How do people transfer photos from digital cameras then?
Many cameras don't have built in USB/networking of any kind.
- aianus 11y agoMost people don't own digital cameras any more, they just use their smartphones (which have USB/networking).
- ekianjo 11y agoLOL, your comment is quite funny. This may be true for "most hipsters that don't care about photography", but in reality there are still many folks using regular mirrorless camera or even better, full frame DSLR because their price has dropped so much in the past 3 years. And these folks also happen to be the ones looking for premium laptop options in order to get data transferred fast (wifi is too slow for RAWs) and work on their pictures before publishing them. It's not because you dont have a use for it that everyone out there is just like you.
- tarblog 11y agoWifi is not too slow for RAWs. I backed-up my entire library to the cloud over wifi. I would bet most people don't need to transfer their files on a fast enough timescale that wifi is too slow for them.
- aianus 11y agoActually, I have a dSLR myself. But I'm a tech nerd and extremely aware that most people are nothing like me. Most people just take selfies on their smartphone cameras, run them through an ig filter, and call it a day.
- ekianjo 11y agoAgain, most people dont have a 1000+ USD laptop. You are not talking about your regular laptop user here - there is definitely more people who have large cameras and not only smartphones among the ones who buy expensive computers.
- aianus 11y agoI mean, I'm obviously biased because of my age, but walk into any college lecture hall and it's all $1000+ MacBooks. Only a small minority of those same students will ever buy a dSLR.
- megablast 11y agoMost people use only their phones as cameras now.
