Title: Card Readers
Post by: Zave Smith on December 20, 2017, 05:43:23 pm

Any recommendations for a fast CF or SD card reader that is compatable with USB-C for my new MacBook Pro?

Sandisk makes a great little USB-C SD reader that the Apple stores carry - about $50 and very fast... I don't know about CF other than a USB 3.0 reader with an adapter cable. You can get cables that are conventional USB (either printer-style or micro - card readers sometimes take one, sometimes the other) on one end, USB-C on the other, saving the extra adapter

I have been using the USB 3.0 Transcend TS-RDF8K for the past year. It's fast and so far, reliable. I'm also considering ordering a SanDisk Extreme Pro SDHC/SDXC UHS-II Card Reader/Writer next year when I buy a A7RIII.
