mpeneguy 0 #1 September 23, 2010 We are all going to card based media. So, what is everyone using as card readers and how often are you having to replace the card readers? We have been going through about a card reader every 2 weekends and I think there are better readers out there. What brands and models are you having luck with? Please also include number of uses. My DZ gets about 150 uses out of the card readers they use. I'll try to get the brand and model this weekend to post here. So, everyone can avoid that one.

DSE 5 #2 September 23, 2010 Have a couple Hyundai's that work well, have everything in them. Have a few Dynex' that work great too. Kensingtons seem to have a lot of problems, at least in my house. The Targus' also seem to have a lot of problems (in my experience). Sonys....don't go near em', IMO. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The111 1 #3 September 23, 2010 I bought one of these on a whim in a Wal-Mart 4 years ago, the night after first jumping my SLR. http://www.amazon.com/Lexar-READER-RW022-001-Retail-Package/dp/B00032Q3WY Still works fine after 4 years of being in my camera bag and being used often. Of course, that's just me, not an entire DZ. I also have one of these in my tower: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820132021 It works fine, but the CF slot tolerance is pretty poor... you have to look very closely when you insert the card, or the pins won't line up.www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
monkycndo 0 #4 September 23, 2010 This card reader has worked well for me in the past.50 donations so far. Give it a try. You know you want to spank it Jump an Infinity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
howardwhite 6 #5 September 23, 2010 Dynex (BestBuy house brand) is o.k, but I find the Belkin one the best. HW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
