If you are a professional photographer, you don’t need reminding that time is money. Today’s cameras can shoot at very high speeds and a day’s shooting can easily fill a lot of memory cards with thousands of photos. All those images need to be uploaded to a computer so they can be curated and then edited.
Getting photos from a memory card to a computer has always been a bottleneck in many photographers’ workflow. It can take a long time to transfer the contents of a large-capacity memory card to a Mac or PC. To speed things up a bit, Lexar has just announced the launch of a high-speed memory card reader that can read the latest generation CFexpress Type B memory cards and transfer them to computers using the latest USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 interface.
Lexar makes a range of flash memory cards and drives and now it has announced the Lexar Professional CFexpress Type B USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Reader. This card reader has been specially designed for photographers who demand the fastest transfer speeds, even when on the go.
The new card reader can offload large batches of high-quality images and RAW 8K video from CFexpress Type B cards to a computer at USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 speeds, boosting workflows from location to post-production.
This professional-level reader includes both a 2-in-1 USB Type-C to USB Type-A cable and USB Type-C to USB Type-C cable for port-to-port connection with laptops and desktop computers. It's compact enough to slip into a pocket and, thanks to plug-and-play functionality, it can offload content at high speed, even on location.
If you shoot photos using a camera that takes the latest CFexpress Type B memory cards, this new reader from Lexar looks to be the best solution on the market at the moment. Transfer speeds are dependent on the host computer supporting USB 3.2 Gen 2 but it’s also backwardly compatible with older USB standards, albeit at reduced read speeds.
Pricing and Availability: The Lexar Professional CFexpress Type B USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Reader is available from now and retails for $69.99.
