Good idea! Maybe they can include a feature that throws up these words on the LCD screen: "Firmware update failed - Camera bricked" That will get the heart racing, which is bound to be good for us. Or not.

Clearly a man hoping to die with his Pentax in his hand.

My most recent senior moment was whilst talking to friend, I was frantically searching for my iphone. I found it eventually.....pressed to my ear.

Made me laugh. I do that with my glasses all the time.

Now that I’m using my phone for work I “lose” my Bluetooth earpiece in my ear at least once a day

I can think of worse ways to go. Come to think of it, I can think of better ways too.
