As digital cameras continue to capture higher-quality images and videos, the need for faster and larger capacity flash memory cards that can keep up with that kind of pace is also getting bigger. With this in mind SanDisk has introduced the latest addition to its SDHC line, the SanDisk Extreme III 30MB/s Edition.

Available worldwide starting in September, the cards offer a 50 percent speed boost from today’s top-end 20MB/s cards, which will be particularly good for those fast DSLRs cameras. According to the company, they'll be able to handle 39 images in continuous shooting mode at 4.5 frames a second. The new cards will come in 4GB, 8GB, and 16GB variants, along with $65, $110, and $180 price tags respectively.
