| I'm considering buying an Eye-fi card, and wonder if any of you have had experience with it. Are you happy with it? And I particularly want to know if it alters the files when it transfers them wirelessly to the computer. Will they qualify as originals if an entry has to be validated? |

That's an interesting question though according to this chart the 400D doesn't support Eye-Fi. At least it's not included in the list.

| Good point about compatibility. I have other cameras, but I would like to get it for the 400D. I'll check into that further. |

I know someone was successfully using one of those cards with a CF adapter in a canon body but cant remember who. There were a couple threads on it a while back...

General info and timings discussed in this thread.
As for altering files... Raw formats, no. Jpg formats, yes, if you use geotagging -- it will add/modify EXIF data for geotagging info -- I cannot speak for dpc validation of those jpgs -- would be worth asking SC, but my guy would say not valid, since EXIF was modified. You can turn geotagging off, though.
CF options are always a hot topic over on the eyefi forums... The official position from EyeFi is they are not supported, and an official CF-card is coming out "really soon" (where "really soon" has been a moving target for over a year now...) Just sayin'.
Canon 400D results discussed in this eyefi forums thread. Sounds like results are mixed.

| Thanks for all that info. I searched the forums before I opened this thread, and couldn't find anything. Guess I'm not much good at searching. :/ Anyway, my questions are answered. Thanks again. |
