Then a little, OT, tip for both of you. If you go into your User CP, you can set your location so everyone will know where you really are.

Since Rudi raised the issue, it seemed a helpful hint. Also helps if you're asking for shop recommendations or the like.

For better unit than the P5000, look at the Jobo GigaVue Pro Evolution.
Faster downloads and sharper screen.

Bring this thread from the dead...

Does anyone have any protective screen film for this unit? I honestly, don't know how rigid the screen is from scratches and whatnot. Any info, direction, or advice would be appreciated!! Thanks in advance.

What does the Giga give you over the Epson? I don't see anything really earth-shattering. In fact the Epson has two drive bays (CF and SD), whereas it appears the Giga uses a CF/SD adapter. The only thing I see is that it will show the RAW exactly as is and not use the JPG embedded thumbnail. Everything else, at least at a glance, seems to mirror what the Epson has.

You hit the nail on the head you see, zoom and use the built in lupe on the actual RAW image. Transfer is blindingly fast to.

You can zoom on the Raw files as well, on the P3000/5000, but you are limited to what steps izes as you are zooming the jpeg (which is sufficient for most everything I would think), so I could see the Giga being great for pixel peeping if that is what you are doing. Transfer of card content to device is a much bigger pro for the Giga if it is indeed faster than the Epson. The old Epsons were pretty slow, the new ones are decently quick, but I don't remember what the transfer rate is.
