With 16MB photos and a new Android phone, how many seconds will a photo take to load for view and zoom? I do NOT need to download wirelessly. Thanks!

The RAW files don't seem to get transfered in the app, and I'm not sure if you can even use them on the phone. I shoot RAW+JPG. It takes a few seconds per photo to download to phone, but it goes in a directory burred pretty deep. So then they have to be moved where you want them like the camera folder.

Yah that's correct. This varies quite a bit though. If you only have 5 photos to load it's a lot faster than if you have 50 photos. I wouldn't consider this device lightning fast by any means but it does allow you to access the card without having to plug it into a computer which is handy in it's own right.

With my card I've noticed that it can be a relatively slow load time and if you have a lot of photos to go through it's even longer. For 8-10mb images it usually takes about 10-15 seconds, sometimes 20

It is only a few seconds, maybe two or three. I used this camera for the first time this weekend on a getaway & had no issue with the slight delay. Still got great pictures.

No, no delay when snapping pics. That was one of my biggest must haves as I have a young child that is always on the move. I've been very happy with this camera. No problems with the battery life. I did buy extra batteries though so I always have an extra one ready to go.

I love this phone I'm into my second week of having it. the camera is good, I've been out hiking and took pics and my hiking buddies all loved them, as with most any other camera once you have a steady hand the pics are good...hope this helps! :)

Hi Richard, waiting time between two shots is relatively long, but there is an function called "continuous shooting" which I like. Battery life time is really great. Zoom does not diminish final picture. In regards high speed video, there is a bug in the software. After lets say 1 minute of the high speed video, buffer gets full and final video is than affected :( Other than that I am very happy with this camera! Cheers, Milan

I want to say about 5 - 6 hours for me. I zoom A Lot but I still get many hours of shooting time, if I shoot a lot of videos that cuts into it also. I always carry an extra battery or two so I don't miss anything.

Very useful. You can download your pics wireless to your smartphone and remote control the camera with your smartphone. You can delete pics from the camera with your phone as well. You can save and print pics wireless also. It can be a little tricky to get connected to your phone but once it's done it's a very useful feature. I was on a line at Disney viewing and deleting pics with my phone while the camera was in it's bag.

It streams as you take them. After you take the first picture it takes about 10-15 sec for the camera to connect to the phone then about 1-3 sec to transfer each full resolution pic. You can turn off the sync on the phone or camera. There is no interrupting your picture taking as the sync queues up when the camera is available. I took 50 pictures anand they were all on my phone 2 minutes later.

I got mine from Fry's. It is the newer model with 128mb. There was some lagging in speed because the images were too high of a resolution. The quick fix is to use the WindowsXP powertool call ImageRiser. Free to download. Shrunk my 5.0mp images from about 1.7mb in size down to about 30k (at the 800x600 setting). Images now slideshow much faster and with a left over 512mb SD I had laying around, I could easily put thousands of images on it. Could not get the videos to work though, would be nice but no biggie. On the images where the pictures are bright and sunny, it looks great, but darking indoor images, the contrast is not so great. From 6 feet away, it is very watchable, up close at 2 to 3 feet, you can see the pixels.

There is a lag time. Not exactly sure how long... Maybe 1-2 seconds. When I first got the camera I hated the lag time, but I would say that I am used to it now. I wouldn't let the lag time deter you from purchasing this camera. It is a great product.

I've taken a couple thousand pictures with mine since December 07. I think the problem is the image size/resolution setting. If you take every photo like you might want a huge enlargement from it, the process of recording to the card is what takes a long time. I think it's going to be slow, but I'd play around with smaller resolution etc. to find a bearable compromise.@S.K., yes it seems worst if you're using flash and stale batts.

About a second, now I have a 16gb memory card in it which I'm sure helps also. Its a great camera for the price!

micro SDHC... 32Gb is probably overkill. Most would find 16Gb to be more than adequate. I personally have 8 Gb which is probably what a new phone would come with. They are very inexpensive ($7-$8) at Walmart and elsewhere. If 8 isn't big enough,then get a bigger one. It depends on how many photos you wish to store on your phone.

Start up time is short. The time between the taking of one picture to the next is, of course, not as quick as a SLR; I'd say 3 to 5 seconds.

For me, there is kind of a long delay. It doesn't really take photos fast. Also, when it is not zoomed in all the way, it doesn't take as good photos as it does when it is in full zoom (weird). Also, the quality of the photos indoors are not that great. The quality of the photos outdoors are better.

Actually, I stopped using it about three months after I bought it. The system ran too slow for me, so I spent a lot of time waiting for pages to load. It also had a habit of locking up, so I'd have to unplug it and plug it back in to restart. It has a poorer experience rating than a Motorola Droid X2, in my opinion. Though; not as glitchy as the X2, it's close enough not to be pleased. That coupled with it not being snappy and the fact you can't block ads and redirects makes an irritating experience. Mind you, this is based on my experience with this device approximately 10-12ft away from the a/b/g/n router. Also, I should add that a friend of mine bought one as well and did not have the same functionality. She couldn't install adobe Flash and therefore couldn't play .flv files. In my opinion, these things need to go back to R&D. Then upgrade all the components and re-release it. If it were as snappy as and iPad Gen1 or Samsung Galaxy S3 and charged $200-250, it would be worth it. Hope this helps..

There isn't a lot of lag time, but I was constantly changing settings to get the best pictures. I have hardly used it because it took too much time and found that my iphone took better pictures.
