Okay, I'll confess. I've done it, too. LOL!! A couple of years ago, I had gone out shooting and left my spare cards at home. I got the bright idea of taking the card from the back-up body. After downloading all the cards, I reloaded the primary and put it back in the bag. When I grabbed a camera on the next outing, I accidentally picked up the 2nd body on my way out.
I now make sure that all cameras have cards BEFORE putting them away after use. Of course, the K10D will save my bacon as long as I remember that there is a spare card in the grip. ;) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of frank theriault Sent: Monday, May 26, 2008 11:37 To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Subject: Re: Don't leave home with out one.

Yes, well, you should count yourself lucky. Think of the alliterative phrases one can conjure up from my name: Frankie F**k-up, anyone? ;-) Anyway, about a month ago I wandered out of the house with my *istD for an afternoon. For whatever reason, I didn't see much to shoot that day. As I got to within a couple of blocks of my apartment, I went to shoot something completely inconsequential, only to discover that the body had no card in it. "Whew!" I thought to myself. "No harm, no foul. I'm lucky I didn't miss any good shots, but who else would be as stupid as me and forget their card?" Today you answered my question, Dave! ;-) cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
