100 HD Movies on a Stamp-Sized Chip

Bryan Arnold · 01-11-2009, 03:17 PM

Found a nice article on Toms Hardware about SD cards. 2 Terabyte on a SD card! Seems like the DSLR makers are going to dive deeper into video capabilities. Quote from the article:

"Canon seems pretty stoked about the new format. "SDXC is a large-capacity card that can store more than 4,000 RAW images, which is the uncompressed mode professionals use. That capacity, combined with the exFAT file system, increases movie recording time and reduces starting time to improve photo capturing opportunities,” said Shigeto Kanda, general manager at Canon. “Improvements in interface speed allow further increases in continuous shooting speed and higher resolution movie recordings."

This could be a good thing for Red Ray I guess. It opens a lot of opportunities regarding the size of the player and the amount of Redcode compression.
