Ahh HAAA !!!! But then again another reason to go digital !!! (Bought a Mamiya-Secor 500 DTL 35mm SLR in 1973 for the preparation of the arrival of my first child... came home from the hospital the day of his birth with a filmless camera......) Kinda like playing air guitar, I guess....

But great idea. Just don't do it again... :-) Cheers

well, actually, no big loss - Fuji SuperHQ 200 is without a doubt the* worst film I've ever used, color negative or otherwise. The superia line is great stuff and for all i know SHQ100 is decent too, but SHQ200 - eeeeew. Grainy garbage @ 8x10, it's obscene. If you only print at 4x6, okee, but god help you if you want to enlarge the neg beyond that.

Ever started shooting something important only to realise after several hours that you had forgotten to load film?
Ever forgot to have your film pushprocessed when needed?
Ever meticulously labelled every can of film with date/time/location only to forget to label the envellopes for the lab with the same data?

I too have been extremely careful with my gear. In fact when I placed it on the roof of my truck (so that I could get the rest of my gear out) I actually remember pushing it up so as to be level, not slanting at all so I thought. I guess pulling out the backpack and tripod shook it down somehow. I still do not know how exactly. First one, then the other. The only thing that broke was my Cokin P holder and Sunset filter (which I have more than one of anyway) Thank goodness, because I did catch one awesome sunset afterwards. Believe me John, if you shoot extensively, you will drop or bang it somewhere down the line. Hope not though!

How about deciding to take long (looooong) exposures throughout a hot, sunny August week? This "bright" idea (the result of someone who's never dabbled long exposures and an impractical brain that doesn't reason things out to a logical conculsion) led me to burn through 14 rolls of film. Literally.
Feel better now? *L*
P.S. - I love the tear on the paper from the scribble. It screams, "AAARRRRGGGHHHH!" more than words can convey. :p

Have you opened your camera without rewinding the roll yet?? I have. Have you accidentally set the camera for ASA 6, when you had ASA 50 film?? They burn baby burn! Lost six wonderful rolls doing that. Two weeks ago BOTH of my cameras fell from the top of my pickup truck to the asphalt. Ever had that happen yet?? I almost cried, yet remarkably the both still worked. That is Nikon for you. The N-80 is not built like the F-5 and F-100. You can drive nails with the F-5. Anyway, I hope you do not feel too bad any longer. Anybody else care to share their bad day stories?? Go ahead, make my day!
