I\'m not implying this about you so dont take it like that.
BUT, I do disagree with that statement. With what I see out there I think digital has allowed a lot of people to turn out a lot of crap but more quickly and cheaply. They can call themselves a professional but if they dont have the skill it doesn\'t matter what camera is in their hand. Obviously technology has helped somewhat. It has not helped to the degree it can take someone with limited experience and have them turn out an image comparable to a skilled photographer.
The \"shoot, dont like, delete\" scenario you mention may work with static subjects but try to shoot something like sports, concerts, weddings, etc and you better be able to nail it first time or adjust very quickly. Otherwise you are not going to get the job done.
