Which Eye-Fi card do you own?
I have the 2Gb Share Eye-Fi card and the iPhone App. My favorite feature is the automatic uploads.
Which feature do you think is most useful?
I’m a very lazy photographer, in that I take a fair amount of photos, but tend to leave them sitting on my memory cards forever. Finding the USB cable for my Nikon D40 and then importing them all into Lightroom or iPhoto just seems like such a chore. Its the same with the iPhone, since I use MobileMe to sync my contacts, I tend not to plug it in to my computer all that often, so my photos tend to just sit there, gathering digital dust.
What’s your Eye-Fi story?
A colleague introduced me to the Eye-Fi back in November, and after playing with it for a weekend I knew I had to have one. It really simplifies my workflow – I just put my camera back on its shelf and within a few minutes the photos appear on my computer. Its the perfect no-hassle solution and it also plays nice with other software which I am using. I have Eye-Fi tweet me when my photos are uploaded, and in conjunction with Mac OS X’s automator, I have them automatically imported into iPhoto. Its great!
If you could gift an Eye-Fi card, who would you give it to?
If I could give an Eye-Fi to anyone, it would probably be my parents – its the kind of thing which would make their lives a bit easier and hopefully mean that I see more pictures from them!
What’s the latest photo/video you Eye-Fi’d?
This is my latest Eye-Fi’d picture, taken with my iPhone using an app called Hipstamatic during a weekend in Charleston, SC.
