I think I had come to the same conclusion about losing the images. Before I tried reformatting the card I had gone to the much maligned Jessops and they had managed to get a good percentage off, but they could not get them all.

I will now try to get it replaced - BTW (I'm learning the jargon) it's a "MyMemory" 1gb High Speed card. I don't think I'll be buying another one again.

Off topic - may I say what an amazing forum this is for expertise and good humour. It's quite addictive. I'm glad I joined.

Thanks

Hi,

I'm glad to see this topic revisited as this was the subject of my first ever posting.
However, I've just run both ZAR and R-Undelete with very little success ZAR only recovers 9 images out of 270+ and R-Undelete recovers almost all but will only preview the first one or three.
When I insert the card in the camera, a DL2, I get memory card failure.

So please.

Howard

Thanks to everybody for their suggestions.

I think I'll have to save more of my pennies to get one of the Sigma lenses or possibly the Tamron. And I'll have to be more careful when changing the lenses I have to keep the sensor clean.

Howard

I have a question to ask of all you lucky people with your myriad of lenses - How do you keep your sensor clean when you change your lenses?

Also, I am considering replacing my DL2 kit lens and a Sigma 75-300 APO with one lens. I have seen a Sigma 18-200 when I have done a search through google and a Sigma 18-125. Can you please advice as to their relative merits. Yet another question - a lot of adverts show lenses with a hood attached, is it advisable to have it on?

Thanks for your patience.

Thanks, it made me smile.



I hope I did not cause offence, none was intended. It's my wierd sense of homour.

Howard

What great shot's.

I'm no expert and I wish I could get as good shots as these. However do I detect a slight green tinge? Is it my monitor or is the cheese starting to go rotten.

Definitely no criticism intended.

Howard

Do Tecno still have shops? I wonder if there any "Up North". I 'll have to google them to find out.

If anybody is interested - I have just "googled" Sandisk UltraII and from the Sandisk site come the following figures

Minimum of 10MB/second** sequential read speed for ultra-fast image viewing and data transfer
Minimum 9MB/second** sequential write speed lets you capture large image files faster.

By the way I was beginning to think that I was the only one who did not have a K10D and still using an *ist DL2 (with which I am very happy)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How did you get these times?
