How many frames?

Consett, North of England - February 2008

Think i'll be using the F3 again. I'm seriously becoming more and more impressed with that 35mm camera. At the moment i'm going through a tight shooting evaluation, as i commented about a couple of posts ago, and this camera seems to be perfect for shooting thoughtfully.

No motordrive. Simple really, but it's definitely a factor in being a more controlled snapper. I can understand why many pro photographers like Leica rangefinder cameras. Quiet, small and not motordrive to burn through a film in twenty seconds. Exactly how many frames do you need to shoot to capture a moment in time? One? Three? twenty four?
