Why is the SD card import so slow?

DO make sure that you have upgraded to the latest firmware. It makes a BIG difference in transfer speed and battery usage.

The MPW should transfer at 10 to 15 MB/s at least. So if you had 33 GB of files;

33000 MB /(10 * 60) = 55 minutes

33000 MB /(15 * 60) = 37 minutes approximately

It sounds like you have an earlier firmware installed. Get the latest version 1.03.13.
