I have an anecdote, I believe from Herbert Keppler's column in Modern Photography from the early 1980s. A newspaper sports editor was complaining to him about the work of his photographers. He said, "Back when they carried Graflex 4x5s, I could send a guy to a game with 5 plates of film and he would come back with 5 usable shots. Now with motorized 35mm cameras, they shoot several rolls at a time and often come back without a single usable shot."
