The Delkin USB 3.2 CFexpress Type B Card and SD UHS-II Memory Card Reader combines a compact form factor with support for high-performance media used in professional broadcast, cinema, and photography. It uses a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C interface (10 Gb/s) to offload large files, including high-resolution raw images and 8K, 4K, Full HD, and 3D video. The reader aims to streamline your workflow by moving large media files quickly and without extra power adapters or drivers.
The reader uses anodized aluminum construction to increase durability and extend its service life. In addition, multiple heat sinks help manage internal temperatures during heavy transfers to reduce the risk of overheating. You can store a single CFexpress Type B card inside the unit and secure it under the included rubber end cover, which protects the card from bumps, impact, water exposure, dust, and other debris. The SDXC UHS-II card slot is placed on the side of the reader for easy access while the device sits flat.
With a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C interface rated at 10 Gb/s, the reader supports fast transfer speeds suitable for professional photographers and videographers. It can move large files such as high-resolution raw images and 8K, 4K, Full HD, and 3D video more quickly than older interfaces. The device is plug-and-play and draws power from the USB connection—no external power source is required. For broader system use, it is backward compatible with USB 3.0, 2.0, and 1.1 ports, although transfers on those legacy ports will occur at the slower speeds those standards allow.
The reader is compact and designed for on-the-go use. It measures 4.5" long and weighs less than 1/4 pound, making it easy to carry in a backpack, camera bag, laptop case, or everyday-carry bag. Whether you are traveling to remote locations or working from a mobile studio, the reader’s small footprint takes up minimal space while letting you access your files virtually anywhere.
The reader uses a plug-and-play design so you can access your files immediately without installing drivers. It connects to a computer via USB Type-C and comes with both a USB Type-C to Type-C cable and a USB Type-C to USB Type-A cable to ensure compatibility with a variety of host ports. Because it is bus-powered, you do not need an external power adapter for normal operation.
