The best saver when you run out of flash cards

Aug 29, 2006
If you use a digital camera to shoot and you are out in the field shooting something special the worst thing that can happen is that you might run out of free space on your camera. Of course you can take several flash card but the high quality pictures take very much space and you cannot fit very many of them into you flash card. What should you do if you really need to make some more shots? In that case the new photographic accessory gadget will be able to help you.

The new Belkin Digital Camera Link will help you make those several shots that you want. This wonderful gadget can free the space on your camera. You would ask who it does that. The answer is easy. It can transfer all the pictures to you iPod. Amazing huh? A flash card can hold up to one GB of memory; however the iPod can have a hard disk of 60 GB. It is very convenient to use such a way to store your pictures. Almost everybody has an iPod now days so this photographic accessory can be useful to most of us. However, if you do not have an iPod you are going to have to buy one because it will not transfer the pictures anywhere else. All you need to do is to connect the Belkin Digital Camer Link both to the iPod and you digital camera, push the button and the transfer will begin.

That works if your camera has a mini USB interface; most of the new cameras have the mini USB interface. It is very easy to transfer the pictures to you iPod because the instruction is written on the side of the Belkin Link and you will be able to easily transfer the data. There are three light LEDs that will help you know what is happening at the moment. It will tell you if it is transferring, if the battery is low, or if the iPod is full. It is a very safe device and it makes sure that you do not loose any file. Whenever a transfer is being performed it created a new folder in you iPod and nothing is overwritten. There is a disadvantage: you are not able to see the pictures in your iPod. However, you are able to see the file names and you can make sure that the files are copied to the iPod before deleting them from the camera. I have used this gadget to connect it to the Olympus, HP and Cannon cameras and it works just fine. The speed of transferring is not that fast, but I think that it is faster than to go home and transfer the pictures to your computer.

Besides, the Belkin Digital Camera Link is somewhat big. It is almost the size of the iPod. Anyway it is a very good gadget that will help you in a difficult situation. Another good thing about this is that if you have a video viewer for your iPod you will be able to see the pictures that you have made. Now you can sort the pictures and delete the ones that you do not like right there. I believe that this photographic accessory will make it easier for you and I hope it will help you in a difficult situation. Moreover, you get a real life saver just for 90 dollars which is not that much money.
