> you take fewer photos but more of them are usable

I need to take more photos of the same scene but from different angles — higher, lower, closer, … work the scene.

How will limited film shots help (force) me to do that?

> look at a scene and easily be within a half stop just guessing

SLR & DSLR meter exposure: what's the advantage of guessing?

(The blog post author apparently used a light meter smartphone app.)

> keep/cull ratio

Seems like I take fewer photos and keep more of them because a) I don't feel a need to keep making the same photos b) I've figured out how to make many of the photos I like to make.

> Sure you can do the same digitally, but you're not forced to do so

White balance & "M" at lowest-ISO & raw & don't try to preview / edit on camera.
