Waiting is the worst. Waiting for your media card to read/write after shooting off a burst of shots, or waiting for your media card to load into your computer after, so you can edit.

When Lexar introduced the Workflow Tower last year, I took it to SXSW for a real world review.

Have you ever had to move a large batch of files from one computer to another? Not quite “hard drive” large, but maybe a set of images you’ve been working on and need to change workstations? Or perhaps your portfolio looks great on that screen, if they could only get a solid wi-fi signal. We’ve […]

These tiny little nuggets of data storage, that keep dropping in price, must be tough to make, right? You betcha! The folks over at Lexar clued us into the video on the making of their chips for media cards and flash drives. Although I feel like I should be wearing a cardigan, and welcoming you […]

Ahhh, nothing like saving all of that money on film, not to mention the processing. And all of the DSLRs have such huge file sizes that your photographs can go poster size, no problem. Using those media cards again and again, has saved you untold thousands,right? May have even changed how you shoot. Those cards […]

Well, whenever I travel, as in fly, I have to pack tight, light and right. The gear that goes has to be rugged, have a purpose and many times, have some back-up. On this last trip, since stills are always a part of the deal, and video gets packed in there too, a hybrid pack […]
