I'd use a flash drive. Fewer and fewer people have a CD/DVD drive.


I am leaning towards the flash drive as it seems to be the easiest without any opening issues for the client.

As much as I love and use Dropbox for files up to 2GB, it is not convenient for large video files or large collections of still images. A lot of my work is way over a GB because it's a blend of video, audio, stills, PDF, and JPEGs.

A CD is good for 750 MB. A DVD is good for 4.7 GB. A flash drive can be any size from 1GB to 256GB.

While I still have a CD/DVD burner (Apple SuperDrive), I hardly ever use it. Most people want the files on a flash drive. Modern computers do not come with optical drives in them.

I have run into the occasional user who cannot read an ExFAT formatted flash drive in their devices. However, video files larger than 4GB MUST go on an ExFAT formatted flash drive. That's when external hard drives come in handy...

burkphoto,
So far I've not had this happen but something I have to take into consideration as well.

You can by 5x16Gb USB thumb drives for around $27.00 on Amazon, or 10x2Gb for $38.55. I've found this a good way to provide to those I do photography for. The cost of the 2Gb drive, at less than $4.00, is a moderately inexpensive way to provide your client with the images... (just my opinion!!! :-)


Michael1079, I am finding that seems to be an average price. Thank you!!

Hi Chris.. I have my clients come to my studio so that they can assist me on the editing, cropping, then I just burn it to a disc...saves me a trip to the post office and CD's are cheap..... ( and get paid)....


canon Lee, interesting idea, but what about any editing? eg blemishes, fly away hair etc?

So? The OP specifically stated "From the OP "I will not be using any type of download or Dropbox, only a tangible storage."

Your response is as nonsensical as your original post that I commented on. There is NOTHING about delivering 14 pictures on a thumb drive that will cause someone to miss out on a stock deal. Further, it's silly to buy stock when it's at a five year high, and any person really interested in buying/selling a specific stock will be paying close attention to the trading price by the minute.

kd7eir, Thank you for keeping us on topic. :) I was looking for the easiest tangible form to give to the client.

Flash drive. It’s 2018, not 1998.


burkphoto,
You are correct!! I was going to use what I still had on hand since the number of pictures were small. Thanks for the input :)

When I was still working I had our all of our proposals, including prints, put on a thumbdrive. The case was imprinted with our logo , name and numbers. When we delivered the written documents we gave them 2. Great advertising, great way to tell a client a story and the small investment of time tells them you are professional and care.

Daddybear,
Thank you for the great suggestion of having a logo imprinted on the thumb drive! Do you recall where you had them made?

CPR and WayneT, Thank you for the suggestions of thumb drives. I will look into finding some with a smaller amount of storage.
