It’s bad that in 2025, digital cameras do not ship with a way to automatically upload to Apple and Google’s photo libraries, for free, and clearing the local storage as images and videos get uploaded.
- khalladay 1y agoyou expect digital cameras to provide cellular internet access for free?
- boredatoms 1y agoIt could be done over wifi But id really prefer Airdrop
- ginko 1y agoUnironically why not? With how much high-end cameras cost, adding a single-purpose data-plan on top can't be _that_ expensive.
- dewey 1y agoThe battery life of a camera doing basically constant uploads of > 10 MB images over cellular, potentially even in bad reception areas will be awful. It seems much more sensible to just offer a good wifi experience. Kindles offering global reception back in the days for downloading a few kb of ebooks every few weeks are a very different game.
