Sony Memory Sticks Reflect Declining Storage Costs
Digital Cameras & Camcorders | Sep 16, 05
Notably rapid price declines in the price of storage have been seen this year, particularly as far as digital film is concerned.
You can see this immediately by examining the price of Sony Memory Sticks. For example, a 1GB Memory Stick Pro Duo would have run you $225 five months ago, and is now available for just under $150.
Time Period: 4/18/2005 through 9/12/2005
Each tick mark represents one week
Red = High Price, Blue = Average Price, Green = Low Price
Of course that may have something to do with the fact that Sony has just released a 2GB Memory Stick Pro Duo for $199.99, which is to say you can purchase twice the memory for only about a 33% increase in cost. But perhaps the best deal in this space is being offered by B&H Photo on the 4 GB Memory Stick Pro; as of this writing they’re offering that item for $399.95 when the next lowest vendor prices on PriceSCAN.com are over $700.
