I could probably extend the range with what I've got or even set up another network with a more powerful router (my spare) or even an ad-hoc connection, but it's not really that important at present because the photos load when I go back into the house anyway. Maybe later I might try some remote triggered bird photography and would be away from the camera and would want the photos transmitted back to check that I'm getting what I want.

The outline looks sharp Mike, but it also looks like you've drawn round it with "White Indian Ink" Nice colours

Nice one Howard.... the lens is capable of a lot better than what you have done so far Pigeons never look very sharp anyway.

Was his name Alfred Hitchcock

Well done with the Youtube hits

If you search the US Pentax forum there's a lot of positive stuff about Eye-Fi and no negative. Even some posts from Eye-Fi reps. themselves.

I often use mine in the garden and it usually transmits OK or it starts transmitting as soon as I walk into range. I could move my broadband router outside to increase the range if I wanted.

The only thing you have to watch is don't go off somewhere and take say 500 shots, because it starts transmitting back to the PC as soon as you come within range. I only use the Eye-Fi card when I want to transmit immediately.

Concerning the geo-tagging you could take a photo with a mobile phone that geo-tags and then copy the info to the Pentax photos.

I'd be more interested in geo-tagging if they used the UK National Grid Co-Ordinates for this country only. Too much trouble to have to convert everything.

Nicholas in London were originally just like an old fashioned jewellers in the mid 70's you sat down at a table and they brought out what you wanted to look at. I don't think they are anything like that now.

I've used an Eye-Fi in a K20D for over a year without any problems.
Prior to that a K10D and *istDS. I've not tried it in the K-5 yet, but it should be OK.

They can't say it's fully compatible if the camera won't let you mark favourites etc. to send straight to the likes of Flickr.

There's also a Geo-tagging card that uses Wi-Fi hotspots.

Mines just the basic card for sending Jpegs to my PC. Handy for doing white balance,focus and DOF tests as well as getting the exposure spot on.

I wouldn't want to have to pay for the cost of geo-tagging (which I would never use) when I buy a new camera. If you can't remember where you took the photos, there's little point in doing photography. Photographs are memories

You can get a Eye-Fi card that transmits back to your laptop.

Was it Woody Allen who said something like.... I can't believe how childish my girlfriend is..... She punctures my rubber ducks in the bath!

Excellent, nice to see that it's sharp wide open and no focus shift on stopping down
