I had been toying with the idea of passing this on to photo soc members and - on balance - decided not to; but now I will
Thanks for your post Steven
Me too! Thanks for the article. I needed it.
I learned this one VERY early on fortunately.
I had a sandsk card with several images that were half noisy pink lines
Asking around it was eventually considered that I had deleted images in camera then continued shooting or something similar. Yes I used to delete images in camera and didn't format between shoots
Now I do nothing whatsoever to images in camera, I download and backup then format in camera everytime
Yep, me too. Fortunately I read an article year's ago that this was the better procedure so have always done so. I guess one strikes lucky on occasions!
I have a Sandisk 8mb card in my camera, not all large by current standards, and I have always binned unwanted shots in camera at the end of the day in order to make space on the card. The camera and card are about 6 years old, I have never had a problem. Although I do tend to format the card in camera periodically, I still have Adobe Bridge set to delete the card at the end of uploading to my PC. So basically I have been doing it wrong!
However, having read this, I have ordered a couple of new 16mb Sandisk cards (my camera has two slots). I have actually been meaning to do so for a while, but this article has provided 'added incentive'. Thanks for posting it Mike.
