    Any future for digital camera WiFi SD cards?


    A few years ago, there was hope for SD cards that could be used to transfer digicam images as they were taken to a smartphone app or a desktop computer.

    More recently, that hope has faded. Eyefi seems to have gone out of business, and the company that purchased them, which used the Keenai brand name, has shut down their online service and encouraged people to use Toshiba FlashAir, with no further support for Eyefi.

    So, what next? Will any company offer universally available WiFi SD cards for digital cameras, or can the concept be written off as a failed idea?

  2. NTFS format for SD cards for digital cameras

    Dear Microsoft

    Why would you make the only way that Windows 10 read a USB or SD card would be in NTFS format?

    Every company in the world makes their cards for the digital cameras in Fat or Fat 32. Now when I take pictures with my digital camera Windows 10 will not read the card.

    I have to:

    • Put the SD card into my Windows 7 machine
    • Copy all of the files to the the W7 machine
    • Format the SD card to NTFS
    • Copy all of the files to the SD card
    • Put the SD card into my Windows 10 machine.
    • Copy files to my W10 machine
    • Put the SD card back into my camera
    • Reformat it on the camera so that I can use it again.
    • Repeat steps 1-8 everytime I want to use the SD card in my digital camera.
    This is beyond frustrating.

    I just spent 20 hours with Microsoft online support to get learn this.

    The above process is only for SD cards. Now I will have to take all of my USB sticks - copy all of the info to my Windows 7 machine, reformat the USB drive to NTFS then recopy it back to the USB so that I can use it on my W10 Machine.

    What a complete waste of time and a total oversight on Microsoft's part.

    Fix this issue immediately please!!!

    IP Camera to suggest - for recording on local SD

    HI,
    I need a suggestion on an IP camera which can record a video stream directly on its local drive (SD card or some other card). I'm running a small business - a cafe and want to see what's happening inside when i'm out. Something like this online cam - http://www.viralcameras.com/0/posts...ates-online-camera-burlington-watch-cam-.html So i would be able to tilt it, to zoom it to see the recorded video afterwards.
    *68269-41118418dc995da43638494fd042370c.jpg*
    Also it would be a great if the camera would have a night vision and triggering record on motion detection.
    The preferable connection is wifi.
    The price is about up to 300$.
    Any suggestion is appreciated.
    Thank you.
