I agree with this argument. Everyone I have talked to who owns digital says they shoot more now than they ever did with film. They experiment more and the results show it... It's an argument in favour of digital that often gets overlooked. The down side that gets overlooked is the amount of time needed to tweak and file all the digital images. Vic
Precisely. I have taken over 600 shots in my istD in the last month. I would never have taken that many on film unless there was a special occasion or something. I have gotten some shots of the family which are absolutely stunning and which I would have missed were I using film because I would not have had the camera in my hand so often. Working this way you can capture moments you would have missed using your normal film techniques, but you have to be much more determined to throw away shots which don't work. With film I tended to keep even slightly blurred shots of the kids because they were records of a moment/mood/expression. Some of these shots alone mean the camera has already paid for itself to me.
