[QUOTE="Mediaman09, post: 68304, member: 9503"] I missed the part about the gift ! Ya, likely one of the first things I would look for as well given so much is wi-fi these days and uploading photos is a common task. In the absence of built in native wi-fi: [LIST] [*]Workaround A is the eye-fi card - its interesting but I dont think they make a high speed high capacaity version, so it didnt work out for me. [*]Workaround B is eye-fi in the second slot - but only on cameras like the D7000 have it [*]Workaround C is the wu-1a adaptor, but its for the 3200 only. Even if it worked on the 5100, is not seamless. I would hate carrying around that little adaptor. May as well just plug in a cable if I need to plug in an adaptor! [*]Workaround D - use a cable [*]Workaround E - remove the card and use a card reader. This is what I currently do now, typically after an 'event' where i take a whack of pics. I just dont bother if I only have one or two. [/LIST]Enjoy your gift . Lots to learn at first, but its a great camera. [/QUOTE]
