Re: Cameras are Volatile

My team had somebody donate a camera of slightly higher quality than the one given to us. I think the camera donation was a good thing, and I was glad that Google gave them to FIRST; however, they are difficult to use in the sense that if you do not know about how it operates (i.e. you take out the batteries and lose the pictures) you can lose a lot of valuable team photographs, which is certainly a problem. I was really most pleased with the gesture, because it gave teams that may not normally document an easy option to do so, which is always nice to have. I merely wish that some of the inherent drawbacks could have been fixed somehow, so that people would not lose all of their hard work. I mean to cause no controversy or problems, and certainly mean no disrespect to a generous sponser. Thank you for hearing me out.
