10fps is only a speed indication it does not mean it does actually need to make those 10 shots
Something like 60rpm doesn't mean it must make 100 revolutions in reality it can be it makes just one but in 1 second

Good to hear DrOrloff.
I hope they can do something for you.

Just thought about it but you could ask UPS (or someone else) and see what it cost to let it be send by them. They could and should label it as "Light Sensitive" and so it shouldn't go through the X-ray machine as far as I know, but nothing is certain in this world

The canopy looked strange, it's so round and that's why I had a problem with it.

Guilty as charge Well Stefan, it's what the camera manufacturers recommend.

I also do it with USB sticks, every one says you need some kind of action before removing the stick. I did had some corruption because of that because the computer wasn't done with writing
The camera, or at least the K10D as a blinking light that really shows when the camera is actively using the card, if it isn't burning it's safe to remove it and so far never had a problem.
But you're right though, you create your own safety so to say.

Fully agreeing with you there. The thing is FAT32 is a standard, if the brand would not hold on to those standards your computer shouldn't be able to read it either.It's not a good principle though, and it would be foolish if the images on the card were for a professional job.

I don't know what's the cause, it could be that the one of the sectors broke so you would have a unkown bit so corrupted data besides that write errors corrupt data but reading it shouldn't cause any problems.People do have problems with corrupted cards and it makes one wonder why - could it be sometimes due to poor housekeeping?
About housekeeping, once forgot my USB stick and so used the SD card of the K10D.
Their were some documents on it photos and even a program (.EXE) but the K10D had no problem at all with that and happily kept on shooting.
Maybe the luck is with the fool, who know?

Did they gave any reason why they won't want to hand search Kris?

BAA therefore continues to recommend that airline passengers carry all normal, undeveloped film in their hand-luggage not in their hold (checked-in) luggage.
We also advise that special arrangements can be made for photographers carrying professional film (ISO 800 and above) by prior arrangement with their airline or airport.
Hand search requests for professional film will normally be accommodated, but the final decision in all individual cases will always rest with the on-duty security supervisor.

FAT32 is FAT32 by my knowledge and therefore I find it hard to believe it can lead to any problems.
I forgot about cluster size but that's standard 4kb, don't know if that differ with brand?

Sad isn't it but it does feel light and small though. I wonder how the WR version is, never hold or even saw that one. My DFA 100 felt a bit clunky and plasticky when I first got it, mbut this totally belies the remarkable IQ.

Beautiful birds, there is nothing better than the lines of a spitfire.
Is the first photo also a spitfire, an early model maybe?
Too bad of the gray weather btw
