    Why are chargers so lame?

    Thanks. It is very confusing because there are 3 similar ~10AH devices listed on the various sites. The 10050+ is not on the Anker site, but I'll give it a shot next week. From what I understand there is no issue with such devices in the checked baggage during most international air travel.

    Why are chargers so lame?

    I could use a huge charger at home, but not for travel. Typically I use one of these or another similar product for charging USB and having an AC outlet for other devices.

    Why are chargers so lame?

    Which of their USB batteries do you prefer? I am annoyed that many of them do not allow charging and pass through power to the USB output. Some also have low output power or are rather large and heavy, so are not good for air travel.

    Best movie you've seen

    I saw it at 11km last year. There was definitely some level of nonsense involved. The film was boring enough. I can't image 10+ hours of that. It's only one guy. Matt Daemon is not the quality of actor that Tom Hanks was in the cast off film if one can draw any parallel.

    Pine A64 platform, starting at 15$

    I assumed they were used for student projects and some custom low power applications, not particularly for the low cost.

    The economics are probably not reasonable to build extra infrastructure. It's not like such storms are commonplace. It would be better to take a nice vacation for a week or so. :)

    It appears that 92 images are missing, based on the file numbering. I was able to recover 14 hidden files. Is there a smart test or something like that for CF cards? The basic tests don't find anything wrong with it.

    Is there any quick way to process the 50MP raw files without using Adobe? If I'm doing the math right there would be about 8TB of 16bit TIFF files.

    I don't know the Ole but he's not an independent engineer. My point is that we need to see the RAW files to make a proper determination. Sensors are already over 50% efficient so there is only a finite amount of improvement possible.

    Wildlife is almost entirely RAW, though many photographers use jpegs for reportage and volume commercial work. Reuters or others only accepts jpegs for example.

    It would be great if the new Nikon bodies have 1/2 or 1 stop better noise than their predecessors. The jpeg settings of 1.5 or 3 million ISO are a bit ridiculous.

    Even the 1DX, D4 etc. Have lower buffer throughput witg two cards. Raw and jpeg are worse on any camera. 5DsR is on the slow side due to the 65-70 MB files. Im I'm almost out of memory cards.

    It's too slow with the Canon bodies. What do people use for attempting file recovery these days? The mfg. Software is usually mediocre.

    A memory card crapped out while i was on a cliff with those albatross. The camera slowed down around frame 507 and then error 02. I was only able to DL 340 files. Not sure if the others can be recovered or if they did not save.

    A Nexto ND2901 with a 2TB Same sung 850 Pro downloaded 701GB of cards on one charge! That SSD sure is power efficient compared to the tlc and several other SSDs I've tested. It also did not throttle as the battery discharged.

    I seems that automatic switching is more trouble than it is worth. I need to improve the internet and still have some options for reliable service at equal or lesser cost. Right now the internet is just becoming too slow for practical purposes. :(
