Go through all the menus and work out what everything does. Set up my menu so you have frequently used menus at the touch of a button and also set up a function button to give direct access to my menu.
I always try and use as much of the card as possible therefore not just wearing out a small part of the card.
I think they're talking about once you've used the card, and taken the images off, rather than before first use?
Look back through Thom Hogan's site and you'll find him warning people to brush up their hand holding techniques or use faster shutter speeds when 12mp sensors were introduced because they were less forgiving!Have you ever found that to be the case yourself, as I haven't, even using f1.4 lenses....... Also, I had seen it stated that when using a D8xx body you had to be extra careful again over other FX bodies due to the 36mp, again I found no difference when changing from the D750 to the D810, my photos were still s***.!
I think the biggest problem with the D8xx range, was that people were jumping from the 12mp D700 to the 36mp D800/E and then were finding the cameras less forgiving...... I was used to shooting with 16mp before moving to the 24mp D750 and found it a non issue for me.
That's the problem with the internet, it makes there seem more problems than there actually are. I think it's because you hear about them whereas there would have always been a few problem cameras/electrical goods. There will always be a few cameras out the thousands they sell that will have problems. If there is an error rate of 0.1% (1 in 1,000) or 0.01% (1 in 10,000) that's not a huge error but they are selling thousands of cameras. With the internet you hear about that one in a thousand or ten thousand faulty camera.
The manual (page 473) seems to say card err is a card fault rather than camera fault. If there was no (-E-) the camera recognised there was a card inserted but was having problems writing to that card. Have you since done a two button card format? Is it working again?
As I said it's not really that it's harder per se, it's just that DOF is more shallow and so it shows up small inaccuracies more.Have you ever found that to be the case yourself, as I haven't, even using f1.4 lenses.......

Mum dressed her in her first dungarees today and I just had to get the picture gear out! She wasn't playing ball really and mum was too busy getting the roast ready so it didn't last long. Could I get the hairbrush off her in the second one?!
Maybe a chocolate biscuit...Awwwww! Nothing better than a chocolate dog
Ha ha... depends on what time of day..... definitely a choccy bic first thing in the morning rather than a slathery slimy tongue on the end of a choccy dog in your face
