[QUOTE="Woodyg3, post: 680025, member: 24569"] All of this reminds me of when I was doing a sports clothing shoot in college, and didn't finish the roll of film. So, I used the last few shots at a cross country meet in a big park the next day. When I rewound the film, I put it in my pocket, loaded another roll and kept shooting. Somewhere in that park, the roll of film fell out of my pocket. So part of the sportswear shoot was simply gone forever. Fortunately, the guy who owned the store was happy with the pictures I delivered, and I guess he didn't notice the missing shots. Being a shy 20 year old, I didn't have the guts to tell him, either. :) A digital card that held hundreds of shots sure would have come in handy back then. Meanwhile, I think two card slots are a good idea, and I really do understand that some photographers don't want to go with just one slot these days. That said, I've never used the second card slot for anything but overflow. To each his/her own, and I won't criticize either way of thinking. Another thought came to mind. Remember the old VW Bugs that had a reserve fuel tank in case you ran out from the main tank? I heard lots of stories of people switching to the reserve, only to find little or no gas in the reserve tank. [/QUOTE]
