The Eye-Fi is an SDHC Card with Wi-Fi capability allows you to transfer photos wirelessly from a digital camera to your computer and to one of several online sharing sites.

Wireless uploading is a capability that has been slow to catch on with digital cameras, perhaps because the models that have offered it haven’t been otherwise compelling, or because getting a wireless connection to work is often a hassle. But the Eye-Fi Card addresses both of those issues.

The Wi-Fi-enabled Eye-Fi SD card works with almost any camera that uses that memory-card format, makes the wireless setup very simple, and imposes fewer limitations than some of the cameras with built-in Wi-Fi that we’ve seen in the past.

The Eye-Fi Card has built in memory and comes with a small USB memory card reader. To set up a wireless connection, you insert the card in the reader, wait for it to be recognised by your PC, and, in the auto-play dialog that pops up, click an option to install the software.

You then use a web interface to set up a wireless connection, choose a location on your PC to upload photos to, and select from a list of 20+ online photo-sharing or photo-blogging sites to use. (You can have the Eye-Fi upload to your PC, a sharing site, or both.)

Those sites include most of the big-name ones – Shutterfly, Facebook, Flickr, and TypePad, among others. You can set uploaded photos to appear in folders based on the photos’ creation date or by upload date.

If the PC you’re using already has a wireless connection set up, its software can find your encryption key and enter it automatically.

One great thing about the Eye-Fi is that you can upload any size and resolution of image that you want to these services. So what are you waiting for? we picked the two best cards from the Eye-Fi range and hold UK stock so lets get uploading!

It lets me quickly upload files in the background while I continue my photo shoots. My clients can choose their best shots in near real time.
