Questions & Answers

Shopper : I have a Olympus xd picture card M2gb from my Olympus stylus 1030 sw camera. I need a card reader ,so I can upload the pictures on my computer, will this device work?ANASTASIA H : It's very solid, and a bit heavy as far as a field tripod goes. Definitely not a graphite type weight, though I'm not sure if it's aluminum. However, it's a strong, durable tripod, and I've been very happy with it.SCOTT G : I believe it is. The tripod is very sturdy but lightweight.
Shopper : IS this used where you do not have a slot in your computer to insert and read the card?ANDREW R : I believe that this is version 2.
Shopper : I purchased an all in 1 mini card reader for my xD card and have not had much success using it on an XP computer or a Vista. Is this reader compatible with all?CRAIG H : Hi Jimmy, the lights are sold as day-light balanced so I would guess the CRI is around 80. CraigJOHN C : I have no idea. Nor any idea why I was asked. But thanks for thinking of me! The500 LED assembly was robust enough to survive being dropped off the airline luggage belt off the plane in Anchorage, along with half the luggage on the flight, as we passengers looked on staring out the window, unable to do anything about it.ANDREW R : Unfortunately that spec has not been provided by the manufacturer. Color temp ranges between 5200-5800K, max output at 1 meter is approximately 3100 lux.

Very handy

SD Cards are going away on more modern cameras and USB is stepping in for storage, and this is the product to have in that kind of position.

what I needed

My son uses an old Fuji camera when he goes to camp, I bought this to transfer the xd card to the computer, as the driver for the old camera was obsolete. This ia just what we needed and at a good price

Excellent product!

So much easier than digging out the cables, hooking up the camera, plugging in to the computer, turning camera on then waiting for it to boot up. Even easier than fumbling with the card slots on my computer down on the floor. Just slide the card into the reader, then plug reader into USB hub on desk and it opens right up! Wish I had found this years ago!

Not Worth It

I own the "MAUSB-100", and thought this would be an upgrade. Boy was I wrong. Aside from the improved looks, It's about 1/3 the transfer speed of the "MAUSB-100". It didn't cost enough to bother sending back ,so I just through it in a drawer and forgot about it.

This sleek USB reader/writer is designed to transform an xD-picture card into a portable storage device, capable of transporting not only images, but audio, video and data. Compatible with high-speed USB 2.0 (and USB 1.1), the MAUSB-500 is small enough to carry in your pocket, but powerful enough to hold up to and including a 2 GB xD card in capacity.

Priced for value, the MAUSB-500 is an essential accessory to any xD-compatible camera.
