You cant be serious. If a photographer gets even a couple good sellable shots per 24 exposure roll, he's doing very well. You actually expect to get 22 really good sellable shots per 24 exposure roll? That absurd in my honest opinion....

At the moment, like I mentioned, I am getting probably 18 salable images from a roll of 24 exposure film. Of those, probably 4 of the rejects are due to eyes closing/subject moving etc. The two remaining are usually rejects due to being underexposed, or out of focus etc. Even though the bulk of the "rejects" are usually due to the "subject did something the photographer has no control over", I still consider this my fault as I should be able to "predict" or at least "anticipate" these things, and make allowances for it. I still stand by my original goal - when I get to consistentantly producing 22 salable shots per 24 roll, I will be "happy" to some degree with my own competency level. But until then, I still think, basically that I'm not worthy of people's $$$$.... tan. ----- Original Message ----- From: "graywolf" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, December 31, 2003 11:26 AM Subject: Re: Just one tip > Maybe I should clarify this.
