Nikon image banks

Digital images have to be stored so a photographer can use his memory cards more than once. Nikon didn't made storage devices until 2004. Photographers had to go to other manufacturers to buy an image storage bank. In January 2004 Nikon introduced its first and - as per April 2011 - its only image bank named:

Nikon Cool walker MSV-01

The CoolWalker MSV-01 has a 2.5" TFT LCD monitor, rubberized body finish, a CompactFlash Type I/II slot (other media supported via CF adapters), 30 GB hard disk, Hi-Speed USB 2.0 interface, Audio/Video output plus supplied IR remote control, is powered by a Lithium Polymer battery and has PictBridge direct printing support. The CoolWalker MSV-01 measures 130 x 81 x 35 mm (5.1 x 3.2 x 1.4 in) and weighs in atjust 350 g (12.3 oz). The CoolWalker supports JPEG, TIFF and NEF (Nikon RAW from digital cameras) as well as the playback of audio and video clips (Motion JPEG).

However, modern CF-memory cards with capacities of over 30 Gb. are making this nice device obsolete!
