Well, making money isn't the #1 priority for everyone. It takes work
to make money with one's photography, and some times it's just too
much work.

Well, at least I use that as a justification :-)

I have to say though, in terms of # of frames, I definitely shoot more
frames with the M9 and the E-3, especially on the E-3 for taiko and
other events. It would be prohibitive and silly to shoot that many
frames on film, unless one is a professional making real money.

For the film shots though, the incremental cost really isn't much
since I process my own B&W
