Gummersbach. Compact, sturdy and highly functional: The new mobile Photo-PC JOBO GIGA Vu extreme is the successor to the award-winning GIGA Vu PRO evolution, and offers some new functions. In addition to the card slot for CF, also included is an adapter for SD/SDHC for fast image and data transmission. GIGA Vu extreme is available with disk capacity from 80 GB to 160 GB and is compatible with the new JOBO photoGPS.
GIGA Vu extreme is a compact alternative to a notebook for large quantities of photos, videos, audio and other files. Transfer speeds of up to 1GB in 2 minutes from the camera memory card to the device is assured. A bright (280 cd/m2) and large (3.7") VGA display allows an extremely comfortable assessment and viewing of pictures without a PC, with excellent quality.
After copying the selected data on the GIGA Vu extreme starts, if necessary, a verify process to ensure that a successful copying from the memory card to the hard drive has occurred. GIGA Vu extreme shows not only a preview of digital images, but can also decode over 100 RAW formats. In addition to the automatic display of highlights, the GIGA Vu extreme offers a tonal representation of the RGB channels.
The Photo-PC also offers many more photo professional functions, for example detection of dust on the sensor of a DSLR, the JD Loupe image magnifier, and WiFi/WLAN compatibility. Data from other devices, such as a digital camera, a camcorder, MP3 player or another hard drive can be transferred via the USB-OTG port.
The GIGA Vu extreme is perfectly combined with the JOBO photoGPS. Data from the photoGPS can be saved alongside photos from the memory card. This compilation of the data simplifies the process of reunification of image and GPS Data on the PC.
GIGA Vu extreme is available from mid-October at the following prices (MSRP): 599 (80 GB), 699 (120 GB) and 849 (160 GB).
