Re: Fw: K-5 Arrived! - now I have a question :-)
I like having both. When I'm sitting here at the computer, I don't have to get up go into the other room dig the manual out of my camera bag. But when I'm out somewhere, I don't have to dig out my laptop fire it up to get to the PDF version.

Re: K-5 Arrived! - now I have a question :-)
I've gotten that on a few occasions. It's usually one of a few things. 1. If you've got an older multi-function card reader, it might not read larger capacity SD cards. I ran in to that when I switched from the *ist-D CF cards to the K10D SD cards. SDHC cards hadn't been invented when I bought the multi-function reader I used with the *ist-D. 2. The SD card isn't completely seated in the slot. The computer is seeing the card reader, but not the card inserted in the reader. 3. USB is acting flaky I can't tell you why. Or Adobe downloader may not be up to the task. On 7/15/2013 2:25 PM, Ann Sanfedele wrote: Everything very user friendly... of course I've tried it out on Ashley...

Re: K-5 Arrived! - now I have a question :-)
I've found these to be very reliable. They're OEM'd under a whole bunch of names http://www.amazon.com/computers-accessories/dp/B000Z9R2QQ I get them from Tiger Direct for $4 each, but I'm shopping at the local retail outlet. You can probably also find them at Target, Walgreens, Walmart, Big Lots or the like. BH has them OEM'd as Vivitar brand. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/811411-REG/Vivitar_VIV_CR_35_SD_Card_Reader.html I don't know how convenient BH is to where Ann lives.
