A GB of pics in RAW for the istDS is only about 95 pics, which isn't even
three rolls of 36-exp film.  That's not a lot of pics for a full day of
shooting.  Of course, many of us have made even more exposures.  A lot
depends on subject(s) and situation.  I've used a couple of rolls of film
on just one subject while sitting and talking with them over the course of
a half an hour or so.  I've also gone out for a day and only made five or
six exposures.

I'm not sure what you mean by your question of how I store the images. 
They stay on the card until I get home and then are downloaded to the
computer where they are converted to DNG and edited.
