Ah - misread the question.
I've got a spare card reader - Fuji DPC-R1 brand new - in unopened packet. Reads xD cards and smartmedia. Cost £29 - sell £15 - free postage - can't be arsed with e-bay. Mail me if interested. http://www.internetcamerasdirect.com...ji&fcat=44.htm [Edited by workshy_fopp - 4/3/2003 7:56:59 PM] |
Can anyone direct me to a device for storing photos instead of going to the expense of buuying a lappy ? Something I can download onto from my Card until I get home to then download onto my PC .
|
Take a look here at the X-Drive - does exactly what you're after. The site is in Australia, but they're cheap and deliver to the UK within a week.

Thanks Andy, looks a darn sight cheaper than a lappy..will look in detail tomorrow Ta very much . http://www.stopstart.freeserve.co.uk/smilie/hump.gif

Also worth considering just buying more cards - the price is coming down all the time.
Try Value Media. I've got a couple of 512Mb cards and they're good for around 200 frames each at max quality JPEG (6 mega pixels). Unless you're capturing RAW format, which is a different matter..... Al |
I use an Image Tank from Cardmedia. The X Drive's available from them too:

Get a USB memory key - I just got a 64Mb one off ebuyer for £15
|
A USB key would be no use at all - you'd need a laptop to plug it in, and it doesn't have any better cost/capacity than the camera's memory card. You want a Flash reader with a hard disc, like the Image Tank, X-Drive or the Archos Multimedia Jukebox.
|
Thanks everyone for your input. I finally went out and purchased a lappy today. It was the best option after all for various reasons. Got a good deal because it was the display model and for other reasons which I cannot divulge here......suffice to say got almost £300 knocked off the price !! NICE deal !

workshy_fopp , yhm to profile address ..
Cheers Steve |
With a laptop it's well worth getting a PCMCIA flash card reader - it's one less lead to carry.
I bought a Compact Flash one as thats what my camera uses, then bought a SmartMedia/Memory Stick/MMC/SD combo card for the other slot so I can get pictures of other peoples cameras too ;) |
how much storage u talking about ?
just get one of those usb memory stick keyring thingybobs. 256 are about 60 - 70 squid i fink :D |
S55 good idea Never thought about taking stuff off other people's cameras..hmmmm food for thought.
