Thanks... that was what I was afraid of. As some of you know I do some video work and storage is a big issue in the camera. most of my larger cameras use mini DV. BETACAM or DVC-PRO... but all that is going away in favor or memory storage devices. Big concern.. as with tape I shoot injest the tape into the edit bay. toss tape on storage shelf and have the orig. saved on tape and .... the edited version can also be saved back to tape as well as saved on the network attached storage units. I fear in the future having memory card crap out ! Ed Sharpe --- _www.smecc.org_ (http://www.smecc.org) In a message dated 12/23/2012 11:00:31 A.M.
