The ability to be able to share images (meaning have people look at images downloaded to the P-3000) without lugging a laptop around is great, especially since the viewer is of such high quality.
When I try to transfer images between camera and the P-3000 in the field, however, it asks to be plugged into the wall. If the rechargeable battery can't handle the transfers by itself, it would be nice to at least have a 12-volt adapter.
I also give the unit high marks for its plug and play functionality. The owners manual is quite easy to follow.
So, to summarize, love the image quality and ease of use, but find it demanding, in regards to power demands.
OK, I'll grant you it's pretty expensive, and the use of it isn't immediately obvious to anyone who doesn't already own one. But let me explain: I'm a semi-pro photographer, and given today's travel restrictions and airline weight limits it isn't always practical to carry a laptop computer with a bulky charger in order to back up and view photos I take on the fly. The Epson P-6000 isn't much larger than maybe 4 decks of cards stacked together, and it weighs only about two pounds. (The charger, a standard 9 volt with a transformer, weighs a couple of ounces.)
BE AWARE, though, this unit ONLY ACCEPTS COMPACT FLASH (CF) AND SD CARDS. NOT MINI-SDs; NOT xDs; NOT SONY MEMORY STICKS. This makes it perfect for Nikon users and the many ... Read More:
Good amount of storage and you can also watch video recorded in MP4 format. The screen resolution could be better but a good buy and reasonable quaality with a variety of storage card choices.

What it is:
Its great storage device with a SD and DF cards slots so you can dump and view photos on the go. Great way to view photos and video other than passing around the camera.
Why its great:
While not all files are viewable it will "take" any file format. You can take all you pictures and video off your digital camera without missing a beat. Very functional. Also you can record video which is great for watching movies on a plane.
What its not:
A professional photo viewer. It can handle RAW and JPEG but the quality is not something you want to judge you images on. Again its great to just dump photos and then share them. It can play music but its not an ipod. It has a great "playlist" feature but it is ... Read More:
"Usage is not intuitive, especially when deleting an image. To delete an image, you have to dig into the menu and go into delete mode as oppose to simply deleting it. So there are a normal view mode and a delete mode and you'd have to navigate between the two. The worst part is that zooming works fine in normal view mode but is disabled in delete mode. It makes sense that when you delete something, you'd want to zoom in, at least for sanity check. "
I use my SLR in sport mode, and take multiple shots in a row. Does the P-7000 make it easy to blaze through a big batch of action photos and delete the ones that I don't like?

This product is excellent! All my photos and memories are now on the device I can share and remember. I had photos from 1997 when I went to Belize birding. I scanned them all and downloaded them into this device.
I can even watch the slides while music plays in the background. This is
the best gift my husband gave me.

I was intrigued by the concept but in the past heard stories of the "black box" failing. But I have put this through its paces and it works great. It has slots for cards (CF, SD, etc) or you can connect directly to your camera via USB or your computer via USB or eSata. The unit verifies the data during transfer and can tell you when the HD is failing. Speaking of which it uses a standard laptop drive and is designed so the user can upgrade to a larger drive on his own.
The Nexto DI doesn't just backup images - it also can backup your video camcorder. With the unit you can see a file structure and backup your computer itself (think itune files). But with its OTG system you don't need a computer when you are on assignment.
I know many different ... Read More:
