  • For when you don't have narrow fingers either. With the grip but also without, it is wriggling to get the SD card out of the Nikon Zf. This solution works for me.
    Thanks for stopping by and watching. Should this video be useful, please share it with your friends.
    Have a great day. Creative greetings Alain
    filmed with the DJI Osmo Pocket 3, my apologies for the jittery autofocus.

    LOL .. i just let it spring out 🙂 not a bad idea for the microsd card though..

      Always afraid the SD card will end up on the floor.

      Me too :-)) That hack is not necessary and has never been a problem for me. Push the card into the slot and then let it snap back, it comes out a little further than if you do it like in the video and you can easily grab it. And it doesn't fly out. So 90% of all so-called hacks are completely unnecessary.

    I use mini rubberized tongs, used for cooking….They work amazing….like silicon toaster tongs ( which also work) but smaller.

    My ZF does not have this problem; after pressing, the memory card extends enough to be taken by my fingers. On the other hand, I don’t see any particular need to take out the card often, since the files recorded on it can be quite easily managed from a PC via a USB-C cable connection.
    But thank you for the idea presented in the video!

    Does it fit in a card reader with the tape on?

    • @alainmonnens
      @alainmonnens  7 днів тому

      With my reader, I don't have any problems. Depends of course on the reader and how far the card needs to be inserted. It is then important to position the tape so that it is not blocked in the slot of the reader.

      Yes and have no issue,with or without it

      Speak for yourself, it’s impossible to get it out with my fingers but I like this idea. I just use the port now and wireless transfer.

    doesnt the Zf have a high speed usb c port? Why even remove the card. Just plug the camera straight into your PC. But also Bad design by nikon.

    • @alainmonnens
      @alainmonnens  2 місяці тому

      Yes you can download the picture from the Zf via USB-C. With the grip, it is difficult for my fingers to get the SD card out. Nikon obviously doesn't know the size of my fingers 😉

      There are some reasons to remove the SD cards instead of using a cable:
      1st: Card reader is more fast
      2nd: I have a bad experience with Nikon flaps - so I protect them - I do not know if they need to remove the skin of the camera if they change flaps - and I have a colored one - a grey ZF (and is not sure that you will get back a colored one if you send the camera in Service)
      3rd: I am using different cards with different saved settings (different settings for MF lenses eg on that case the back button is 100% zoom, while on the other card I have settings for AF lenses eg the back button is 3D tracking), so it is important for me to be able to change cards.

    If you do not have the capability to remove an sd card from a camera, then you should not own a camera.

      You obviously don’t own this camera. One of my favorites of all time but without removing the grip and battery every time the card ain’t coming out.

      I find it helps a lot with the grip attached. Don't need it at all without the grip.

      Camera with mounted L-bracket or grip need this. In my case snap-out method results flying card around. You may loose it. But also may ruin your lock mechanism what happened to me. So this is great at Sony A6xxx when bracket mounted.
      But you are free to choose this or "cursing hand-book".😄
