The "Don't you hate it when---------?" Thread.

Don't you hate when you go out on a shoot and the only card you take is nearly full of images you haven't uploaded to you computer yet?

...and your battery is almost dead.

^^^^^

Been there, done that

Don't you hate it when your friend pulls your sd card out of your camera just a second to soon, deleting
every single of the 2500 pictures you took that day....


And don't you hate it when you are (I **** you not) seeing the most amazing sunset in the world, and
you want to make a picture, and your battery is dead.... (well, luckily I saw it with my eyes... still blows
I couldn't capture it...)

Ouch!!

You ask someone if you can take some pictures, they agree, make your way over there, ask them a few questions for a story, take down notes ... then when you get out your camera and they refuse to have their picture taken.

^^^^^^
Having worked for a newspaper for 17 years,, I can once again say,, been there, done that.. Bloody frustrating especially if you've driven for an hour in city traffic.

Don't you hate when you look to the left side of the screen and see that title?!

If not, rest assured, you should!

Now come on Harry,, this has been discussed in various threads around POTN..

Please, please don't remind me

I don't know what you did (I must have missed the thread). But they should either ban you or fix it. That is just cruel and unusual!

I won't repeat what I wrote for fear of more reprisals from the Title Fairy, but at the time I thought it was funny.. It came up in the OLDER Photographer's Thread.. And no, I wasn't banned.. Banning may have been kinder:o

Don't you hate it when you just spent a half hour to drive to the location of the shoot, another 15 minutes circling to find a place to park, you walk from your car to the shoot location, and then discover you have full/no CF in your camera or bag?

DYHIW You know you will have a shooting opportunity the following day, so you get everything packed and ready to go, but you decide you need a fully charged battery, so you put it on the charger over night. In the morning, you are all set to go, get you things and off the shoot, but the camera won't turn on. That is when you remember that you left the battery on the charger!

I went back and read that thread.. I didn't even think it was that bad. But yes, banning would have been kinder.

How do you shoot 2500 shots a day? what is the percentage of keepers.
