Gmini 400 and Canon Powershot Combo
Man! I just back from traveling through Europe and realized one of the most brilliant digital photography combos ever.
Before Christmas, I bought an Archos Gmini 400. This new Audio/Video "jukebox" is being billed as the competition for the iPod. I'm sorry to say to Apple. There's No Competition. The Gmini 400 kicks the iPod's ass!
Not only does it play music (more specifically ANY MP3 or WMA file), but it also plays videos, games, and I think you can even cook your dinner with it...
Okay maybe you can make Chicken Cacciatore, but it does allow you to transfer photos from your flash card! That means, you can take an UNLIMITED NUMBER OF PHOTOS with your digital camera. My Canon Powershot S30's batteries were dying before my Archos Gmini 400.
I was a total photography fiend in Europe. I quickly filled up a flash card, transferred the pictures to my Archos Gmini 400, and started taking more pictures.
I remember my friend Tiziano tell me, "Oh, don't take a picture here. There are better pictures to come." I couldn't help but giggle wickedly as I explained I can take a ZILLION PICTURES!
I wrote a full Archos Gmini 400 review here, but I don't think I really realized the potential I had when I decided to combine it with my Canon Powershot S30.
The only thing I need to do now is find a digital camera with a longer battery life. Then I will be an invincible Photography Emperor!
