Authors: Eye-Fi has extended its range of wireless SD Cards by announcing some 4GB cards that will also let you automatically uploading videos to YouTube and Flickr. The two new cards double the capacity of existing cards and the addition of video uploading support will no doubt interest you avid video sharers. The cards, Eye-Fi Share Video and Eye-Fi Explore Video, work like Eye-Fi's regular Wi-Fi SD storage cards by sending photos to your online site of choice and now video to sites like YouTube and Flickr. "The magic of Eye-Fi's new cards is that they work with the camera you already own to capture photos - and now videos - and send them directly to the Web for sharing," said Jef Holove, CEO for Eye-Fi. "Whether you're spending time with your kids or chatting with a friend, your memories will upload in the background for instant sharing - all by simply turning on your camera." The cards can upload photos and videos directly to one of more than 20 online photo sharing and social networking sites. The Eye-Fi Explore Video card also throws in some geotagging for your snaps and vids. "According to our research, nearly half of consumers reach for their digital camera to take video, instead of their other video capture devices, like phones or camcorders," said Alan Bullock, research analyst with InfoTrends. "Solutions like Eye-Fi make it easy for consumers to use the digital camera they already own to shoot and share videos." Available for pre-order here, the 4GB Eye-Fi Share Video costs $79 and the 4GB Eye-Fi Explore Video, $99. The company is also launching a new iPhone application that allows Eye-Fi users to store and share all their photos, from both an iPhone and a digital camera, into the same organised computer folder and to one of 25 online photo sharing Web sites.-Martin Lynch gadgets digital camera youtube video
