[QUOTE="Heka, post: 381116, member: 34581"] Hi all, I purchased the Eye-Fi Mobi last weekend, and now I've been testing it with my D7000. I've experienced major issues with this combination when taking the pictures: 1) card is freezing and then I get an error message which says that the card "cannot be used, card may be damaged.." or 2) after taken the shot I try to check the picture but the camera freezes (sometimes with the previous picture on the display and sometimes with a blank screen). Also the file transfer is not fully working: I'm taking the picture and the wi-fi connection is established to my iPad/iPhone (tested with both), but when taking pictures I only manage to transfer 2-3 pictures before the Eye-Fi app freezes and after a while the connection is lost. [TABLE] [TR] [TD="class: td1"]I contacted the Eye-fi customer support and they told that the Eye-fi "card works best when in slot 1. The reason for this is that slot 1 actually gets more power than slot 2 and our card has a higher power requirement than standard SD."[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] This is not an option for me since I want to shoot RAW's (to slot 1) and only have the jpg's (in slot 2) for quick sharing and file Mgt purposes. I tried to search if there are any potential problems with this combination already before purchasing the product (Eye-fi), but I understood that the card should work in both slots with D7000. Have any of you experienced this type of problems? Could it be that I just have a defective card? I have updated the camera firmware to A1.04/B1.05. [/QUOTE]
