No offence was intended
. I consider 'good habits' to include anything that maximizes your output, and that includes both quality and % of keepers you end up with. What works for you will be different from what works for me. Most of what I do is pretty slow and methodical, and for me not moving the camera a few inches closer to get the framing I want (
when I have ample time and magnification to so do) I have to consider lazy, sloppy, and detrimental to the final output for no good reason other than I was rushing.
It's the lazy shooting just 'cuz I can crop in PP that I consider a bad a habit, when there's little to no justification for shooting sloppy (and the necessary disclaimer: everyone is free to decide on what they consider a valid 'justification' and also they are free to ignore my opinion).
My main point though- I've learned to eek out as much performance from 6mp as I can, that's gonna help with how long I consider 16 mp 'enough'.
