So, the Eyefi was good for studio work, however I still wanted something that I could use for daily use (transferring to my phone), that’s why I got the next one…
Eye fi vs flashair software#
I prefer the system of using the software to view the files and selecting which ones to transfer from there. I decided NOT to use it in camera because I didn’t want all my photos going to the phone (and I didn’t want to use the system of “protecting” the files to transfer them. Once it connects and starts transferring it’s pretty fast. It can take some time to connect and start transfers and sometimes it fails and just stops transferring. I found this card fine for studio shooting where I can have a lot of batteries to deal with the battery drain and when I want all my photos to auto transfer. You can’t view the contents of the card and select what you want to transferĭrains batteries very fast as it’s constantly trying to send your photos to your phone (you can turn this off, but it makes it troublesome) I think this system isn’t good, I’d rather use the software to transfer the ones I want or have them go across automatically if I choose.Īuto connects to wifi hotspot (starts working as soon as you take a photo)Ĭlosest to plug and play you can get (so long as you want the features it gives) You either have to have all the photos transfer automatically OR you have to select which ones by “protecting” them in camera.If you want this feature it’s good, if not, it’s quite annoying. It tries to transfer ALL the photos on your phone to the Eyefi system (this can be turned off), this is so it can back it up online.Overall I’d say this has the most powerful and easy software, however it does some things I wish it wouldn’t.
Eye fi vs flashair mac#
I could transfer my photos to my phone and it would work on a Mac as well as Windows PC. I got this card because it seemed like the best overall solution. You get your membership card and a handy card reader for the price you pay (good at what it does, but does it try and do too much?)
So I decided to buy the next one on my list… So, the ezShare wasn’t good enough for me because I didn’t want to damage my card slot also, I actually want to be able to transfer to MAC and not just PC. You can’t use Data WiFi or Mobile Data when connected to the card Made to poor tolerances (MAJOR flaw for me) Card is a bit too big and the slot for the micro-SD card is a tad too small for some card slots.
Eye fi vs flashair Pc#
Transfers well to PC once it’s set up properlyĪllows you to view card content and selectively transfer photos to your phoneĭoesn’t auto connect (if your camera turns off you have to manually connect to the WiFi hotspot again). Useful for using up any spare micro SD cards Cheap card with poor tolerances, that was enough for me to put it in a little box and forget about it. It’s not wrong by a lot, but it would jam in my X-Pro2 and would potentially damage the card slot. The actual physical shape of the card is just… wrong. HOWEVER… and I can’t “however” hard enough. It worked with a bit of playing about… however… I managed to get over the crappy looking software (looks like it’s a student project or beta release open source that someone played with) and I liked how it would allow me to view the card and pick what I wanted to transfer. It transferred reliably once set up (so long as you didn’t turn off your camera). It was a bit difficult to set up, but I did get it to work after a bit. I ALMOST used this card despite it’s flaws. The EZshare card is a Chinese brand card that takes micro-SD, they also make a “normal” SD card version. Mine is the cheapest micro-SD card adapter
