p.1 #1 · Anyone us EyeFi SD in a 1 series?


The Eye Fi SD card looks to be an interesting idea for a "tethered" solution to get images on a computer for quick client review.

Anyone tried it yet?

Thanks for posting an update on this. I was mildly interested, but not if it's slow.

I read that the speed depends on the speed of your wifi connection?



Also a question about this:

If you shoot in RAW + JPG will it still transfer the JPGs?

A guy I know has a Eye-Fi card for his 20D and he has been getting some pretty poor results from his. As he shot basketball T&Is, I watched his setup in action and here is what I gathered:

He was shooting a 20D with Eye-Fi card, had a D-Link router (not sure what its specs were, but it was small without external antennas), was running Picasa 2 on his laptop, and had a monitor for customers. There was about 6' between the camera and the router, and 6' between router and laptop. I don't know if the router was physically connected to the laptop. When he would shoot a picture, the file would not appear on the laptop for up to 10 seconds. He and his wife both said that connectivity is spontaneous, that you may get an immediate transfer sometimes, while other times you may wait for a minute or longer before they transfer. His theory was that because the card was in a SD to CF adapter, and because of all the metal in the camera body, he couldn't get connected very well.
