[QUOTE="bluebird, post: 186715, member: 16097"] Ok, I realize that I am going to sound like a complete moron here and I'm sorry. Early in the morning, before coffee, my 5-month-old suddenly discovered that she could reach her toes and I grabbed my brand-new D600 to capture the moment. I'm upgrading from a combination of a Canon PowerShot S3is and an Olympus OM-1, so while SLR isn't new to me, Nikon's controls and display are unfamiliar. I read the manual when I got the camera (yesterday), but I'm still getting used to everything. Each image flashed on the LCD after I took it, and I was able to flip through the series of images on the LCD to show my husband. The moment over, I went back to sleep. When I woke up I hit the playback button and discovered that there had been no memory card in the camera at the time - it was still in the card reader on my computer. D'oh! So my question is this: is there any way to retrieve files from the buffer? I assume that the buffer is what allowed me to flip back through the shots right after taking them, but are they gone now or is there a way to get them onto a memory card? It's entirely my own fault, but I would hate to have lost those pictures. Also, if I insert a memory card into slot 2 and have the camera set to use slot 2 as overflow, will that protect me from this kind of under-caffeinated mistake? In other words, if there is no memory card in slot 1 but there is a card in slot 2, will the camera write to the card in slot 2? Sorry for such a dumb question, and thanks to anyone who is able to help! [/QUOTE]
