Hard drive based cameras ever?
Any plans for digital cameras and camcorders with built-in hard drives
to ever be created? I would think the little 5GB drives similar to what's in in a Rio Carbon or iPod Mini could work very well in a digital camera and a 40GB hard drive from a full sized iPod would work pretty well in a camcorder. Why are people opposed to it? |
You can get a Micro drive already

Why are people opposed to it? Because hardrives are usually rated in "ms"... where non-volitle RAM is rated in "ns". So, you really want to slow down the write times?

Flash rated to write three orders of magnitude faster than a hard drive? Really? Wow. When can I get some? B |

Why are people opposed to it? Mircrodrives have been available for years. I've been shooting with 1GB hard drives since 2001. 4GB drives have been available for some time. |

My old Kodak DCS410 has a 512mb hard drive in it. That is the only storage
medium I can use with the old clunker. Sam "TS" wrote in message om... Any plans for digital cameras and camcorders with built-in hard drives to ever be created?

Why are people opposed to it? Don't think they are- several new digital backs for medium format SLRs have built in drives in addition to CF slots. IIRC, the new Mamiya and Hasselblad DSLRs will have them too. -- Martin Francis http://www.sixbysix.co.uk "Go not to Usenet for counsel, for it will say both no, and yes, and no, and yes...." |
