I have FF3 with android 10. I have inserted a SD Card (Sandisc). How can I transfer my pictures (and gpx tracks) to the sd Card? Thank you, Felix

Concerning pictures (photos) taken with the camera app, I recommend to – every now and then – move them manually from the (built-in) internal storage to the SD card. This is better than trying to get them saved directly to the SD card (which might slow down taking photos). Use a file manager app or…

I’ve never imagined that saving a photo on SD could have impact on taking photos. I know saving on the internal memory is faster than saving on an external SD but can you please add something more about the price I pay for saving directly to the SD? I’m thinking of going back to the predefined cho…

I’m not saying I want to format SD as an internal memory. I want to leave the SD as it is, an external storage, and changing the camera directory to the internal storage. Now it saves directly to the SD. Ciao, Max

My procedure since my first experience with the smartphone and the handling of the photos is as follows: I save the photos according to the camera’s standard, which means in the “DCIM” folder and subfolders of the camera. In my experience, this is sufficient for hundreds of photos or a week without …

I will openly say this is a reasoning on my part, not verified fact. My assumption (and I am sure about this) is that the SD card will always “respond” a bit slower than the built-in internal storage. So there might be situations in which the delayed “response” of the SD card can create problems, fo…

I don’t think there is a need to “wake up” the SD card as you say. Once it is mounted, I don’t see why it should be woken up, it is an active storage. Also, in case of HDR, except if you specifically choose to store all photos used for the shot, they should be saved in the RAM and the photo assemble…

SD card | I think we are at a point where we should compare SD cards. The manufacturing company and the specification of the card can be very different but also very important. The app that controls the card also makes a difference in my opinion. Wiki has its own pages [image] SD-Karte …

Did you format the SD card as external? If you go to Settings > Storage you hopefully will see the eject icon. If you don’t then you have formatted it as internal which often leads to many seemingly unrelated problems.
