Hi Dan,

And at what level of assignments do you shoot?

I'm sure you might have a slightly different opion about film when returning 
from a 6 week assignment and 1200 rolls of Tri-x to soup, contact and edit! 
Then make the selected 8X10's! :-) And bigger! :-) No I'm not kidding as it 
used to be a regular aprt of my daily day to day life.

Or even a one day shoot where you've shot 65 rolls documenting a major ship 
building operation?

I wouldn't want you to asume I'm complaing, however it does make for a 
slightly different perspective..... film to digital.

And I did that for several decades about North America and the world. Damn 
it was great fun and aventure though! :-)

cheers,
Dr. ted
