The Kingston high speed media reader is exactly that, high speed. With its USB 3 connection it can transfer files from your memory cards at far higher speeds than most computers built in media readers. I have a couple of Dell computers which have the 19-in-1 media readers built into them and use them for SD and CF cards but always found them fairly slow when transferring files. The Kingston reader is much faster which seems to be a bit of an anomaly. I would have thought a computers built in reader would have transferred files faster as it is fairly much attached directly to the motherboard. Setup is super simple. Just plug the media reader into a spare USB 3 port on your computer (it is USB 2 backwards compatible but speeds obviously will reduce greatly), wait for Windows to recognize and off you go. When it is plugged in, the top of the reader will illuminate red which is a nice touch. The supplied USB 3 cable is around 3 feet in length and so should give you plenty enough leeway to place the reader where you wish. This new model supports the latest UHS-II SD cards of which I have a few for my Canon cameras. Although the camera itself doesn't support UHS-II, only UHS-I, the reader does and transfer of pictures from the card onto my system is a lot faster. The reader itself is just larger than a credit card in area and around a centimeter deep so is also perfect for travelling with and plugging into your laptop. I have had no trouble with the reader accepting varying speed cards (remember to unmount a card via the system tray after you have finished transferring files and don't simply pull the card out). An excellent product for the price and my only wish is that it would also support CFAST 2.0 and XQD cards as well but for reading SD, micro-SD and CF cards it works great and comes in a good price. Recommended.

Looking for a card reader? This. This right here is what you need. Fast, sturdy, versitile. Of course, the speed is heavily dependent on your card's read/write speed, but that being said, I've used USB 3.0 devices that barely got 2.0 speeds. Only shows the quality of this reader. Speaking quality, it's solidly build. Two notable features are that the cable is replaceable, USB 3.0 micro-B. The included cable is also pretty lengthy. Also, if you are going to use it as something that will plug into the back of your PC and never unplug it, it has rubber strips on the bottom so it won't slide around much. Lastly, outside of SD and microSD cards, this reads MS and CF cards. I got it for the of the CF card option initially, for retro computing, and I am happy to report that both type I and type II fit right in as you'd expect. Little to no play as many other CF readers, so your pins should be reasonably safe. The MS slot still feels a little useless, but I found some use out of it, as you can get microSD RAID card adapters to MS, converting previously useless cards to something more useful-ish on older machines. Overall, it's a great card reader. Bonus points, it worked on both Windows 98 and XP, as well as 7 and 10, obviously.

Works with Linux, as tested on Fedora 21. Some (surprisingly expensive) cameras ship with terrible drivers that assume Windows. Evidence is building that connecting these cameras directly to a Linux system might actually damage the camera. I haven't experienced that, but I have seen some weird things with a Canon SX50 HS that I won't go into here. For the cautious, the solution is a card reader, where file system drivers are far more stable. Pros: - USB 3, and faster transfers than a direct connection to the SX50 HS camera - More flexible, in that it's easier to shuffle cards into a reader than shuffle cards into a camera. This might not matter to you, depending on your card storage capacity, and how much you need to transfer. - Light and compact. It weighs a couple of ounces. It's about 5/8"H x 3 1/2"W x 1 7/8"D. Possible Cons: - Plastic shell. Light, yes., Rugged, no. That said, it does not feel flimsy in the hand. - USB Type A to USB Micro-B USB 3.0 cable. You might already be travelling with one for an external hard drive, but you should know. The included cable is about 3 1/2 feet long. You need it for USB 3 speeds, but if you were hoping for Type A to Type A, you will be dissapointed. Unkowns: - Have only owned it for a few weeks. No clue about longevity.

Works great, gets the transfer speeds I would expect to get from the appropriate cards. I typically use Sandisk cards, the Extreme Pro version, but also have some Prograde cards. I am mostly a photo shooter, so the amount of data I have to transfer is never all that much. It never gets very warm on my either, unlike my other card reader, which gets very hot. I have a lot of difference devices that use various cards, so I needed one that could read them all. From Compact Flash to SD (both UHS-I and UHS-II), to micro SD, it reads everything I have. I don't have any MS cards, so I can't speak for that. One negative thing to point out - The cable is not built in, so if you need it for travel you also have to store the cable on it's own. A nitpick to be sure, but wanted people to know in case they were wondering. Some readers that are made for travel might be a better solution in that case, where the cable and device are made to be stored together. Otherwise, the included cable is plenty long enough to plug into the rear of my PC, which is where I would suggest. The front ports don't seem to transfer as fast (at least on my PC), and the hub I have on my desk doesn't work with it (not sure why).
