It's only 7 rolls of film. I have found that when I'm on a photographic trip I tend to shoot about 5 rolls a day on average, but (as I think Godfrey mentioned) that's a 12 hour day.
Journalists that I have heard talk about it usually seem to reckon on about 6 rolls a day when they're covering an event. David Hurn in one of his books talks about ordering 1000 rolls of film for a year. Presumably he doesn't shoot every day. If you're in a fast-moving situation and you want to cover it adequately it's pretty easy to shoot a roll of film in a minute to get one shot. It's all part of shooting round the subject. -- Cheers, Bob > -----Original Message----- > From: Shel Belinkoff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 25 August 2005 17:48 > To: pentax-discuss@pdml.net > Subject: Re: CR-V3 rechargeables > > Sheesh! 250 exposures a day is a lot.
