Enable Fuji HS30EXR RAW + JPEG mode

2 comments

The Fuji Finepix HS30EXR supports shooting in RAW+JPEG. This is a wonderful change from most ‘superzooms’ which are stuck with JPEG only.

Google Nexus 7 USB file transfer speeds

Leave a comment

When connecting Nexus 7 to Lenovo X220* laptop via USB: I get about 3-4MBs when writing to the Nexus 7.  The files being written were large video files, smaller file transfer (like music/mp3s files) copied at about 2-3MBs… I get closer to 7-8MBs when copying from the Nexus 7 to the laptop.
