I use a terabyte drive for my photos with 1/3 of the space already used. But I'm also getting better about keeping only what I want. The 60,000 plus that I have is after deleting and doesn't include all the non-digital SLR stuff from years back. I also shoot one-handed while holding branches, etc. out of the way (I shoot a lot of wildlife photos, mostly birds). One-handed does not include the telephoto lens, tho. Automatic is nice but I often shoot with manual focus (which means both hands on). I want to be sure that, at a distance, the focus is on the right spot. And I really do love raw. Spend no time with Photoshop on my photos (unless I'm doing some graphics). I use iPhoto. MATT MARINER BROZE wrote: >So does my brother, but he takes a lot less photos than I do.
