I hope this is the right thing to do here, but it says post images, This was my first attempt at a HDR Photo, I thought I would take it of the Sunset over the East African Port, Stone Town in Zanzibar...

It was taken on my Canon 7D, 24-105mm L IS.

Why do you need this?  I thought it was cool and got it for my 5D III, and it gave me "error 80"s about 1 out every 50 shots.

But again, why?

There are plenty of valid reasons to want a wireless download or a transfer to a tablet or to the internet immediately after a image is taken.  Sometimes there is a person  miles away waiting for your image.  The eye-fi card is a budget way to do this, it just isn't working on a 7D.

The reason I want it is I would like to be able to monitor photos remotely, I take allot of photos of White Water Kayaking and Rafting, one one of the more impressive rapids where I live, there is a Wire going across. I am hoping to make a pulley system to lower my 7D Down, so I can get some better shots of the river, this has been done before by someone I know, BUT he found it very hard to get the camera in the right location, and with a eye-fi card I was hoping I would be able to see the pictures after they had been taken, and make adjustments where needed.

This is an example of a photo that has been taken before, this was taken after hundreds of attempts and allot of moving, pulling up and down etc. I would like to be able to do this quickly with out to much effort.


I would like to point out, that is unfortunately not my photo, and am not taking credit for it at all.

Hey Guys,

I am sure that this has already been asked about probally 200x, but am new here, not seen it before so thought I would ask anyway.

Has any one got any experience with a Eye-Fi Card and a CF-SDHC Converter, anyone managed to get it working? THey say its not supported on the Eye-Fi Website, I wondered if any one had any experience with it? is it worth it?

Many Thanks
Rich
