Q: external memory card reader?

I need advice on the best external memory card reader. I have a MacBook Air running OS X Lion (10.8.5) with 8GB SDRAM, and need to dowload images from my camera. 

 

Thanks in advance for your recommendations.

MacBook Air, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

    You've probably already checked but recent (at least) MacBook Airs have a built in card slot. More info: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3553

     

    And with apologies for doing everything but answering the question directly (I don't have any recommendations), and suspecting you also may already know the following -- but just in case: with most cameras you can just directly connect the camera to a usb port on any computer to download photos without need for a separate reader and without need for removing the card from the camera.
