My brother was traveling in Asia last year and was having troubles with his camera. I think the auto-focus stopped working on his lens for some reason. Not totally sure, but the point is that he was not getting very good results with his camera and he wanted to get some good shots when he was at the top of some volcano in Indonesia at sunrise and he borrowed someone else's camera and used it with his own memory card. He said that after he put the memory card back in his own camera it wouldn't even turn on.
I have heard before that that is something that you shouldn't do, and I think my brother even knew that but I've never known why. Anyone care to enlighten me? Also is this something that is fixable?
I haven't seen my brother yet since he got home so I haven't had a chance to look at the camera myself, but I was wondering if there is any advice I should give him. I told him to bring it into a camera shop but I don't think he has gotten around to it yet.
