Take Care When Transferring Images

SUMMARY: Watch out for this trap when transferring images from your digital camera to your computer.
 
When you transfer images from your digital camera to your PC, take great care in that you do not overwrite images currently on your PC.

In most instances where one transfers images from a camera to a PC, the same filenames are used when you transfer different sets of files. Thus, you see that if you don't change the image filenames on your computer, or if you don't make sure you transfer images to different PC directories, your photos on your PC can be overwritten by accident.
