Depends on a few things. I might check to see the shot wasn't a complete failure, but I may not have time, nor will I be inclined to cull out marginally bad pictures, because I am out having fun, and things are happening all around me all the time. I am not, nor do I want to be in critic/edit mode at all times. Even when I am, the LED display won't do justice to the final result. So if I take 2 pix of the same thing very close together, I'll probably need to see them in all their glory to judge which is best. Another reason I think my model applies more than yours: I think the results most people get from their photography skills is abysmal. And they know it too. If, currently, they won't take the time to compose a decent picture, why would they take the time to cull bad ones in the field. So if you do your culling afterwards, like I think most people do, then a cheap, large capacity in-the-field storage system can go a long way towards improving your odds of having a few keepers.
This is my last post on N-hand for today. It's all so blue sky, anyway. I have been expressing what my requirements are, and assuming others have the same requirements. I may be wrong about the others. Certainly, I would be wrong in assuming your requirements are the same as mine. So be it. |
