Do you carry your manual with you?

Does anyone here actually carry the manual for their camera with them?

I don't anymore, but I used too all the time. Back when I first learn the camera, I was always looking in the manual.

No, but there are the odd times when I wish I had.

I have my camera for a couple of years, and for the most part I know the camera itself, but I still carry the manual. Never know when I may need it. Heck, I may be stuck out in the middle of no where and may need it to start a fire.

For casual shooting, no. If I'm on a big "assignment", you bet.

The manuals are small enough that I always have it somewhere in my camera bag.
Even though I sometimes forget that I have it in the bag, since I seldom use it:)

I keep mine in the bag with the rest of the gear. I figure if the camera goes inop I have some blank pages in the manual I could sketch on... :rofl:
