Hello. Today I picked up a Transcend 32gb compact flash card for my 5D Mark III and it seems to work fine in the camera, no issue there. However, when i go to transfer the photos to my computer, the transfer speed is pretty slow. 1-2mb/sec. I was using an 8gb card I had and that was fine, 20mb/sec I believe. Tested this by taking 4 shots and then transferring them via picasa (out of habit) and via windows explorer.
My question is whether the size of the card is affecting the time it takes to simply see how many pictures are even there and then slowing things down. Or do I have some other problem.
What really stumps me is CrystelDiskMark, a benchmark program shows a 120/90 read/write speed. Much slower than advertised, but way faster than what I am getting on my own. Admittedly the above test isn't real world, but 1-2mb/sec? Not sure what I am missing here.
Lastly, I tried this after only an in camera format, windows format to exfat and then the Transcend utility (complete) followed by an in camera format.
Any help is appreciated. Not sure if it is the card or simply user error. :-p
Thanks!
