Afraid of losing your camera? Want to increase the chances of getting it back? The Pictorial Guide (funny, but might very well work!)

Andrew McDonald - A Pictorial Guide to avoiding Camera Loss

“Have you lost your camera recently? Mislaid it somewhere in a national park? Left it in a taxi? Dropped it in the gorilla pit? Anyone can be a victim of the thoughtlessness and/or sleepiness that can lead to Camera Loss.

‘How can I prevent Camera Loss?’ I hear you ask, wishing I’d get to the point. Well, you can’t prevent cameras from getting lost, but you can do something so your camera can be found very soon after it has vanished.

All you have to do is take some photos – which you never delete from your camera – so when someone finds your camera at the bottom of the gorilla pit they are able to locate you and return the lost property to its rightful owner.

To illustrate just how you can safeguard your camera from the crippling effects of Camera Loss, here are the pics that I always keep on my camera.

This had me cracking up…

Heck I know if I found a camera with this kind of thing on it I’d go out of my way to return it (I’d try anyway [insert story of the GPS unit I found during a walk and returned here and/or story of a signed copy of a book meant as a special gift I found and returned to the author so he could, after 13 years, finish the book’s journey here] but this level of personality and humor, well… lol )
