It's unusual to get as long and as in-depth an article as this on a current photographer so f11 is to be commended
Someone however has got his maths wrong. Maris is quoted as saying that he shot 10,000 negatives in his first year of photography with a 35mm camera and that was only 1 36 frame roll a day. I make that to be about 1,300 negatives
So was it about 7.5 rolls a day which is absolutely phenomenal both in shooting and processing terms or should the quote have been 1,000 negatives which is still no mean feat

You are quite right. It was maths. Despite this I then managed to get the second part right which is that this is shooting a little over 7.5 cassettes a day. Taking and processing over 7.5 rolls a day is really phenomenal and might be a record unless someone here has done more ?:confused:36 x 365 = 13,140.
I think you lost a decimal point.

http://www.f11magazine.com/ features me in their latest issue. This is an unexpected step for a magazine based essentially on digital content. The editor Tim Steele assures me that the elegant but virtual pages of f11 can accommodate even a trenchant promoter of pictures made exclusively out of light-sensitive materials.
36 exposures/day x 365 days/year = 13,140
36 exposures = 1 roll, not 7.5 rolls
