Well,, D800 is now 2 years old,,, 10's of thousands of pictures,, I should check my shutter count,, my guess is
maybe 60K,, not sure,, I am not shutter happy,, too much film luggage, but I tend to frame, set settings,
and shoot,, adjust a bit composition maybe take 2-3 more,, but not like burst shoottttttt

I'll go out with my nephew who is getting to be quite the photographer, but he is like bursttttttttt

I'll come home with 80 shots to 100,, and he will have like 300 shots for a 2 hour shoot,, I shoot
that many maybe in a whole day of shooting of awesome location,,

just a habit, he never shot film, so does not have that built in got to get the right shot mentality.

course, he does get the right shot,, and well a whole lot more extra shots.

I too shoot like my camera is loaded with film and sometimes it is. I don't think I will be able to change. I am always surprised by my son's trigger finger. He doesn't do burst but within the first hour of a hike he has 300 shots and an exhausted battery.

well,, I shoot manual,, and often even manual focus,, so my battery last a long time, I find that live view eats my batteries up..
