When we had our film camera, we converted the photos taken out of it as a printout or album. But in recent days we are using a digital camera, DSLR or cameras in mobile phones, and capturing hundreds of photos within an hour. However, it is difficult to store the captured moments in single storage for a longer time and it is also not secure. It is easily erasable and we may lose the photos that are captured. So are you facing an issue in storing your best moments that you have captured??? Don’t worry.
