    Issues with CF cards

    While the unit gets the job done, I had issues getting CF cards installed without bending pins on the device. The "guide" for installing CF cards just doesn't work well. I am keeping this as a backup but use a reader I got elsewhere as my primary.

    I don't have any problems uploading or downloading my pictures with my MacBook Pro or my Windows base disktop computer. This is a great product for the price, it's money well spent.

    I needed a way to download pictures from my older Canon Eos Digital Rebel. It is no longer supported for the newer versions of Windows. I plugged it in, inserted the Compact Flash card, and downloaded my pictures. It worked without a problem.

    I'm running Windows 10 64-bits and this card reader works perfectly. It's plug and play. I was able to insert in a micro-SD card for a file transfer without any difficulty. There's no noticeable issue with read and write speed for this version.

    This memory card reader can accept almost any type of card you have laying around. The ports around the mirco USB connector can be a little annoying because the cord gets in the way, but it's a good product.

    I bought one and it worked for a while, but failed. I also failed to return it. I really needed one, so I bought another. So far, so good. I can transfer my pictures to the computer.

    I am able to connect my memory cards without any problems and it has made the connection every time I inserted a card. I would have preferred a USB 3 device because I transfer large amounts of data

    The first one that was bought did not work right out of the package. Since this item was the only potato 2 different Best Buys, bought another and it worked okay but not particularly fast.

    I have been a pro photographer for over 40 years. Now I shoot in digital. I bought two of the card readers. Both have failed reading sandisk extreme cf cards. One broke first time using it, the pins came loose. I was wrong buying the second one but need a card reader. I now have the sandisk 3.0 reader.

    Its great this reader has so many memory slots. The only issue I found is with the CF card slot. The shallow depth to insert the card makes it easy to bend pins if not carefull.

    Card reader works excellent. I shoot lots of photos, in a couple of different card formats, so reader works just fine regarless of which type card. Saves on battery in the camera, faster and cleaner import.

    This adapter has been very helpful to me. I just packed it on a trip to download photos as I went along. The cord unplugs and wraps around the unit easily, making for easy packing. Nice product.

    Cheap Junk

    We bought one of these for professional photography use and found it to be poorly made. The pins on the long side bend and deform very easily. We took the first one back, thinking we got unlucky, then the same thing happened to the second one, rendering it useless. It went back as well, and we won't be buying a third. We use a lot of card readers in our business and this one is not very good, especially for $20.

    This is really good, especially for digital cameras with hard to find or expensive USB transfer cables. Bought it because I lost my Nikon cable, which would have been double the price.

    It was fine the first couple of times I used it, but the 5th time, I found a bent pin in the CF slot. I was able to get it to read one more time, but not since.

    Ford an old camera with a memory stick pro. Didn't realize I wouldn't be able to download the pictures. Bought this today and was able to download the pictures from our cruise.

    I love this because so many people use different as cards and I can access every one. The only con is the cord is rather long but I can deal.

    The new APC 450VA UPS is awesome! No more opening to connect the battery. Simple plug in connection on bottom of unit. Much improved battery life up to 45 minutes.
