You said I realise that bears have good teeth , but as strong as that ??

Just get a card reader

Honestly much easier and cheaper leave one in your camera bag , one by the computer and hide a athird somewhere safe as a spare [ just in case you mislay one ]

As the others say - just ' plug and play '

Seriously, either plug the camera in by cable or just take the card out , put it in a card reader and put that in a USB port and away you go . Really couldn't be easier

Lawks Mike's LBA has reared it's head again

I can and will only answer re the K-x

Mine was purchased in November last year - and bought with the kit 18-55 lens. This lens is the 18-55 DA L

Believe it or not , Hypocorism , some of us have only recently entered the world of DSLR and can only answer for our own gear . As far as I know over here if you bought the K-X with kit 18-55 and/or 50-200 then DA Ls were what you got . Some of us did not know enough to buy body only and then get the DA lens.

ooooh

happy Burpday Gwyn

What Hypocorism doesn't seem to realise is that in the UK the K-x when sold with Kit lenses - is supplied with DA Ls .

These do not come with lens hoods or quickshift [ - whatever that is I've never understood the term ]

These DA Ls are lighter in physical weight as the mount is plastic - but in all other details [ glass etc ] they are identical to the DA lens

Funny - I'd noticed that about the squizzies a couple of years ago . The ones that used to chase each other up and down the trees at the bottom of our garden and run round the place were getting more and more red/brown colouring on them . I was wondering if I was imagining it - obviously not

I'll admit - we used to feed them - we built a table on a single leg that was too high for the local cats to climb [ and the overhang on the top prevented the cats climbing on to the top ] We positioned it so that they could jump down from a few branches, feed their wee fat faces, and then jump back into the trees . If they ran out of food they soon let us know

My husband had not long retired then and he used to enjoy sitting at a window in the house watching them play.

I'm beginning to think I'll need a holiday after all this is complete BUT daughter #1 and her tribe all arrive on the 24th !!

Grrrh

Now my phones are playing up

Engineer coming tomorrow
