Fenrus, you watch as much Futurama as I do!

I did something similar to that. This was before I had a digital camera and was using a 35mm with drop-in loading film.
I used the camera all day but was confused as to why it wasn't showing how many pictures I had taken and how many I had left.
I get home to find out I had loaded the film upside down and had now lost all the "pictures" I had taken at the zoo.

When I went to Niagara Falls when I was 12 I took a whole roll of (presumably) perfectly good pictures, then dropped the roll of film somewhere between the boat and the bus. I went home with exactly one picture of the falls, taken from the window of the bus, and some postcards.

What was the 'Not Always Right' story....a customer actually thought the color of the cam made it take pix faster

I've got that beat.
When my parents took a trip to Yosemite, my mom dropped the camera over a waterfall. They had to run out and buy some disposable cameras for the rest of the trip.

Related, but slightly off-topic, are the people who feel that a better camera automatically produces better photos. I've been using my S2 IS for a while and am still producing better photos than almost everyone in my family (except for the professional photographer) who all have the most recent models. I guess technology's no replacement for learning how to do things.

Heck, one of my best photos was taken with my $40 Vivitar point-n-shoot film camera. I'm sure my $600 Nikon would do just as nice of a job, but I didn't have the Nikon at the time.

I'd thank you for illustrating my point, but I'm too busy giggling at your avatar.

The camera was pink. They always want PINK.

Drives me nuts.

heaven forbid a holiday is coming and they can't buy a pink camera.
