Verbatim Australia has announced their new Mini DVD+R Double Layer media. Measuring only 8cm in diameter, these discs can hold up to 2.6 GB of data or 55 minutes worth of DVD quality video.
Verbatim, a pioneer in developing advanced DVD and Double Layer technologies, today announced their new Mini DVD+R Double-Layer (DL) disc. Measuring only 8cm in diameter, the new discs provide nearly one hour of continuous video capture time on a single side or 2.6 GB of storage capacity- almost twice the capacity of current mini DVDR discs. Five-packs of Verbatim Mini DVD+R DL media will be available in July 2006, when the first new Mini +R DL-compatible camcorders are launched. The media can also be recorded with drives supporting the +R DL format.
Verbatim's Mini DVD+R DL media is shipping in 5 pack jewel cases and will hit store shelves later this month. More information can be found here.
