Reader feedback: on-the-road without a laptop
Update: readers responded (thank you!). It seems that one good choice is the Sanho Hyperdrive.
A friend is heading to Australia for a month. Maybe he’ll shoot 100GB of images. He doesn’t want to carry a laptop, not even a 3lb MacBook Air, but it would be very desirable to be able to backup the images. He’s also not shooting a dual-slot camera like the D3/D3x, which via dual card slots can make on-the-fly backups.
He won’t be erasing any of his CF cards; he’ll just take ten 16GB cards or whatever he feels is adequate. Only upon return when downloaded and backed-up will he erase the cards.
So the question is what’s the best way to download the cards, burn them to DVD, etc as a means of backing up.
Reader suggestions welcome, please contact me with your ideas.
