Hi,

I have a laptop with a finicky SD card slot on it. I'm looking for alternatives for downloading the pictures from the camera. I don't really want to have to plug a USB cable between the camera and the computer so just wondering what else I can do.

I'm thinking I might look for a USB SD card adapter thing and might try that. Barring that, I've seen some things online that I can download images over WIfi. However, I haven't really found any instructions on how to do that.

I think I need some EOS software to make it work, but does anyone have any other details? I'd like to use the camera at whatever event I'm at and then go home and have it download the pictures of Wifi if that's how it works.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks!

Just get an external card reader.  Cheap, simple, faster than either downloading from a camera tethered to the laptop or wifi, and will work with any other computer.
