I ve spent the last decade lugging a 500mm f/4 lens through India s jungles and Africa s savannahs - chasing tigers, lions, birds, and moments that vanish in milliseconds. But my real nemesis? Airlines! Every trip felt like a duel at check-in with carry on weight limit:
Lens / Camera body ? Non-negotiable.
Tripod, Bean Bag? Critical
Laptop? Carried with pure resentment - only for backups..
On a trip to Tiger park, I left the laptop behind to make weight. My camera shoots at 30fps - beautiful, but brutal on storage. By Day 3, I was on my last SD card. By Day 5, I was deleting photos during a game drive. On the last safari, as tiger cubs were play-fighting - my card locked up due to insufficient space. That night, I rage-sketched this on a napkin:
I m excited to share an early look at PurrfectBackup a simple, standalone device designed to back up SD cards without a laptop or internet.
Just plug in your SD card (via reader) and storage drive - it automatically copies your files safely and shows clear progress and status. No cables or setup headaches.
