It is, but I want to do it.

Eye-Fi Pro Cards allow wireless transfer and upload of images and videos.

I shoot a lot of photos and videos every month so I'm always on the lookout for tools that will help me with my workflow to get out the video reviews shot and posted. I'm also thinking about a more suitable view for my unboxing and first look videos and decided that a combination of Point of View along with a secondary angle is the best way to go.

I have been using Eye-Fi Wireless SD Cards to get the photos and videos automatically transferred online (as backup). The main limitation is that I have limited control over what it does, and that the Eye-Fi does not help me during the shoot (other than some sort of estimated geo-tagging). For me its use is more about sharing, transferring images/video after the shoot. Eye-Fi does not help me start, stop, press shutter button, focus, etc. but it was never meant to.

So to handle the POV section I plan to have a Canon EOS Rebel T5i on a boompole from up top so I need a remote solution to frame and focus while I'm doing my thing. Sure, the articulated screen definitely helps, but an iPad or laptop screen with control would be better. Yes, I can tether, but a portable iPad would be so much easier! So I think I've found some reasonable ways to do this.

I'm looking at two different solutions:

Both appear to retail for $300. The HyperDrive iUSB port looks to be more flexible with the ability to run through the browser in addition to iOS, Android, Mac and PC. Unfortunately, there is hardly any in-depth information about it.

The CamRanger on the other hand seems to market their product a lot better. They even have reviews on their site - imagine that!

Don't get me wrong. I think Hyperdrive / Sanho is a fantastic company, and they some very good products. Some of which I bought and reviewed. But I'm going to get the CamRanger first and see about getting a HyperDrive iUSB PortCamera loaned to me for review.

Check back in my Digital Photography Review section in a few weeks for an update and review. I hope to get a HyperDrive iUSB PortCamera comparison as well then.
