On the average day with no shoots planned. How many times on average to you guys snap a picture... and how many do you ultimately end up deleting?

I'm curious to know because sometimes I think I'm not shooting enough quantity and may be missing a lot.

I have a point and shoot 6mp that I don't carry with me 'cause it just doesn't compare to my bulky Nikon D80. I guess I'm starting to think...what can it hurt?

100 to 150 shots a weekday; 250 to 300 on weekends. I keep every shot I take. Not sure why, but I don't delete even the worst ones.

Last year was the first year I had my digital camera. In total I took 3500 photos (about 10 a day). This year I am already up to 8500 (about 25 a day)

I;m not shooting as much lately, even with my new 40D and XT-IR.
But I do recall one day in Hawaii, I actually shot 1000 pix!!

I used to do that until recently. Even half a terabyte fills up fast. Now I use Lightroom to import and organize all my RAW files, and I reject (and delete) plenty of shots from a single session. My sanity is restored. :/

I need my sanity back too. Does lightroom have a better workflow than Bridge?

I think so. I gave up Bridge to use Lightroom.
