For me it's not that, but rather the camera sometimes makes up new ones, and it's easier to have just the one - keeping track of files etc. It also points to the format not being that thorough (i suppose you'd expect this considering how long it takes). What i'd want is something that formats the card back to it's first state, which would be a positive thing especially if there's something "iffy" about the card. > However, I've never formatted the cards from the computer and know that its > highly recommended to only format in the camera itself. Presumably this is > the same for Nikon's? yeah, heard the same, but again the in-camera format isn't that "deep". I think the standard format for any card is dos fat16, which is a pc format, hence problems with mac formatting. cheers, slater ps does anyone know where i can get a dictionary for outlook express?!? as you can tell my spelloing isn't too good. =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
