Has anybody tried a Compact flash card to sd Converter

Just wondering if anyone has tried a compact flash to SD card converter made by Delkin?

I saw these on Delkin's Site and Compact flash cards seem to be getting harder and harder to find. At Least good ones.

Never even seen one of these before. So I'm guessing you just slid your SD card into this thing? Pretty cool if you ask me. I wonder if there is any drop off rate or performance drop off?

The title of this thread is wrong.

You said CF to SD converter, which is pretty much impossible because of size differences.

You MEANT to say SD to CF convertor.

No I haven't used one, but I HAVE used a Micro-SD to SD converter. Works fine.

I do have one .... works great IF you're not in a hurry. Maybe its me, or my camera but it writes a little bit slower on continuous. I bought it because I have tons of SD cards and it just made sense ... I think.

Used it once on vacation when I filled up my CF cards, I was glad to have it then.

It is what it is.

I may be wrong on the title but I figured if it was a compact flash card that allowed sd cards it was compact flash to sd converter :slapface: otherwise, my thinking was, if was the other way sd to compact flash converter I am not sure how I would get the compact flash into the sd card.

but thanks for the info gonna order one to try.

:thumbsup:
