Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of USB 2.0 Hi-speed 15-IN-1 (Retail Package)
Customer Review: Works as advertised
Summary: 5 Stars
Not much to say. I've used it with CF and SD cards and it reads and writes fast. I recommend it. Customer Review: Not as fast as I thought it would be
Summary: 3 Stars
Product is OK, but it is not very fast when you want to see the pictures directly from your card (you need to download the photos to your computer in order to see them).Customer Review: great value
Summary: 4 Stars
needed a quality xmas present to go with camera and this was a great addition for a presentCustomer Review: Fast, light, and versatile reader
Summary: 5 Stars
As far as I can tell, this reader is everything it is supposed to. It might cost a lot less than the Sandisk multicard reader, but I have no idea what a more expensive model might have to improve on the Kingston. Read and write are blazing fast, limited by my cards themselves rather than the reader.
The Kingston is made of light plastic, true, but I actually view as a positive, making it that much easier to carry around. It is unlikely to survive long in a firestorm or in a vat of sulfuric acid, so unfortunately you'll have to limit its use inside of active volcanoes and car batteries. However, in more ordinary computing environments, you will probably not perceive any difference. It does not look or feel like it is going to fall apart under regular use.
The only oddity is that there seems to be little rhyme or reason in the drive letter mounting order of the drives. For example, on my machine, the bottom left slot (CompactFlash) is the lowest letter (E) and the bottom right one (MemoryStick) is the highest letter (H). This doesn't make too much sense, and there is no way to find out which drive is which until you plug in some media and see which drive activates. I didn't think this was too important, and not worth a full star deduction.
Customer Review: Great gadget! Works as advertised.
Summary: 5 Stars
This nice little item is just what you need for quickly transfering data between your digital Cameras, Cell Phones or Palm / Windows Mobile devices.
I use it to quickly download the photos and videos from my digital Cameras' Memory Stick Duo. Its also very usefull for uploding Mp3s, Apps, games and pictures into my Cell Phone and Palm computer.
With this device you can forget about installing awkward and complicated software for each device on your computer. No more slow or limited transfers (its very fast). Just pop out the memory from any device using SD, MicroSD, Mem Stick Duo/Pro (15 in all), stick it into the card reader, and download/upload to your hearts content.
The Kingston USB card reader requires no software, and works right out of the box. Save yourself the hassle of installing multiple transfer software for all your digital devices, and get this item!
