When I'm on holiday, I use my Android tablet to back up my CF cards - typically 3-500 Canon CR2 files per day - using a card reader and an OTG cable. I can then use the tablet to do an initial review of what I have shot.
Now that LR Mobile Android can add RAWs that are on the tablet, it would be ideal to use this to do the reviews, and a little light editing. Typically, I am doing this in remote safari lodges, etc, with very limited internet connection, so I would need to prevent LR from attempting to sync these RAWs to the cloud - I don't want to turn off WiFi completely, as I do turn it on occasionally for the odd bit of email / web.
In fact, I don't want LR to ever sync these back to the desktop via the cloud, even when I return home, as it is a very inefficient way to import 50-60 GB of RAWs to LR Desktop!
Is this possible - I haven't seen a way yet - or is this scenario just not supported?
Or is there an alternative workflow that achieves the same objective (temporary backup and review), within these constraints. (AND without extra kit - I am usually pushing the weight limits on light aircraft flights as it is!)
Thanks for any input
