Reading between Russell's lines (!) I think for data-security he wants a device to plug into the camera 
instead of the card, which then records the photo twice immediately, as part of taking the photo, rather than 
doing something manually with the single card afterwards.  Hence his not being able to change the recording 
side, only the card-emulator.

I wonder if using the camera's USB interface (I guess it has one) to record to a belt-worn USB hard drive 
would be feasible?
