A Top Tip - before Formatting / Deleting any card (s) in the camera, view the images to make sure you have actual downloaded them on to your laptop/PC. Canon EOS software downloads all new images automatically.
Last night (11th Sept) I did, and could not remember seeing the images on the computer, so I had to check before deleting and venturing out.
I had downloaded the images but hadn't viewed them.
Two reasons:-
1) The cameras timeline - the date changes at midnight, so the computer had saved them into the folder for the 26th August (and the actual Aurora photographs had saved in the 27th August folder). School boy error!!
2) The file for the 26th, had heather & moorland shots, and I hadn't viewed them all.
These are a series of test shots I did from the Whitby's St Mary's headland before venturing to Runswick. With hindsight maybe I should of stayed there, as by the time we got to Runswick the show was over!
