I checked my main PC earlier today and found I had over 6.4GB of photos on it while my lappy has 1.4GB totallint 880 photographs, the vast majority are from my Panasonic FZ20 and a lot of them just holding down the shutter release and taking multiple images.

With my film camera I would never have done this, each pic would be carefully done as a single shot. So I was wondering how has digital changed your photography?

its has infuriated me, as people throw tons of bad quality photographs at you while your on the internet, myspace, or just in general.

fools need to pay for their film again an i would be a lot happier

"hold the button down until you get a good one"



I imagine thats how is for a lot of people. I can be care-free with the shutter button, as I am conscious that it costs nothing but memory space.

My camera is always in TakeLotsOfPhotosAsFastAsYouCan mode - because all of the abilities of my camera do one thing: let me get a great shot, not merely a good shot, or an ok shot, for a higher percentage of the time I use it - thats what its there for

I do agree with Red there though, 99% of digi pics are crap that you find on the web. I generally only upload the decent ones - itd be painful to do otherwise, as 8MP camera = big pics, and DSL is slooooooow on the upstream

Digital photography is a godsend for sports work. Being able to shoot 3 fps without needing to change rolls every 36 shots is wonderful!

Well for me its changed how I take photos a lot, before I had a film camera and well I basically never took any photos.  I dont even have any of the 3 years I was at uni cause I just never even thought of using it.  It was too expensive to get film developed, and having to wait to see if youd got the results you wanted.  Now its all instant, doesnt cost anything its made it so much more accessible for everyone.
