I never consider shooting less, I just do not see how to take +5x the number 
of shots I take without them all being binned ;-) Film is/was different to 
digital, of course you do not want to run out.

If you go to a location, country, whatever the situation and you're not 
likely ever to go again in your life? And you are a photographer, amateur or 
professional? Why would you ever consider shooting less?
Obviously if you only have a couple of rolls of film might be a 
consideration?

But let's say the location is the CONGO on a safari? Wouldn't you take a 100 
rolls or close to that? WHY?  Well you just never know what will, might or 
could happen and you've only taken a few rolls because "You don't intend on
taking????   "TOO MANY FRAMES??" Oh well to each his own I suppose!

TRUST ME? You can never have "TOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH FILM!"
