That's my practice, Bill.  I don't think I've ever had a spare CF card.  I do have spare SD cards.

So do you mean you have but one card and use it exclusively?

I was concerned about wear and tear on the card connectors inside the camera. 
I've come across a number of bodies on evilBay where one or more of the CF pins 
were bent over, and there's no fix to that.

For me just the opposite. When I got my first digital camera, I
immediately got a card reader, as a matter of convenience. I just
left the reader hooked to my computer and life was and still is
good. And I don't trust wireless for downloads.


I use the cable all the time as it's more convenient. What I would
REALLY like to see would be a bluetooth adapter for the camera,
which would be even more convenient.

As I was transferring images from my Olympus E-1 to my computer, I
wondered how many of today's digital photographers have ever used a
transfer cable. The modern SD cards and the like are taken for
granted. But, for some of us, with large, slow cards, this is how it's
done.
