 — ATP Electronics Inc. has announced the release of a Class 6 ProMax SD High Capacity SDHC 4GB memory card. This SDHC card, strictly following SD Association (SDA) v2.00 specifications, has passed rigorous testings for Class 6 certification at a recent SDA interoperability session performed by major camera manufacturers, such as Panasonic, Canon, Nikon and Casio. The Class 6 ProMax SDHC 4GB card is said to maximize the performances of newest models of high megapixel digital cameras such as Canon IXY 1000, PowerShot G7, A630/640, Panasonic DMC/SDR/DMR series, Nikon CoolPix S5, S6, D80 and Casio Exilim Z and S series digital cameras.

The SDA v2.00 specifications were established to meet the growing demand for high-definition video and high-resolution image recording capabilities in many SD host devices. The new specification allows for capacity from 4GB up to 32GB. The Association classifies 3 class speed rating – class 2, 4, 6 with minimum sustained data transfer speed rating of 2MB/sec, 4MB/sec, and 6MB/sec respectively.

Although both standard SD and SDHC cards look identical, SDHC cards are not backwards compatible with SD host devices. To ensure compatibility, check with your device manufacturers and look for SDHC logo on SD-enabled devices.
