CF Reader for iPad Pro?

[Geckotek]

Just picked up the iPad Pro 12.9’ and plan to move my editing over from my MBP. Looking for recommendations for a CF + SD reader but most of the posts I’ve found are pretty old.

Any suggestions on current models out there today?

What are you using CF cards in? Been a long while since I used them. I still have a 1GB IBM Microdrive from ages ago - cost a small fortune back then (circa 2000, used with 3.3MP Canon G1).

5D III

Is the recommendation from experience?

Damn, had forgotten about microdrives. Think I dumped my last one when I moved several years back.

Experience - no. I looked at what was available on Amazon from the perspective of what would I buy.

The microdrive was a real technological wonder back in its day.

I had a Lexar USB one that I used with my 5DIII. I bought the Apple USB A to USB C adapter and it worked fine. Bonus you can plug most USB A accessories in.

Is it the one that pops up? I have that one. Will have to give it a try. Thanks!

No worries. You can also the plug the Canon camera cable into the adapter and it works.

Connected it tonight and it worked great! Thanks again!
