I think there is or will be a better ventilated reader. The vendors must mean ambient of the card, not ambient outside a third party reader they have no control over. Plus 70 degrees is the max these vendors say. And the card gets the same temperature unloading 3 pictures as (a 100?), so that cannot contribute much. Yes exactly, if you take the card out quickly after reading it, and you do not burn your fingers on the metal side I would believe you feel the "ambient" inside the reader plus what the card added. So the reader gets hot and makes the card hot too, as opposed to the other way round? after all Nikon did it with a firmware update. How else can the Z perform the same operations at the same speeds, with so much less temperature rise?Īnd you might as well wait untill there is a reader that can do both XQD and CFE. And hope there is a better reader before new firmware comes out. I would be tempted to return that reader, or exchange it for a type/brand that does not have this feature/fault. OK, the reader acts as a little breadtoaster then. Maybe I'm just thrown off because XQD cards do not get hot. It's presumably why they have a metal case after all - for better heat dissipation. Given the extremely high speeds of CFExpress, maybe this is normal. I haven't tried reading from it via the USB in the Z6, in my experience that is an extremely slow process by comparison to a reader. Whereas in the reader it gets hot even if I'm not transferring anything. I've only noticed the card getting what I would call warm after long bursts in the Z6. But the question poses itself: does the card get hot in the Z, when reading from it via the camera USB, or writing to it when multi exposing or videoing?
