Cool thanks. My Canon blasts out ~4MB files but the thing is that I have an 8GB card... enough space for 1800 photos (only 7.2GB available space)... more than my 500-shot battery can do, so having anything up to ~10MB for a RAW image doesn't bother me whatsoever.

This is my assorted gear though I tend to leave one body at work during the week and cart the rest (sans the big lens).
Am I the only one to spot the Rizla in that picture?
go bwana!
Got a few more packs for christmas from the kids.Am I the only one to spot the Rizla in that picture?
go bwana!
those hard cases take up too much space.
I'm sure you used to be able to get papers without the adhesive on them but for the life of me I cant find them anywhere so its Rizla for now.Thats nice and considerate of them

I kind of like that white lens in the middle
My 70-200 f/4?
Yip... my parents are coming back on Saturday, then I will finally have it back

Oi! Leave me out of this...
Don't have a clue HOW I set mine up... but mine does that, almost....
It fires up lightroom and the import window pops up as soon as I plug in my camera (or any external drive with pictures on for that matter)

Are you running LR2 or LR3?
I'm not really sure yet that I want it to open Lightroom 3 and import. I'm looking for more of a quick, on the run, SD/CF card backup facility.

I knew I'd seen SOMETHING
The bolded one is prob the easiest
You could write an autorun.inf for the SD card, so that when you insert the SD card you can run a backup script from the autorun menu.
Or you could write a script in autohotkey to run in the background and detect when a drive is inserted, check if it's a particular one and run your backup script if it is. That is pretty advanced though - you'd probably want to ask for help in the autohotkey forums.

I have not used this, but from what I've heard, PhotoMechanic may be what you're looking for. Now if you hadn't gone and installed Windows, I could have given you some one-liner magic for it
Actually I ended up using window's own auto play function.I knew I'd seen SOMETHING

OSX wouldn't have worked. WIFI drivers.I have not used this, but from what I've heard, PhotoMechanic may be what you're looking for. Now if you hadn't gone and installed Windows, I could have given you some one-liner magic for it
windows query in linux thread seriously though, look at faststone for moving your images around under win.
On topic, I found gThumb to be really nice for viewing RAW images on my Samsung NC10 with Ubuntu.
@Bwana: that pic of yours is a *really* good idea - wish you'd shown it earlier. Am off to ETvl tomorrow and don't have time to calibrate now. [Thinks: hmmm, maybe I should take Spyder and ArgyllCMS with to ETvl.]
