Summary: FW800 CF reader
Comment: Transfers about 3 RAW files a second. Very fast. It does feel sort of cheap, but so far is working fine.

Summary: Fast reader but flawed FireWire 800 Implementation
Comment: The reader is indeed fast. But...
One of the features that I was interested in was the pass thru FireWire 800 port for daisy chaining of devices. Unfortunately if the reader is in a chain with other FireWire 800 devices it will not operate. It may also prevent other devices in the chain from operating properly. This is unfortunate as many machines only have one 800 port, and FireWire 800 hubs are expensive. Below is the reply that I received from Lexar about the issue.
-- Lexar Technical Support --
Thank you for contacting us. The FireWire 800 reader is designed to daisy chain with other of the FireWire 800 readers. You can daisy chain up to 4 of the readers together. They are not designed to work daisy chained with other devices like external hard drives. Best suggestion I can give for a case like yours is you would want to purchase a powered FireWire 800 hub to connect the 2 different devices to your system.

Summary: Pro Series CF Reader A Must
Comment: This is the fasted reader I have ever seen. Clears a full 8gb CF card in minutes. A must for any professional where time is of the essence.

Summary: lexar firewire 800 reader
Comment: Amazing how much faster the transfer compared to USB!
This makes using a 8GB card practical (provided, of course, that the card is USDM or 300x or faster).
Highly recommended.

Summary: WOW!!!!
Comment: What a time saver!!! I used to dread taking so many shots for fear of 2+ hours of uploading my shots to the computer. Once I got this, I fear no full 4gig or 8gig CF card. If you shoot 1k's shots or more per outing or shoot in RAW, this reader is for you.
