Photo tidiness
Been a bit absent as have mostly moved to my other blog, but wanting to keep a toe in here at Vox as there's lots to see.
Just watched a podcast on "Why DNG?" (instead of saving photos in a proprietary camera raw format) and so shall I do.
Also, am following the good advise of Mark and...
The high road on this is to use the camera card, transfer the files - back up the files, so they exist on at least two different elements (hard drives, CDs, etc.), THEN put the card back in the camera and format it - it erases the previous images, but since they are backed up that's no big deal. This creates a new directory for the card for shooting and since you are starting with a fresh directory each time, there is minimal chance of the directory getting fragmented which leads to data loss.
