Nak tanya sikit la... Do you guys (gals) often meddle with the Drive Modes (ie single shot, continuous shots etc) ? For example when you go street photography or snapping photo of kids, pets etc... do you usually use continuous shots ?
Im coming from film photography background still finding it "uncomfortable" to use multiple shots... feel like "alahai, sayang nya nak buang filem negatif" ... that is why I usually use just the "single shot mode".
Also, when you shoot say street photography or pets/children... usually how many shots do you take for one scene ?

I feel that Im at this junction of keeping to the old school culture of "always shooting in single mode" (and not filling up my MemoryStick quickly) and being more courageous and explore "multiple/continuous shots" style... Ive tried shooting kids... and somehow Im not getting the desired expression/attitude/pose that I usually see from others beautiful photos.
