Did You Find a Camera? Or Did You Lose a Camera?

I lost my camera

Describe the Camera, Such as Brand/Model/Color.

I don't know what brand the camera was -- I know stupid -- but I have like four or five memory cards in the case. It is a black case, and I will give a large reward for the memory cards. I don't care about the camera being returned.

Does the Camera Have Any Identifying Marks?

It is silver and is 12.2 megapixels. It has all of my kids' photos, and I don't have copies of most of them.

How Should the Camera's Owner / Finder Contact You?

Phone: (865) 456-5938 or (865) 360-2127

When Approximately Was the Camera Found / Lost?

Oct. 29, 2010

Where Exactly Was the Camera Found / Lost?

It was lost in Kodak, Tenn., USA. I live on Mutton Hollow Road, and it would have fallen off my car roof, as we were driving from there to Sevierville, Tenn. We took Highway 139. We stopped by Food City, taking Brian Road, and we bought gas.

We found my son's shoe that I left on top of the car, too, so I think someone would have found the camera. I have walked near where I think it was lost and can't find it.

Lessons Learned

  • Always keep copies of your pictures

Kyle Schurman, Digital Cameras Guide, says:

Don't feel bad about not knowing the brand and model of your camera -- it happens more than you'd think! It is a good idea to have that type of information written down somewhere, just in case it is lost. I hope someone finds your camera for you!
