Do you have an "other" option?

I think its a matter of how quickly your older computer can process theinfo. Its only faster on the new model computers because they can process everything that much faster.


Downloading with my Nikon took forever using the USB. Downloading with my Canon's USB is lightening fast. Its so fast on the Canon that the card reader thingie is actually a lot slower because its attached to my computer and takes a few seconds to wake up from its sleep The card reader WAS faster with my Nikon. I think its all a matter of your computer speed, and the speed in which your camera downloads.
