Hi Brian, I've done both and card reader is definitely quicker. Eye-fi in the TG850 means I don't have to open it all the time; its waterproof so I can transfer while it's wet. With other cameras it's been card reader. Card reader is definitely cheaper - jaycar is your friend :-) Ciao, Pete

Lagavulin was once my single malt of choice, but it's now overpriced. I also find it a bit too sweet. I'm now a fan of Laphroig 10. To my taste it has the deepest peat flavor and it's reasonably priced. I drink blends as well to save dollars but prefer single malts. Believe it or not, the
