Combines 2GB storage with WiFi on a standard SD Card
Load onto your PC or Mac
Or any of a dozen photo sharing sites
Works in any camera
Reasonably priced
Very easy to use with browserbased interface
So. Easy. To use. Plus
It actually does what it says it does.
Upload photos to your computer wirelessly
Uploads to photo sites and your Mac almost magically. Wide range of support for popular sites. Works with nearly every SD camera.
Simple setup
Adds wireless and geotagging capability to any SD camera
One free year of public Wi-Fi service
Easy to set up
Very easy setup
No usage limitations
Easy to set up and use. Wirelessly transmits photos from camera to PC and to photo-sharing sites. Automatically geotags your photos. Is compatible with Wi-Fi hot spots. Fully Mac compatible.
Quick
Compatible with any camera that has an SD slot
Works with Macs and PCs
Easy to set up. Eliminates the need to transfer photos from camera to computer via cable.
Automatically uploads photos to Web and computer via WiFi. Default setting marks photos as private on privacyenabled services like Flickr and Vox. Surprisingly thrifty (although noticeable) power consumption. Includes USB card reader
Automaticallyconfigures security
Compatible with lots of web photo sharing sites
2GB of storage ain't shabby either.
Open accesspoint support makes the Explore a kickass
Musthave card.
Email and SMS notification
Welldesigned
Simple software
The editors didn't like
Does not keep camera awake automatically for upload
No local upload history in software yet
SD cards notoriously easy to lose
It can be a drain on your cameras battery.
Cannot use at public hotspots
Only supports JPEG files (and not videos). No inuse status feedback. Can’t use adhoc mode. Doesn’t send images to FTP
Email
Or .Mac. Can’t be configured with a manual IP address.
Limited signal strength
Options
And appeal
Users must be within 90 feet of a hotspot to geotag photos
Some partner sharing sites have flawed geotagging capabilities
Public uploading unreliable
2GB limit
Slow transfer speed
Short wireless range
Somewhat expensive. Geotagging results arent always spot-on. Hot-spot access is free for only one year.
Doesn’t work over public Wi-Fi
Much slower than a USB transfer
Not all photo-sharing sites allow you to adjust privacy settings through Eye-Fi Manager
Pricey compared to other 2GB SD cards.
Autolaunching software and uploads to computer are annoying
If killable. Not compatible with several common browsers. No automatic connection to open WiFi networks means you still have to lug your laptop around like some sort of gruesome Neanderthal
Abstract: It wasn’t too long ago that I was taking a look at the first Eye-Fi card: a 2GB Wi-Fi-enabled SD card that uploads pictures to configured computers and photo-sharing websites. I concluded that the Eye-Fi was a 9 out of 10. Since then, Eye-Fi has differ...

Slow transfer speed, short wireless range The Final Word That you must place your camera and the Eye-Fi card close to your router, and keep your camera on to allow time for transfers over a slow connection, somewhat limits the Eye-Fi Cards appeal to me.

Abstract: Skiftet fra analog film til digitale billeder har for de fleste af os ført til, at vi nu tager mange flere billeder. Men selvom de digitale billeder ikke længere skal fremkaldes, så skal de stadig over på computeren, enten med et kabel eller ved at sæt...
