The Eye-Fi Pro is the latest addition to the Eye-Fi WiFi SD card family of cards.

Earlier this year, they introduced YouTube/Flickr-activated Eye-Fi cards. Those video cards required you to connect to Eye-Fi supported hotspots. Even though they have over 10,000 hotspots, it would still be better if you could upload to your own computer.

The Eye-Fi Pro boasts ad-hoc support (meaning the Eye-Fi can connect to your PC directly instead of going through a device such as a router or hotspots. No internet connection is required).

Another nifty addition is Selective Transfer, only files marked as protected or locked will be uploaded from your camera. And according to Eye-Fi, Selective Transfer is free and available now for all Eye-Fi card users through the Eye-Fi Manager.

The Eye-Fi Pro lets users wirelessly upload more file types, including JPEG and RAW images and videos. The Eye-Fi Pro also allows users to create an ad hoc connection through their computer or other mobile device to wirelessly upload media files while away from a wireless router.

“The Eye-Fi Pro has streamlined my workflow. It lets me quickly upload files in the background while I continue my photo shoots. My clients can choose their best shots in near real time,” said Jeff Sockwell, an Eye-Fi Pro beta user and professional photographer who used Eye-Fi in a portrait session with more than 150 dance students. “I also have assurance that photos are automatically saved both on my computer and my Eye-Fi Pro.”

Like the Eye-Fi Explore Video, the new Eye-Fi Pro will automatically upload images and videos direct to more than 25 online photo and video sharing sites. It also lets users upload away from home at more than 10,000 Wayport and open hotspots, and will automatically geotag photos with information about where the images were taken. The Eye-Fi Pro is now available at Amazon.com and www.eye.fi for an MSRP of $149.
