But, these are not from the same person. We do probably take many, many more photos in digital (I know I do) but I don't know if the quantity for professionals has changed. They probably took lots and lots of shots and fliped through them to find the right expression/moment even when they used film. The main expense for professionals has probably shifted from film stock to camera body/lens.
