Sanho is now out of both of these, the udma and the album, with extensive searching I was able to find one store in the us that had a colorspace udma and it is on its way, and one in canada that has many, but figuring the rates and extra charges the canadian ones were way too expensive. I was recently told by sanho that the otg version of the album will probably not be sold here and that it is considered a low grade version with poor screen, etc.

well, today they told me they will probably not sell the album otg version in this country, and they still have none of the colorspace udma, they said they would make some more but right now are focusing on the album, so i may be ready for my trip and only the one model will be available, and not with otg, or maybe they’ll make some of the others,

I see now they may be offering an otg version of the ‘album’ but it will not have the card slots, you will have to use an external card reader with it

personally i would get the colorspace. i dont use it to review images anyway as the camera screens are so good these days. but i do use the otg backup. its great when you dont want to travel with laptop

Now there’s a new model coming out called ‘album’ with larger screen and some additional options, but it will not have the otg function to backup to another hard drive, you will need a computer to do that, when I found that out, I thought maybe i’ll get the colorspace instead, would you? thanks, Virginia

As far as I am aware Jiang , it can only perform the recovery on memory cards and not the drive that is inside the Colorspace. Though there is software available on both the PC and Mac that could easily recover the shots from the drive, it seems like such a simple thing to omit.

Just wondering, since there’s the ability to recover photos, can’t it be used to recover any photos accidentally deleted? Maybe this’s the reason for lack of delete confirmation screen.
