Calumet has launched a groundbreaking 'own brand' memory card range targeting professional and serious amateur photographers across the UK. The exclusive new 'Prospec' line of digital media offers 110X CompactFlash (CF) cards with capacities up to 8GB and 75X Secure Digital (SD) cards with capacities up to 2GB.
Guy Johnson, Calumet Photographic Product Manager commented: "This new line has already proved to be a winner for the group in the US and we are already experiencing substantial demand here.
The range starts at a very high speed of 110X which compares extremely favourably with speed ratings of competitive brands at our price point."
He added: "These high capacity cards are designed for professional photographers and serious enthusiasts who shoot large files with DSLR cameras - and the range will evolve as demand grows. Prices start from just 29.99 including VAT for the Prospec 512MB 75X Secure Digital memory card.
They also ship with a lifetime hassle-free warranty (under normal user conditions) and can be used with compact digital cameras and other digital devices such as camcorders."
The new 110X CF cards are available in 512MB, 1GB, 2GB, 4GB and 8GB capacities. They are rated to perform in temperatures as low as -40F and as high as 185F and deliver data transfer speeds up to 16.6MB/sec.
