omMany camera companies are lagging in the software department at a time when software is pivotal to photography. https://om.co/2023/08/28/why-camera-makers-will-be-dead/
lasersailor (he/him)@Onmyom Not a good situation as I consider which "real" camera to get that will replace my vintage Canon S70 - hey @gruber are you having similar issues with your new Ricoh GR3? cc'ing @Ronkjeffries
John Gruber@lasersailor @Onmyom @Ronkjeffries I've never even bothered trying Ricoh's methods for wirelessly transferring photos from the camera. I just shoot to SD, and put the SD card in my MacBook Pro.
@gruber @lasersailor @Ronkjeffries wait till your SD card reader on Mac doesn’t recognize the card. Come back then! 😂
@Onmyom @gruber @Ronkjeffries All too true Om...FWIW and YMMV I'm successfully using a SanDisk ImageMate PRO Reader that has CF and SD slots, with the supplied USB3 cable connected to an Anker USB-A to USB-C converter of unknown lineage into my M1 MacBook Air running 13.5.1 - lipstick on a pig for sure.
@Onmyom @lasersailor @Ronkjeffries When I read that in your post, it gave me the heebie jeebies, for sure.
@gruber @lasersailor @Ronkjeffries just make sure your SD cards are small and you are using sRGB color space :)
Penguin@Onmyom @gruber Reminds me of the old days of SmartMedia cards from my early digital cameras. Didn’t have built-in disk management so when card capacity changed camera & computer had to both be able to handle the change. Lost our Disney World photos in 2001 when Windows computer mangled our 128MB SmartMedia card it didn’t know how to read. Luckily data retrieval company in UK (of all places) got the photos back 🙂
