I posted a few weeks ago re: this issue.

My experience, after 10 days out of the US, is that the New Q device works well to backup photos to a light solid state USB drive.

It also allows one to create a Wi-Fi network between the New Q device and an iPad (or similar I presume). This was my other goal, to review photos on a larger than a camera screen. That worked pretty well also if a JPEG.

I had no time nor interest in editing at nite.

Happy not to have to deal with a laptop. Internet not required. Pretty inexpensive. Light. Simple. Can be used as a battery to charge other devices.

Does other stuff too that I did not need nor explore.

Just my 2c based on my experience.

Howdy!,
I replied when you originally posted, I found my original Kingston MobileLite G2 wireless media router sitting on my desk the next day. I bought it from Newegg about 9 years ago and it still holds a good charge and works fine.

If I were to replace it, I believe I might try one of the newer iDiskk Mfi Certified sold on Amazon, either in 1 or 2TB units, prices on 8/26/23 are $115 for 1gb unit which says it's sold sold abut 1400, and $126 for the 2 gb unit, sold about 60 of those. Both units are verified user rating of 4 stars.

Not hawking Amazon or iDisk but the specs appear good, and after 23 years of ordering from them, with only a couple exceptions (from reps having a bad day, and everyone has them occasionally), AMZ has always treated us exceptionally well. If you have a Prime or Prime Business account, you might want to try one of the iDish units and post again, and if you don't care for it, Amazon gives free returns within 30 days. Darned nice that large capacity memory has finally come down after so many years, now that the industry has advanced several gens. Hope the info is useful, cheers.

If you send valuable time culling JPEGs, you'll find that time wasted when you get home and still have full roster of unculled RAW files.


There is good and valid reasons why some shoot JPEG’s, or RAW & JPEG.

Pop in 2 new cards every morning, maybe of 32GB size and then worry about it after your trip!
