I dropped a Bronica once!...... the vicar wasn't happy
because it was during a wedding service

I was given a Red Card

£80 is about the lowest price for one of these superb lenses.
It's sad to see them going for so little considering how good
they are and how much they cost originally.

Easily a match for most primes in the range 24-50mm, the only
problem with all these MF lenses is focusing properly. Between
24mm and 35mm they should be OK for most purposes set to f/8
and infinity.

Always try to use a fully charged battery. The transfer
speed slows down when the battery approaches about 3/4 full.

I don't think an awful lot of power is used on the transfer
because the cards work with low powered point and
shoot cameras as well.

When I start up the other PC it still finds the card and
flashes up a warning saying the the card is set to upload
to my laptop and do I want to leave it like that or change
it to this PC..... so it must store that info on the
card itself.

What I need to find out now is if I change PC's does
it upload all the files again to the 2nd PC or have
they been flagged as uploaded. I can't test that at
present, because I've deleted all the files off the
card.

The vernier calipers will work, so will an old pair of normal non
vernier calipers or a set of dividers.

I've filed down one of the adjustable wrenches they use for removing
wrist watch backs. It's adjustable and used to be given away free with
trade packs of batteries, so it didn't cost anything

For a TC you could probably grind down an old piece of
scrap metal.

That's a superb shot

You should put things like plasterboard on a roof rack Gwyn Just like this! link

There was someone on here that was very interested in
these. Can't remember the name and I'm not sure if he
actually owned one?

Sounds like you don't!

Just to give you a better idea of what your paying for
here's one and the reader taken apart link

Looks like the operating system is run on the Atheros chip
which has an integrated RISC processor with 512KB of flash
memory. There's also the equivalent of a USB WiFi dongle
in there

There's also a free Imagewatcher program on that site,
which I haven't used and it's a few years old.

You can buy the 4GB version on ebay for £36.48 Post Free
link
The 8GB version isn't needed because the shots are
transferred to the PC as they are taken.

The Eye-Fi was meant for Amateur use.... they haven't
brought out a Compact Flash version which most Pro
cameras use.

For Pro use people like Canon offer alternatives at
$1,200 link

I can't understand why people will pay big money for cameras and lenses and then complain about paying for innovative products.

The software alone is worth £50 it integrates well with the Eye-Fi website, Flickr etc. and will keep itself updated and also update the firmware on the card. It also handles GEO tagging.

The hardware supplied includes an SDHC card into which they have built a computer, plus a special USB reader.

They have also tested the card with just about every camera ever made

You remind me of the people who used to buy expensive cameras and then complain about D&P costs

How are things at the Flat Earth Society anyway?
