| Review: Delock Card Reader FireWire B (Nr. 91694) |
| Over the last year or so, the supply of FireWire-equipped CompactFlash card readers has almost completely dried up, despite the fact that, for many photographers who use Macs, FireWire is their computer's only peripheral port that's fast enough to allow for efficient offloading of pictures. That's the bad news. The good news is that a new FireWire 800 CompactFlash card reader has arrived on the scene, one that provides true FireWire 800 speeds, a compact design and excellent compatibility with all but certain older cards. Called the Delock Card Reader FireWire B (Nr. 91694), it nicely fills the opening left by the demise of all earlier FireWire readers. If you're a Mac user in particular it may carry you through until native USB 3.0 ports begin popping up on Apple's products. Read on for a rundown of our experience with the Delock reader, based on both six weeks of regular use as well as performance and compatibility testing. |
