3 out of 5 stars Problem with WA compact flash cards   July 9, 2007

Epson has admitted to me that all their storage devices have problems with loading WA cards e.g. Lexar 133x, Told to watch for a fix.


3 out of 5 stars Unimaginably slow   February 9, 2007

I use a Canon 5D and shoot RAW. The files are 12-15 megs each, so they eat up the 8GB of flash fairly quicky. I got this viewer for a trip so I could in effect have 10 8-gig flash cards of backup. On the very first transfer I realized I can't live with it -- it took this device 2.5 hours (!) to import the photos. Once the data was in, the battery was nearly dead.

When viewing files, it takes maybe 15 seconds to populate one screen (about 12 thumbnails) with data. Until that happens the thumbnail slots are blank, so you can't quickly find what you need. Even once cached, it takes several seconds to draw a screenful of thumbnails. For a dedicated device the size of my camera, I expect it to be at least as fast! Instead, it's lethargic. To import 22 RAW files, it took more than 5 minutes -- 14 seconds per photograph, or less than 1MB/sec. What is it doing with all that time?

When viewing RAW files, it only shows the JPEG ewmbedded in the RAW file, so you get no zoom at all. For that, you have to select Jpeg+Raw in the camera, which is a feature I avoid, because it results in twice as many files on my computer, and nearly half the space on the card. I tried that mode, and of course the Epson now takes twice as long to build the thumbnails, and since you now see two identical thumbnails instead of one, you lose half the screen. One thumbnail is zoomable, the other isn't. What Epson should have done is detect that there are two files with the same name, but different extensions -- .cr2 and .jpg, and by default displayed only the .jpg. What photographer would want it any other way?

All in all, this device is just not usable for the high volume of photographs it was designed for.



5 out of 5 stars Perfect For Me !!!   October 9, 2006

Love the Epson P4000. It's perfect for me. I have been afraid of a computer crash for sometime now. So I have been backing up my photos on CD's. Talk about taking a long, long time! I arranged in folders (just the way I wanted them) and loaded into the P4000 about 4000 pictures in about 4 hours. Everything worked just perfect, which is a very good thing for me as I am not a computer geek. I have not used it for video clips or audio and do not plan on doing so. Therefore I can not comment on the use of the P4000 for those applications. I can't wait for my next trip as I can now pull this little gizmo out and show people I talk with my pics of Africa or Russia or China or even my little dog !!!

This takes the place of a laptop to store my images in the field so very satisfactory. I have not had a chance to really try it out but what little I have done is very sharp and it's easy to use. The big screen is great.
