Yes. Although I think the "shoot everything in sight" digital mindset is a temporary thing. I now shoot about the same as I do with film. I've gone out for walkarounds with the *istD and returned without exposing a single frame -- or I should say -- without recording a single image. However, since I don't pay for film, I will tend to experiment more with digital. That's a good thing. And I confess to having posted a few things that were more on the order of experiments than work of which I was proud. But sometimes input on those experiments is a good thing, and it sometimes leads to interesting conversations here and on other venues. > > Again, I don't know the answers to all these questions, but I did want to > share what may be some valid observations. > Duly noted and appreciated.
