    It looks like the Sandisk is now over $100 and with the Lexar discontinued it looks like there aren't any other options for FW800. What are you guys using in the field?

    Get the RED STATION CF CARD reader. It my be pricey, but it's fast, solid, and reliable.

    I own a Sandisk myself, but I was impressed when I tried the RED reader.

    I didn't buy before because I could get the Sandisk for $50 or so, but if its over $100 then the RED is a no brainer- even if you aren't using it for RED CF cards. I definitely recommend it for RAW photography and even DSLR video shooters.
