Yes, cameras rarely meet the card's maximum rated speed. I've also never found a reader that permitted the maximum rated read speed either.

I would like to see a timing test which measured read speed in a good card reader... Godfrey On Mar 28, 2007, at 12:42 AM, Sylwester Pietrzyk wrote: > That's theory.
