Here's a quick question before I head out the door for the morning. Hopefully I'll see lots of posts when I return...
What percentage of the shots you capture do you actually keep?
Back in the days of film I suspect it was higher than in today's digital world.
On film I probably kept (or at least considered good) about 30%
When it comes to digital that percentage is much lower (presumably because you take more shots)
As an example, yesterday I went for a walk by the river and took 96 exposures. After reviewing them last night I ended up keeping 12.
I suspect that studio percentages are much higher as well, since you are working with a more controlled environment.
I suppose that the percentage would also vary depending on how picky you are about what you save or discard.
Your thoughts?
