        It was a cousin’s wedding. Fortunately I had two cards, filled the first and the second one bit the dust. The ceremony survived but most of the reception pictures are lost. Not the worst case but they were not happy with me. Mem cards were a lot smaller back then.

      Dual memory card camera. Copy after each shoot onto two different storage devices. (Eg laptop and external drive).
