No spray and pray for the film shooter. When I last shot film, my primary camera was a Hasselblad with a 12 exp. back. I find with digital I shoot more, but not near as many as most I know.

No one wants all your photos, even your ex, current spouse, kids, nephews, grandkids, etc. Can you imagine viewing 5-10K images? 25K? 250K? Would take way past my boredom point..... I think the solution is to put everything on paper, then light the pyre at the appropriate time. While you bless this earth with your presence, and desire to keep your old images, backup often, and with current technology.... But don?t fool yourself...... your kids don?t care/have the time. Frank Filippone Red735i at earthlink.net I now have the majority of our family photos, and most are digital, and one day my children and grandchildren will want to see them. _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
