we’ve saved a bit of money with this D70 i’m sure

i just realized that you can get the total # of shutter releases for the camera in your exif data! i looked at the infor for the last digital i posted to flickr and i see it’s over 13000 shutter releases. i approximated that it would have been about $3k in film and developing if i would have taken just as many shots. granted being digital is conducive to making one take a lot more shots, but still…

jolly good show.

    I don’t think I would’ve ever really gotten into photography if it wasn’t for having a (couple of) digital camera(s). Now that I can print ONLY what I want to, I save a ton of money. :)

    exaaactly

    which is why sometimes i puzzle myself with my fascination with film :D

    nah really i recognize that (at least now) there are things i can get with film that i either don’t have the skill, or time, to pick up in digital (funny to actually be saying that but it’s somewhat true).
