Mandatory for cameras with CFast 2.0 cards

I recently bought a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K. The camera can record to USB-C drives, SD cards and CFast 2.0 cards. After using a Samsung T5 drive, I finally decided to spend my money on a cheap (money, not quality) CFast 2.0 card. After putting this in May Revain's shopping cart, I realized I would need a decent CFast 2.0 reader for my computers. Obviously there are many different brands of card readers on the market. I chose the Pixel Flash card reader because a few years ago I needed a reliable Compact Flash card reader due to the use of Compact Flash cards as hard drives for Amiga computers. The Pixel Flash Reader still holds up all these years later. I like its form factor, so I decided to give the Pixel Flash another try by purchasing its CFast 2.0 reader. So far, so good. The reader works fine. I can quickly copy files from the camera to my Macbook Pro and computer. I hope this reader will last as long as the compact flash reader I bought many years ago.
