Card Readers

Card readers are designed to read and transfer data from memory cards to a computer, laptop or other compatible device. They are useful for transferring photos, videos, documents and other files from SD, microSD and other memory card formats.

What is a card reader used for?

A dedicated card reader provides direct access to data stored on a memory card through the appropriate interface. It can be useful for photographers, videographers, action camera users, drone owners and other devices that use removable memory cards.

USB and USB-C card readers

Models can connect through USB-A or USB-C. The right option depends on the connector available on your device. Compact card readers are especially convenient for laptops and mobile workstations.

Supported memory card formats

Depending on the model, card readers may support SD, microSD, SDHC, SDXC, CompactFlash and other formats. Multi-format readers can work with several card types.

Data transfer speed

If the card reader will be used for large photos, videos or other files, pay attention to the connection interface and rated transfer speed. Actual performance also depends on the memory card and connected device.
