Maybe I did not explain myself. The card only shows to be corrupt when I try to use it with the adapter on the phone. The card is fine with the camera and computer. I don't want to take the computer with me. Thanks for the link.


Why don't you just take enough cards to cover your trip needs. Keep them in a protective holder and you can just download them to your computer when you get home. Always works for me.

I am NOT sure how this would help you - if the camera is reporting the SD card as corrupt.
Again - I'd recommend formatting the card in the camera, then upload your days images to your cloud account.
If you're happy with the cloud results - then reformat the card in camera for the next days shoot.
Upload, reformat, repeat.


Buy a WD portable memory drive. Have been using them for years. After I shot an sporting event
I would find a corner and download all my cards through my laptop onto the memory drive.
and a copy on my computer.

Not a good solution. Thank you for the contribution

You can buy a used Hyperdrive made by Sanho. You put the SD card in the slot on the Hyperdrive and the images are transferred to the Hyperdrive. They remain there until you transfer them to a computer. Google ColorSpace UDMA2.

You can buy a GnarBox2 SSD new that will do mostly the same thing.

These devices and other similar devices come with hard drives of varying sizes. If you go this route, make sure the device and your SD cards are 100% compatible. These are costly. You may be able to rent one from LensRentals.com or some other place if you do not want to buy it.

Cuban photo,

I have owned the hyperdrive unit and I can offer you two pieces of information

First, the hyperdrive unit itself is no longer made by the company and it is not offered for sale on their website. Now, I do not know if they still support the unit that is something you would have to research, contact them and ask him that information.

The second is, recently been made to units. One is umda2 and the other was umda3..

Be careful and make sure you do not buy the first because it will not support the most recent, and modern card formats.

I ran into that problem myself and you and will not support the cards I use in my Canon Mark IV or my Canon EOS R5.

Cheers

There are a couple of solutions of a small stand alone piece of hardware (stand alone SSD) that will do just what you want, including being able to transfer via wi-if to the cloud. Has a normal SD slot for the transfer from the card.

If you keep the cards (which I would recommend as another level of backup), then you have those, the SSD, and the pictures on the cloud, and can sleep easily each day of your trip

Suggest you search the archives here for “backup traveling”. And, some of the fine folks here with better memories than I will undoubtedly chime in.

Have fun

I use a device called the RavPower Filehub. You can get more information here.

I also have Ravpower FileHub. Works very well. Small. And at $40 a good deal.

This is the ravpower and disk
No computer involved until I get home and attach disk to computer.
I successfully connected the drive to my phone to verify that files were transferred to the hub.

I use a laptop and a external hard drive. I put my pictures on both for storage. I want two files, seperate, of all my pictures. I learned the hard way when I lost storage with out a back up.

I can put a Micro SD card directly into my Samsung phone. You can eject the sim card tray with a paper clip and that's where the memory card goes. If your SD cards are that type, maybe you can give that a shot instead of using an adaptor.

Personally I bring my Surface computer on vacation. I like being able to review the days shots on a large screen after backing up the files. I also bring an HDMI cable to hook to the big screens in the hotel to watch a slideshow (as well as streaming stuff). Uploading to the cloud while on the road would be way too time consuming for me as I use a 5Ds 50 MP and also shoot a lot of video with my Rp.
