Panasonic aims to up the ante with the development of the world’s first 32GB SD High Capacity (SDHC) memory card with Class 6 speed specification. A prototype of this memory card will be displayed at Panasonic booth #9405 during the International CES 2008.

Ideal for recording high definition videos, this novel memory card has a double capacity of the regular 16GB SD card available in the market today and can store up to 8 hours of 1440 x 1080i High Definition video for your SD camcorders. For 1920 x 1080i full High Definition video, it can record for approximately 5 hours and 20 minutes. Usable capacity is 30,979 MB.

More importantly, it ensures high quality-recording given its maximum data transfer rate of 20MB per second and Class 6 speed specification. However, there are no details on the pricing and availability to retail stores yet.
