I was on the way home last night. Clear skies, the bright crescent moon
was setting over the mountains, earthshine clearly illuminating the
remainder. I stopped at a pull-off and set up the *ist D with 500mm
Tokina on the tripod. Used the IF remote shutter release to avoid the
shakes. Images on the LCD were looking good. As the moon began to dip
below the horizon, pine trees were silhouetted on it's face. More good
ones.
On the way home I was thinking what I might name an image or two.
Twenty-five minutes later I got out of the car at home, opened the rear
door, and began to reach for the *ist D, and it struck me... I had taken
the compact flash out at work to download some photos, and did not
return it to the camera.
Wow! Sorry to hear that!
That custom function setting is being changed!

There's no "no memory card" interlock on that camera?
Human fallibility being what it is, it ought to have one, wouldn't you
think?
