If one is self critical and willing to be taught by one's own mistakes, digital allows more than the number of frames many full time film shooters exposed per year to be shot every month. I know PJs who never shot more than 1,000 frames of film in a month, and often shot less, who now routinely shoot more than 10,000 frames every single month. As far as beginners go, it's so much better to have EXIF info recorded every press of the shutter without having to pull out a pen and pad to write it all down. | |
