15 frames on 645 or 12 on 6x6 is perfect for a session. 36 shots on 35mm can be a little much, sometimes it takes me weeks to get through a roll. I still prefer 36 frames per roll over 24 though.

10 6x7 on a 120 roll. Enough to explore a subject and have different angles and still develop for specific contrast conditions.

I do not really care about how many frames are on a roll.

I only care about how many good images I get on a roll.

Yes. I am not happy until I know I have at least one good image.

I usually go thru 36 in less than 1/2 hour, just shooting details in the street.

I prefer 32 exposures from 220 in my ga645. Its more relaxing lnowing I am getting so many shots.

I actually discovered I have a bunch of 10 and 15 shot rolls in the freezer. Expired Agfa HDC and HDC plus. Think I'll break out the F and shoot some oddball stuff. Been wanting to try C41 in Rodinal anyway.
