Nikon CoolWalker

by Josh Rubin

Today Nikon also announced the CoolWalker MSV-01 mobile storage device. The MSV-01 is the first in a new line of digital image storage devices that solves the storage limitation problem of CF. It will no longer be necessary to have a slough of CF cards, or a laptop always available when you go out on a shoot.

It has a 2.5" LCD monitor, rubberized body, a Compact Flash Type I/II slot, 30 GB hard disk, Hi-Speed USB 2.0 interface, a Lithium Polymer battery and many more features. It measures 130 x 81 x 35 mm (5.1 x 3.2 x 1.4 in) and weighs just 350 g (12.3 oz).

Nikon D70

by Josh Rubin

Today Nikon announced the D70, its newest digital SLR. It combines professional level features and quality with slightly more accessible pricing. I'm interested to see how the image quality compares to the D100.

When it hits the shelves this Spring, the D70 will cost $999 as body only and $1299 with the new 18 - 70 mm DX lens.
