Apple iPod to Disappoint Photographers?
Bad news for photographers everywhere - looks like the new Apple iPod won’t be such a great option for storing your digital images, at least according to Playlist Magazine (found via Gizmodo).
“I assumed that if you attached a media card reader to the iPod, it would not only download pictures from the reader but also display those pictures on the iPod. Not so. The iPod stores its pictures in special thumbnail files. These files hold multiple pictures that are displayed on the iPod?s screen and an attached video output device (TV or camcorder). When you import photographs (either from a media reader or by storing the full resolution images on the iPod - an option in iTunes) those photos are stored in a Full Resolution folder inside the Photos folder that appears at the root level of the iPod.”
