| Hello all. I use the full line of Canon 5D cameras…original, 2, 3 and 4. My most frequently used bodies are the 5DM3 which is 22.3 MP, the 5DM4 is 30.4 MP. While it’s a nice difference in megapixels it isn’t ginormous, but downloading images from the 5DM4 to my computer (using firewire 800 on a Mac Pro running High Sierra with 32 gigs of RAM) takes ages. I’m using Lexar Pro compact flash cards (UDMA 7, 800x). My hard drive has over a terrabyte of available space on it. Is this slow process of downloading normal when using these larger megapixel cameras? Is there a link in my system that can be changed to speed file transfers up? Thanks for any insight you can offer, Lea |
