It all depends; and again: it all depends. I've certainly shot a full day of 4x5's and come home with a dozen shots and considered that a lot, and a lot of work. I've easily spent half a day on one shot numerous times. I've also done an aerial shoot and in 45min of shooting taken 25 rolls of 220 on 645 in addition to 6 rolls of 35mm. That's being really busy in a small Cessna, even when half the 220 was preloaded. In Cuba this time I took 2500 in two weeks, and there was not pressure to take or not to take. In Kenya a couple of years ago it was 20,000 in 10 days, with 95% of the shooting during a couple of hours after sunrise and a couple more before sunset. If anything, I should have taken more. Almost everyone was taken Single Shot. In the end, the purpose and the circumstances dictate what and how you shoot. Processing, editing and other stuff doesn't enter into it unless you have to get one shot and IMMEDIATELY send it off somewhere. Tina is shooting for work. She has to decide how much and what is possible and advantageous for her market. She knows. We don't. She's posting her quick 'proofs' to get a bit of feedback and feed our desires to see Cuba through her eyes. These are not final files for display, and we should be happy for whatever she lets us in on. Go Tina!
