More scanning time.

The first full year (naught zero) after I quit my day job and switched to
slides I took 659 rolls. That was a learning year (lots of travel and
workshops). Then 4-500/year for 3 years, then 150/year since. Now if I do
get a digital camera soon (prolly will), then there will be another learning
year.

I never really thought much about the cost of film & developing, as it was a
necessity. But I do think about the time to edit them. So I'm not sure
I'll really have a huge increase when they're digital images. Maybe more
bracketing, just to be sure.

What have others found? When you switched to digital, did you greatly
increase the number of pictures per year?
