SD to CF adapter

[taekimon]

Where can I buy SD to CF adapter (i.e. put the SD card inside the adapter to fit into CF slots) locally? seems that they are only availabel online...

I've searched SLS but can't seem to find any shops selling. Memory world @ funan/sls also dun have. I only know crook shop Active Foto used to sell ....

the one active foto have will not be able to slot into the camera CF slot.

Called them.

They don't have in stock.
They don't intend to bring in.
They are not interested to do a indent, even if there is 10 pcs.

So buy elsewhere.

Adorama US$24.95

Just out of curiosity, why are you considering this? Only reason I could think of getting this is for using the EyeFi card in my DSLR. And the EyeFi sales rep I spoke to admitted the range suffers a lot using this solution.

For me, I have an existing HD card reader that accept only CF card.( Nixvue )
I have a XD to CF adapter for my old Fuji finepix use.
Now I have the S100FS that uses SD / SDHC

why not just get a new card reader? IT show just round the corner. with SDHC cards getting cheaper everyone will need to get a card reader that can read SDHC unless you get it bundled with the SDHC card.

I think hosm means a hard disk card reader - a photo storage device that reads from card into hard disk. Not that cheap, and if I have one that is reliable I'd like to stick with it.

wanting to use sd cards on a new cam that uses CF?
yes I saw some Panasonic brands SD-to-CF converter in Japan. it still costs about S$55 after conversion.
you might as well buy a new CF.

the point is his storage device has only CF slot so if he wants to back up SD cards on his device, he will have to use a converter or change storage device which has CF and SD slots.

thanks, you understand my situation very well...

Well the other option is to get a new HD storage that accept SDHC...

i am using a PMP (portable media player) which doubles up as a portable storage device using OTG backup. unfortunately it's one way so it can copy from card-to-device but not the other way round. it doesn't have any card slot so i have to plug in a card reader which is okay with me. :bsmilie:
