Lotsa Pixels

Everyone likes a good photo, right?

Hey buddy. It's me, your SD card. I was hoping we could have a little chat about something. You see, I know you're enjoying your new PENTAX camera, but maybe you could, you know, take a little break occasionally.

Now, don't get me wrong! I love our photography trips as much as you do! Taking pictures of the cats, snapping a shot of every sandwich you ever eat for your food blog, documenting how much whiter your teeth look everyday with those new strips you're using - that's so much fun.

But these pictures, they gotta be 16 megapixel quality! That's just a bit rich, you know? I mean, how would you like it if my favorite hobby required you to eat 16 burritos a day? I mean, sure, at first it'd be awesome, but after a while, you'd be begging for a break, or at least a salad.

So, why don't we take a little breather from all these thick, high-quality pics for a little while, okay? Thanks!
