Kingston CompactFlash Card Hits 8GB

Kingston Technology’s range of CompactFlash Elite Pro cards now includes an 8GB Type 1 version, the massive capacity being an ideal storage choice for imaging professionals and tech tragics who simply must have the biggest and best.

Those who find the 8GB card’s $690 price-tag too steep can consider other sizes, including 512MB, 1GB, 2GB and 4GB CompactFlash cards.

Kingston says the  8GB card enhances the performance of power-hungry imaging applications used by both advanced amateur and professional photographers and that when used in conjunction with matching high performance digital devices it provides ultra-fast transfer times with read speeds up to 8MB/sec. and write speeds up to 6.75MB/sec.

“The new 8GB CF Elite Pro card will allow photographers to capture more images on a single card and better manage their workflow,” said Kingston’s Marites Bairstow.

It comes with a lifetime warranty and full-time technical support.
