I am not talking keepers, I am talking "Total" shot...

I have had my Panasonic G3 for 6 weeks, and I am averaging 383 a week (19,916 a year

P100-0001 to P102-0298

I can believe it though. I guess being "Retired" helps to keep this number high (to me anyway).

I took close to 300 at an Antique Car and Bike show this weekend... (But it added 600 to the count I guess)
I shot RW2/JPG because the lighting was very harsh and I wanted to make sure I had an option in Post.

an embarassingly high number sometimes 1000 to 1500 a week , many are test shots and fooling around at home but i can easily shoot 250 in a day

WoW! Now I'm embarrassed to say how many a week I take.

I'd say about 300 a week, unfortunately most of them go directly to the trash bucket....

Heard That... Oh, but when a keeper shows up.... It was worth it, after all...

Everything is so easy now that ones ends up by being picky, and only the great ones survive....

I shot probably close to 300 on slow weeks and closer to the 1000 on busy weeks. I tend to keep most of what I shot in hopes that I can remember and go back to the subject or get better at PP to try and fix what can be fixed.

I was looking through some early digital images and I absolutely developed them with too much contrast and sharpening....

Over the last few weeks I've taken so many photos that I don't have enough time to process them.

Depends on the week. Sometimes none, sometimes hundreds.
Yesterday I went to the Zoo and shot 500+ pics for my website.

I think I still use quite a bit of contrast. And I think I over-process a few images. But I have to screw up to learn how not to do things.

I really want to do a shutter count on my E-P1 considering I've taken at least 2,000 photos in the past 2 months.
