How does usage (in number of images taken daily) of a digital camera compare
to usage of a film camera? I suspect that simply by the ease of seeing the
results and lack of film to process, even a hobby photographer would take
many more images with a digital camera even after the 'novelty' of a new
method of taking pictures has gone. Would this increase in numbers of images
taken over say five years, be the equivalent use of a film camera over ten?
Regardless of technological improvements over a five year period, could
digitals have done twice the workload in this time?
I can't speak for everyone else, but I shoot about as many frames per week with my digital cameras as I used to with my film cameras. It just costs me less. ;-)
