In this article I will focus only on one of the things I mentioned in previous articles, which is the memory card used for your images.

Photo Film have generally far less choice if the photos, they were relatively simple and therefore something simple. She went to the pharmacy and bought a roll of film, either 24 or 36 exhibitions, she plunged into the camera and began to fire. When you’re done, the role of cinema in the old traditional camera film, your work has been done, you just the film to the memory for processing. In a day or two, or more recently, an hour or two, she came and gave all your beautiful impressions. They were ready to show everyone to look at best photos. In the days of film, there was little choice, the film speed or ISO number (yet to be used in digital cameras), if you or images and the number of claims on the electoral roll, 24 or 36

In those days, the loss of the role of film, either because you, there is no place, or the drugstore verschraubte the transformation has not always been too large to reach agreement, as you General rule, had several film roles with other photos of selection. But in this digital age, a memory card can store hundreds of photos, even thousands if you shoot in low resolution. The loss of a memory card can be a real tragedy, because each card can also be a large number of images, most people an entire day on a map demonstrations. That is why it is important digital for a particular case for your memory cards, help to avoid losing.

One of the biggest problems is, however, unlike the movies, memory cards can be very sensitive to how they are treated and, therefore, it is very easy to lose a lot of photos. In this article I will try to clarify certain provisions meet you in order to avoid problems.

Step 1 Always try to buy a card good quality, a camera, if possible. The staff of the camera to record, it is generally always the possibility of offering good advice and a map of the quality of your camera. A good map can sometimes cost a little more, and I spoke only a few dollars more, like a cheap card from the budget of the drugstore. Sometimes, the medicine can save the map ok, but I think it is always advisable, make sure that a quality product, which allows you to learn about expert advice, and where you n ‘ have no problems returning the card, whether it should for any reason.

Step 2 The first thing you must do if you when buying a new memory card format for the card in your camera. This step is crucial. Digital cameras are not all equal and the card can cause problems, even if the card format on your computer, instead of the device. If the card is not in shape or you will get an error if the device attempts to format the card, you must immediately return to the memory of a replacement. Please note that not all cards are compatible with all digital cameras. Most Low-End and High-End-compressed, have a ceiling regarding the size of the memory card can be used.

Step 3: Never take the map of the camera, while the camera is still writing the file on the memory card. They are often people have a photo, then almost immediately a map of the device. This may be slightly damaged the card and it is impossible to comment on images of the card into the computer. If you need to move the map after a coup, wait a few seconds, to ensure that the file has been completely written on the card, I propose a general rule, about 20-30 seconds. The objective is to ensure that the file is safe and sound on the map.

4th stage ever Take your memory card and insert it into another camera without formatting the card on the new device. This means, of course, you need a backup copy of all files on the card, then the card into the camera and other formatting the card before use. As I mentioned earlier, all digital cameras are the same, and how they write files on the card can be quite different, you map and corruption make it impossible for the files you’ve already on the map.

Step 5 Try to maintain contacts on the memory card before items and all dirt or grease. The contacts with memory cards can easily dirty or damaged to the point where it is not in images. This can be very painful, later, if everyone wants results.

Step 6 Make sure the batteries of the camera are fairly responsible, so that the camera, you can write files on the card. If the camera battery died during the process of writing the file, you lose the file and perhaps all files on the card, at the time of the problem.

Step 7 As a precautionary measure, you can use software specifically designed for images of memory cards. Recovery Software sometimes comes with the memory card you buy.

Use precautions as it can help prevent a problem than ever. I also met other talented young photographers have problems, but these problems are of one of the above steps. I think the problems are more frequent because of the photographer not that formatting memory cards before each recording. Attach the card before each shot, then the format of the camera. This is a general rule, or at least avoid problems with which you recognize a problem before any serious damage was done.
