A snap meant money - developing and then printing. With digital, the cost part has receded and I can now afford extra shots just to nail what I want. The only time I use burst mode is when there is wind and I am not sure that the flowers will be in focus when I press the button. Another time when a lot of trial and error is required when shooting with fully manual lenses. Getting the optimal (forget perfect) exposure takes quite a few trials.Yes I do shoot at least four or five times more than needed, but it is better to throw away those bad shots, rather than lament on missing them. And then there are times, when just for the heck of it I shoot street scenes.</blockquote>
