Sneaker Report post Posted June 25, 2015 I'm trying to find a quick way to review my pictures in the field to see if the camera is at a spot worth leaving or not. What do you use? I thought maybe a cheap tablet that has an SD card slot built in could do the trick, but not sure since cheap tablets only have like 8gb of onboard memory anyway, would they even open and process pictures for viewing if they were on a 16bg sd card? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GJMauro12 Report post Posted June 25, 2015 ^same here. I'll use my Nikon coolpix to check the angle when I set it up and then I will usually swap the card when I check it but I'll bring the coolpix to look at the pictures before walking out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rcdinaz Report post Posted June 25, 2015 You can use an iPad or phone with an adaptor like you mentioned. I end up taking my laptop in my pack now since it is just way easier. I can move all the files and erase the card all at once so it just make things easier. You could buy a $200 laptop and use it just for your hunting stuff, DVD drive wold give you movies as well. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Str8Shot Report post Posted June 25, 2015 If you use and android phone and do not want to switch out SD cards all the Time ... this is a good solution - 500GB portable drive that transfers all your photos in minutes and allows you to hook to your android smart phone to view.. at home it hooks to PC as an external Hard Drive so you can transfer all and/or delete the pics you do not care for ... lots of benefits to doing it this way IMO http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1077915-REG/digital_foci_p31_500_photo_safe_ii_on.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
