80% of my shooting is done w/ Canon 50D, shooting RAW, with balance being SD cards on couple other cameras. Have previous gen white 24" iMac [400 and 800 Firewire ports] and white MB [400 FW port] - plan is to get Mac Pro when they are [hopefully] released sometime this summer, thereby having as many durn ports and expansion as my heart / needs desire . So, with that all said, as wanting to download as fast and accurate as possible, what would be recommended card reader - something portable, so can take on trips, yet mainly used at the house - for mainly CF cards but also SD cards?
Have been looking at these two:
Lexar CompactFlash FireWire 800 Card Reader RW034-001
Sandisk Extreme FireWire Reader
Any thoughts [besides what I've seen from Amazon and other sites] on these, or other quality readers? Negative of the two listed above is that they are only for CF cards,,, are there any readers that can do both CF and SD cards, connected to a FW port?
