Green bananas! Ouch, that's harsh. I don't know, Jim might be getting a bit
long in the tooth but I think he has a better chance of being with us than
you up in hungry bear, shaky shaky land.

Thanks, Ken.  I always suspected that the slow upload from CF cards
stemmed from the cards themselves, not the connection to the computer.
It's a combination of things. I've gone through several card readers.
The ones that were certainly faster than the E-1 and E-3 proved
unreliable and ended up failing or whatever at some point. The one
that I still have is rather slow, but it works without grief. The E-1
isn't the very fastest, by any means, but it's not horribly slow
either. My previous laptop had a built-in CF card slot and it was just
slightly faster with the same cards.

The one thing that I've found that speeds up the process the most is
hand copying the files from the cards to a folder on my primary image
HD and then importing or syncing that folder in Lightroom. If you let
Lightroom do the import from the CF card to the destination folder
there is substantial delay as there is far more back-and-forth
communication going on between the computer and the card than if you
do a straight copy first.

I realize that you may be at a point in your life where you probably
no longer buy green bananas, but I think that you're doing just fine
with the slower downloads from the E-1.
