Pretty weird behavior..................................

Took a picture yesterday, tried to copy it to HDD and it disappeared without
trace.

Took another picture today and checked the boxes so it was copied to folder
with a number added to the name.

Today; opened file on the camera and it displays the picture that went
missing yesterday - but any attempt to save it saves a copy of todays
picture.

I tried everything I could think of, and still can't figure out the location
of the ghost image I thought I'd lost.

Its a fairly old camera that probably didn't anticipate the smallest
capacity SD card you can buy nowadays - I'll try it without and see if its
still confused.

PS: Now its decided to output .AVI files, so I have to download an app to
open them.
