If I then take it out and put it in my Canon SD500 (native SD) it starts transmiting. I have powerdown set to 10mins, it must have something to do with the available power to the card to run the wifi???? Harris :-( Hi guys,

It's probably not getting power. Can you switch it over to preview or something? Joe, I haven’t used an A100, but on the D200, I have to set the meter timeout to give the card power.

EYEfi works in SD camera SD to CF adapter works with regular SD cars. SD to CF adapter records on EyeFI card but doesnt transmit shooting jpg like i am supposed to and tried multiple megapixels Any Help. I have a Sony A100 Please help, I removed the cf metal from both the front and back , so its just the card and the eye-fi. and I was 1 ft away from my router so range isnt a problem.

Of course I am a bit biased about this product!

At Beta, we recommended it, because we knew that it will help our range. It may still help, with the production card, but the CF adapter doesn’t look that great with the front logo/label plate removed. So since the production cards have improved RF range, you may want to first leave the front plate on, and experiment with the range. If you’re happy with it, just leave it on. It’s mostly cosmetic, but I personally feel that the adapter looks better with the label plate still there. If you want to increase your range, just get a good router, like the Belkin N1 Vision http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=377018 Check out http://www.photojojo.com for some good write-ups on the adapter, increasing your range, and using the Eye-Fi Card w/o having web connectivity. :-) Good luck — Ziv.
