A portable hard drive from Shining Technology called the CitiDISK DV that can connect directly to a DV camcorder, making it possible to dump video straight to it rather than to a PC. Sounds great, but is this really solving any sort of problem? Digital videotape isn’t all that expensive, so it’s not like you really need to have a hard drive with you in the field for storing all your footage. Maybe if it let you bypass using a DV tape altogether, but it doesn’t look that is the case here.
