we are dog sitting again....
Bit of help needed, please.
I use an intervalometer on my Nikon for self takes and normally fire off 10 shots at a time five of each side. Just to be sure, before I return the carp, I check the camera for framing, exposure and focus. While these are generally OK, I would ideally like to send the pix to my laptop so I can check each pic as it is taken.
At present I can send the pix directly to the laptop and to the DCIM>100 folder but only as a thumbnail.
Is there a way that I can get the pic to open as a full file screen image on the laptop as soon as the shot is taken? In this way I can check everything without putting the fish down or going back to the camera to check everything is OK.
I know there is an app for modern phones, ipads etc, but I am still stuck in the dark ages; the laptop is as modern as I get!

How are you sending it at the moment?
Not something I use but you could shoot tethered to Lightroom or use a wifi enabled SD card such as the Toshiba FlashAir or Eye-Fi Mobi. Both methods should give you the full res pics on your laptop.

Just had a quick Google and still none the wiser. Is it still the D70? Are you Mac or Windows?
Check the USB settings and whether your software fully supports the D70, if not I'm sure Aperture does, Nikon Capture will definitely work and there are probably loads of Windows programs about for a few quid. Try the Nikon service people , they are excellent.

I went for the eye fi mobi card, just so that I can look at pics from the slr on my phone or, pad when at home, or whilst on the bank etc, and be able to put the camera away out of harms reach. And perhaps send a pic or two of my most recent captures.
Photos transfer seamlessly, but although classed as a 10 sd card it is slow, and defiantly will affect burst mode.
Another negative is that it doesn't support my canon,s video format of pal or nrtl.
So I won't be getting shot of my ipad card reader just yet.
@ Jon I normally just select medium,

Hi guys I am after some camera lens advice. I am looking to purchase a canon 50mm 1.8. The camera I am using is 650d. I know it won't be true 50mm as it's a crop body sensor it will be 80mm. Any one used this or give me advice on what lens is best. Thanks in advance.

I had this lense with the 650d, and for fishing self takes, if you have the space it really is a steal,
F,1.8- 2.2 Blurry background shots F,3-5 pretty sharp

Was this good at night? As I know you have to stand a fair way back. I do have an external flash a yongnuo 565 do you think this will give me enough power?

Be fine, if you already have a kit lense may be worth setting to 50mm and try some test pics.
