Any recommendations for these? I'll be getting one of the new MacBook Pros, once I can assemble the readies, so might as well take advantage of USB 3.0 capabilities.

View Full Version : USB 3.0 - Recommended CF Card Readers? Ronald Jackson June 26th, 2012, 02:51 AM Any recommendations for these? I'll be getting one of the new MacBook Pros, once I can assemble the readies, so might as well take advantage of USB 3.0 capabilities. Ron Lee Mullen June 26th, 2012, 05:16 AM Yeah this one is USB 3.0 Lexar Professional USB 3.0 Dual-Slot SD CF Card Reader 650590165247 | eBay (http://www.ebay.com/itm/200635611922) Chris Medico June 26th, 2012, 06:03 AM I have that one and it is indeed much faster than the USB2.0 readers. You do need cards that are fast to see any improvement. As an example Class10 SDHC are not much faster on the USB3.0 reader. My UDMA CF cards are smoking fast on it though. Dan Keaton June 26th, 2012, 07:12 AM Dear Friends, Delkin makes a nice USB 3.0 CompactFlash Card Reader Here is a link for more info. They are probably available at many dealers. nanoFlash.net/compactFlash (http://www.nanoflash.net/compactflash) Ronald Jackson June 26th, 2012, 08:42 AM Thanks all. I use Transcend 400x and G-Monster 533x (I think) 64GB cards. Ron Lee Mullen June 27th, 2012, 06:02 AM So you already made up your mind before asking people? Then why bother?? Ronald Jackson June 27th, 2012, 08:25 AM Don't know what Mr.Salur is on about. Dave Sperling June 27th, 2012, 11:09 AM I'd bought the Kingston USB3 multi-reader, and the DIT who was using it on the feature I recently shot was very happy with the throughput from it. (We used an EX1/NanoFlash for 'POV camera' footage, while the A camera was an F3/Gemini combo). |
