2 diff photos rwwlee on my LCD.

But the time it takes for it to download off the CF is frustratingly slow. I find 4Gb/day would be a good day's shooting even on RAW. But it depends on how many days you are going away for and how committed to the camera you are.

Ed, what's the diff between the 2160 and 6210?

The numbering system is a bit confusing, but this link should help.

http://www.vosonic.co.uk/

The 2160 is like an x-drive lite, I guess.

The 6210 is, I guess, similar to the Epson unit, but with a smaller screen. It can display raw images on it's colour lcd, play mp3's etc.

Yep, different here. Is it me or does the first picture have a slight green cast?

Thanks for the comments. The first shot does have a slightly greener tone on my lcd, i'll check it out on another screen later on. Do u guys set your camera colour/parameters to default or adobeRGB? does it not matter if you're shooting in raw?

Thanks guys

It says that the 6210 has a 352x240 pixels 30fps display, is that good?

I think the 2160 doesnt have photo display

I will check out the link

Getting one of these maybe cheaper than getting 4x 1Gb cards. Maybe i should think about it too and not worry about the CF cards.

Thanks for your comments on the B&W scans guys. I'm not sold on the brown-tone thing myself either. Grayscale just looked a little cold, esp on the Taxi Club shot.

Maybe I'll find a better action on that link Ed posted, gotta be better than my home-brew actions

I'm still not getting this colour space thing right, or maybe i'm just missing something. The following are 2 images resized with PS and microsoft picture viewer respectively, i'm seeing 2 very different colour profile on my lcd here at home. Are you guys seeing these 2 pictures exactly the same or differently?

PS resized

Microsoft picture viewer resized

Curious! They both look different to me. The ps cs version looks cooler to my monitor. They are both Adobe 1998, and Gamut Warning shows slightly different regions (less on the ps version)
Curiouser and Curiouser said Alice

Even though the screen is larger, the resolution is not as good as the 20D's LCD. I don't know how much you'd notice, though.

Yep, the 2160 seems to be the budget model. No photo display.

It doesn't matter when you're shooting raw.

btw, I'd have thought 'Nicole' would be hard to misspell, but...

I think this shot was taken by Zane.

The best thing is that it doesn't matter what format cards you have. It'd work on the major cards. But to have 4Gb worth of cards shooting in RAW won't really require you to flush until the end of the night where you might be in a hotel room with a powerpoint handy.

....I first thought it's the name of the coffee...but the name looks like my wife's name. Yes, I also think this is my shot with your Mark 2

BTW, Nicole thought Ed has the 1D Mk 1, I said no why and she said didn't you guys talked about the Mark 1 with metal mount? Nooooo...it was his 50 1.8 Mark 1!! Having said that, she knows more about photography than an average person which I am proud of...I will make her shoot with a 10D this trip
