I've just bought an OTG cable (about £2) and an app called Nexus Media Import (about £2-65) which allows me to copy files to my Nexus, it also allows me to read files on a memory stick (or card reader) pluged directly into the Nexus. Add in RawDroid, which is a free app and my Nexus can now view Jpegs and Canon RAW files (off my 5D3) without having to Root the device. It seems a little flakey but what do you want for £4 :)
As we're all techno-freaks on here thought I'd share that knowledge.

I use the same on my Nexus 32Gb

Also use the CR2 Thumbnails app

Am waiting to see what apps will match the wifi capabilities of the 70D

I am not a techno freak. Bloody IT drives me mad.

Why do people assume we can all use this stuff? I have only just worked out how to get my photos (stored in Picasa) onto a CD and I had to find a youtube video to learn how to do that, which I have saved to my favourites for next time.:)

And if you think I am joking check out this thread:

Tesco Develop and scan.


I sorely wish I was better at all this computer stuff but the fact is I am hopeless and it makes my togging alot more complicated.

Too many people make the assumption that because they understand something everybody else does.

Apologies if this sounds like a rant.

Not at all and if you want more details of how to do it I would be happy to do it via pm or e-mail. I use a PC all day (my day job is to ensure my designers can access and use our CAD system, plus a fair bit of programming, but ask me to levels etc in pshop and I'm lost :thinking: so I fully understand.
