prints after the ceromony.

Pros used multiple bodies and assistants to reload. When my son graduated from
high shool in the early nineties, a film shooter shot each kid getting his
diploma. He had three cameras and a nimble fingered assistant.

Usually the higher the speed, the greater the current draw, (that seems
to be an immutable law, though I can't remember why at the moment), so
either you risk being between cards when that once in a lifetime image
happens or batteries...

Relax, Brendan, I'm just mocking you.
Your arguments have been the same dismissive whining that's plagued every step
of
technological progress - "but what was so hard about the way we *used* to do

It's little more than a tantrum about change.

OTOH, just calling something technological progress don't necessarily
make it so; not if it means I got to do more work to
I think that the problem isn't there. It IS a technological progress.
On a strict technological point of view, it sure is.
Now in broader sense of the term, is a progress. That is a totally

They used three cameras and an assistant to reload them, so they always had a
loaded camera in their hands. They also only took one shot of each person. The
prints were usually done at an over-night lab and mailed to the customer the
next day.
Most of the immediate print stuff, often call Cabar

And you're right, I haven't done any events where I

me. I do product shots and the occassional events,
parties and corporate stuff. I like selling my time,

Maybe not much, but they got paid somehow ... training, access to the
darkroom, second hand equipment ... moving up to shooting assistant
handling paid assignments.
Or maybe even minimum wage - back when minimum wage actually
