I agree wholeheartedly. And I'm still trying to get used to the idea that I can take as many pictures as I want and not have to worry about the cost. But when I remember, I shoot, check exposure, look at the composition, re-compose, re-shoot, experiment, etc. Then I get very quick feedback that would have taken a week previously. Its a marvelous teaching tool.

I don't understand why there seems to be so many comments on the list suggesting that shooting digital cameras will likely not strengthen our skills as photographers?

Isn't the first advice that any photographer gets is to shoot then shoot some more? The way I see it is that digital makes this easy given that there is no film costs plus it records all the technical shooting data for review after the fact.
