Epson P-2000 Multimedia Storage Drive, Viewer, and...

Strengths: Brilliant(!) screen, plays movie, very fast RAW support, removable battery, above average battery life

Weakness: Almost useless MP3 player function, no audio/video converting/editing software comes with the box, 1-year warranty, flimsy protective case

Clearly, this is the digital portable album with the best LCD display so far, it has very vivid color and can open RAW files directly after images are being transferred to the drive. The speed for opening RAW images is decent too (at least for Canon's CRW an CR2). In fact, I read somewhere that it is the fastest one currently available in the market. The Li+ ion battery is removable and on a...

Strengths: Very well built. LCD screen is fantastic! The sound quality is excellent if you use stereo headphones. You can store and view photos and video and also can store and play mp3's. Nice slideshows.

Weakness: Battery must be charged inside the unit so you can't have your spare charging separately while you are off using your unit.It renames your mp3's to short names. No shuffle on MP3s.

I love the Epson P2000 as it does just what I wanted it to do. I am into digital photograpy and my primary use is to view, store and share my photos. It does this well. I would not recommend it to anyone who is wanting to use it primarly as an MP3 player. If that is what you are looking for I would suggest getting an Ipod. The unit comes with a nice neoprene type case with a belt loop on it. The...

As a media player, though, it's a failure. The problem is it's too picky about the files it'll play. All portable media players have certain format limitations, but the P-2000's are vague (the manual says it plays MPEG-4 files without specifying which of the subtypes it means). We tried a dozen movie files which should have been supported, and even tried to encode our own video. Most of them just...

Excellent product.....for a photographer.

Strengths: Possibly the best screen on a portable storage device, has the ability to play audio and video, built in card readers, 2.5" hard drive makes it possible to hack/upgrade amount of HD storage.

Weakness: Software could be better, limitations on what you can watch and listen to, must use a seperate program to convert video files, somewhat slow transfer rates from memory card.

This is an overall good product. I used it recently on a shoot instead of buying more memory cards. I transfered 3 1GB ultra 2 cards without the battery draining to 75%. Transfer rates from the cards were slow however (roughly about 6-10 minutes). This is because the P2000 scans the card, makes sure it has enough storage space for it, transfers the card, verifies that the data has been...

DO NOT BUY THIS!

Strengths: Beautiful screen.

Weakness: Glitches everywhere in the software, asenine programming, terrible support.

I have had nothing but problems. I have 35 GB of photos on this that I cannot copy off. Every time I connect it to my computer, it freezes and the only way to fix it is to remove the usb cable from the unit. I have an entire 17-day trip to Europe (about 4500 photos) that I will never get. I have called support many, many times and they tell me it

The best

Strengths: Clear display and big capacity

Weakness: A little heavey and thick.

Nice stuff, I like it because 1. The 40G capacity. I do not need another CF card for my Canon 20d during travel. 2. Very big and sharp display. It is absolutely attactive to every one. 3. You can view DVD after transfering file to AVI. Format. 4. Music is not bad though not super. It also has some disadvatages: 1. A little heavy and thick. 2. Epson do not provide software to transfer the DVD...

The best storage viewer in the market

Strengths: Biggest screen and two-slots

Weakness: A little heavy, fair sound quality and high price

I compare the product with its competitor for 1.5 months. And fianlly I decide to buy this since: 1. The best screen in the marekt.Very sharp and vivid. 2. High capacity :40G. It should be enough for 5-6 days travel. 3. It could store and read RAW formart. I didn't other machine can do that. 5. Two interior slots for SD and CF card so as my wife and I could share the viewer during our travel. 6....

Nice little device to review your digital pictures

Strengths: - High resolution - Sharp pictures - Built in rechargeable battery

Weakness: - Price - A bit slow to cache the images for the first time - Limited video file format

A nice quality picture viewer, which you won't see it from your digital camera. 40 GB internal HD. Expensive, but quality built. A little bit slow to load pictures for the first time. Wish it can play various movie files, not limited to MPEG4 or M-JPEG only.

Epson P-2000

Strengths: Excellent resolution screen. Excellent color reproduction.

Weakness: Bulky file transfer and album creation. Slow switching between images.

The quality of the images is very high, making this an excellent choice for showing off photos. This device takes the place of the packages of prints that were passed among the relatives. Organizing photos into albums is slow and laborious; it generally must be done on the viewer. Despite the time it takes to arrange the photos into albums, the high visual quality makes this a winner. Battery...

Epson P-2000 multimedia storage album review

The Epson P-2000 can store and display a variety of audio and visual format content, from photos, including some camera RAW format files, to MP3 digital music files and digital video movies. Compared to its P-1000 predecessor, the P-2000 is faster, more versatile, eeks more up-time from its battery and it’s cheaper too. Above all, it has one of the best screens in the business.
