This article covers SmallRig 多機能カードリーダー(B) 4532。.

Overview

The SmallRig Multi-Function Card Reader (B) 4532 is a versatile triple-slot reader that supports CFexpress Type B, SD, and microSD cards simultaneously. With USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface delivering up to 1250MB/s transfer speeds, it handles large RAW files and 4K video footage with ease. A standout feature is the built-in AirTag slot, allowing you to track your memory cards via Apple's Find My network. Active cooling via an aluminum heatsink ensures sustained performance during heavy transfers. The smart card management system stores up to 4 SD, 2 microSD, and 3 CFexpress Type B cards with a status toggle to indicate empty/full slots.

Connectivity & Compatibility

The reader uses a USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface (USB-C) and is compatible with PCs, tablets, and smartphones that support USB-C. It supports CFexpress Type B, SD (SDHC/SDXC), and microSD (microSDHC/microSDXC) cards. It is backward compatible with USB 2.0/3.0, but full speed requires a USB 3.2 Gen 2 port. Ideal for cameras that use CFexpress Type B, such as high-end mirrorless and DSLR models.

Product Info

Released in late 2024, the SmallRig 4532 is priced around ¥28,000, positioning it as a mid-to-high-end multi-card reader for professionals. It comes with a USB-C cable and manual, and carries a standard one-year warranty. It is available primarily through Japan and select camera retailers. Its unique combination of AirTag tracking, high-speed transfer, and card storage sets it apart from conventional readers.

Best Use Cases

This reader is perfect for professional photographers and videographers who use CFexpress Type B cards and need fast, reliable offloading in the field. The AirTag slot adds peace of mind against card loss. It also suits users who juggle multiple card formats (SD, microSD) from drones, action cameras, and smartphones. For casual users who only need SD card reading, a simpler and cheaper reader may suffice.
