In that cas, I think you are correct in guessing that it won't work. I
don't put RAW or even large JPEGS on my iPod; I use it mostly for music
and books, and a few photos that I want to carry around to show people.
Since the iPod's resolution isn't that good, and the image is small, I
usually reduce the size of photos before putting them on the iPod.

I was referring to the use of the iPod Photo as a standalone image
storage device. The latest versions of the iPod Photo can attach
directly to a camera and initiate the transfer of image files to its
disk. However, I am not sure that it will transfer anything but JPEG
files ... that is, it will not transfer .CRW, not .NEF, not .PEF,
etc, RAW format files in this mode. I'm not sure about that, however,
so it's something to check with the specs of the iPod Photo software
before relying upon it.
