ripcords 0 #1 March 18, 2007 I was looking at the threads for stand alone burners, but most of them are old and you know how electronics evolve. So I would like to ask for current opinions. I would like to get a stand alone CD burner to burn my digital pictures to CD for customers. I would prefer one with a view screen, so that you have more controls as to what gets burned, but that is not vital. Ease of use and speed of burning is important. So far I have found: EZDigiMagic™DM220-D08 DVD Burner, Apacer CP300, Addonics MFR, Delkin DVD BurnAway, Sony DVDirect-MC3, Alera Digital Photo Copy Cruiser, and dz.com mentioned the Roadstor. What are you using to supply your customer with their photos? How easy is it to use? How fast is it? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peej 0 #2 March 19, 2007 I currently use my laptop to deliver stills on CD. I walk into my edit suite after the tandem, plug my CF card into a universal card reader, drag the pics to my desk top and then into a program called "Drag to disk" which dumps them to cd. The stills are burned by the time i finish editing the DVD. Advertisio Rodriguez / Sky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ripcords 0 #3 March 20, 2007 Thanks, but I really didn't want to use my computer and was hoping for some advice on stand alone units that work well for this application. It seems that with the advent of OTG, these stand alone CD/DVD burners are becoming a thing of the past. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydog 2 #5 March 20, 2007 I have used the apacer burner and thought it was ideal. It would burn the images in about the same time as I took to edit. BrynJourney not destination..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peej 0 #6 March 20, 2007 No worries, i run my music off my laptop too so it makes sense for me to use the CD burner to deliver stills. I know one guy at the DZ who bought a stand alone player and then went back to using his laptop cos it didn't work so well. I can't for the life of me remember the name though Advertisio Rodriguez / Sky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pope 0 #7 March 22, 2007 EZ DigiMagic seems to be the best one out there right now. We ended up just getting a Dell Destop to do the work--it's at least as fast but archives your pics fr you too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
