And I forgot to mention - during our vacations, I transfer the photos to my iPad on a daily basis. For one thing, it's a lot easier to show the photos around to the group because it's easier to see on an iPad, and I like that I have a backup already made before I even come home.
That being said, I can't say I have photos that are priceless. My primary use of my photos is for scrapbooking purposes. I don't do backups during vacation out of fear about losing precious memories - I do this out of a sense of 'why not - it's not that big a deal' And I have separate media cards for each trip because it's easier to keep track of the photos than with the messy file system I have on my computer and EHD's. LOL
Like the floppy disks, VHS tapes, photos, and EHD's that have failed me, I know the media cards are not flawless. I wonder how long you can safely store photos on media cards. Only time will tell.
