Clasic mistake

[mrwall]

what beginner mistake did I do today?


got a mile into a walk around Rivington, saw a brilliant picture pop up infront of my face........."sorry internal memory is full!"

I had forgot my flipping memory card!

Gutted!

Fair play to you for 'fessing up to this.

I suspect there are two types of people in this world. Those who have done something like this and those who are going to.

I got to Arundel WWT to photograph the ducks and switched the camera on - nothing. At that point I remembered putting the battery on to charge. D'Oh! :bonk:

A friend did something similar last week, brought his camera bag and new lens to a car meet only to open it and find he had left the camera body plugged into his laptop at home

Been there, done that and got the IM A PLONKER badge. I bet you'll never be without a card from now on. As someone with a brain like a sieve, I have cards in my car, in my wallet, suit pockets everywhere I can think of. My cameras are never without them cards. I take one out I put another one in cos I just can't make the same mistakes again.

Never left without a memory card, but I have left with just one memory card in the camera, no spares and the card being full from a previous day's shooting (without having been downloaded first!) Doh!

Most of us have done it at some time. I have a rule now that as soon as I get home images are loaded onto computer, backed up, and cards reformatted and put back in the camera case straight away.
