Sony recently announced a new option in high definition recording. Since recording in high definition takes up a lot of space, it is necessary to have large memory sticks, and this new 16GB is sure to be a good amount of space.

Basically, this large amount of storage space is ideal for Sony’s new Handycam camcorders, such camcorders utilize AVCHD compression technology. This memory card can store up to 110 minutes of high def video recording in 1920 mode. Nearly 6 hours of high def video when capturing in 1440 LP mode. Another nice thing about this is its size, it is about the size of a postage stamp. It’s main use is for recording HD video because of its ability to quickly and efficiently transfer large amounts of video between devices.

After shooting your own videos, you can then remove it and place it in the Memory Stick media slot and then you can edit it and share it on the computer.

The 16GB Memory Stick PRO Duo media card is set to be available in March for around $300 at www.sonystyle.com, as well as at Sony Style retail stores and at authorized dealers nationwide.
