I have just picked up on this thread and had a chuckle.

No need to buy a new card just set out with the equivalent number as a roll of film as your max available shots. 24 or 36.
Be honest with yourself and DO NOT CHIMP OR DELETE ANY FRAMES. This would put your mindset right back into the film days.

Zoom users could also pick up the challenge of limiting themselves to say two specific focal lengths as zooms were pretty poor back then, and most used primes or just the good old 50mm that came with the camera as that was all that could be afforded.

There you go Alex ....... no different to the film days of the 60's, 70's and 80's.
