I can relate. I suspect I press the shutter a little more frequently with
my DSLR as opposed to a film camera. A combination of knowing that I won't
run out of film and that I can see the results instantly and reshoot if
needed.
I'm in the mid-9000 count range after getting it in February 2004.
Keeper-rate is about the same. However the ease of post exposure cropping
sans-scanner means in the end I may have a few more keepers.

On the other hand, the I recently did a shoot. With film I would have
shot one 24x roll and expected to give the client 20 good proofs. With
digital I shot 55x and got about 20 good proofs. When it costs next to
nothing I am not so careful about when to push the button. BTW, if I was
like many of the folks say they are here I would have shot 500x, but I
expect I would still have gotten 20 good proofs.
The Graphic is a great way to learn to shoot just what you want, one 4x5
sheet for the money, and one just-in-case. Cost about $10 a pair, that
makes me careful.
