Thinking that pixels cost money- a bad habit left over from the film days- don't waste any frames- make sure every frame counts.
Respectfully, that's not a bad habit. Unless you are shooting BIFs or other fast action stuff it is a GOOD habit to thoughtfully consider all the things that will make the difference between a good photograph and a snapshot! And, as much as possible, with the fast action stuff also!

Using the camera’s auto setting way too much AND not adjusting the exposure triangle (ISO, Aperture, and Speed) enough to get alternate prefect results. Recognizing this is not using or exploring the full range of the camera’s capabilities…..working on it!

Chimping. I miss a lot of great shots because of that.

Forgetting that in the digital age I can shoot at higher ISO what I used to in film! During film days mainly B&W press I never shot higher than 400 ASA/ISO even then I preferred 200ASA as max due to grain! During a trip in Namibia around 2018 I started to work on some of my shots taken in the upper Swakopmund River and noticed that they are not sharp! The info on the shot showed 100ISO/F8/and at a VERY slow shutter speed thus, not lack of sharpness but rather major shake!!

Mine is shooting in JPEG auto for the quicker shot and then go to the next "quick shot" . Then hopeing
for maybe 1-2 out of 10 for review and possibly framing.
Now I shoot solo without any distraction from impatient fellow travelers who could care less about the art
of real photography. To them, cell phone photos are all they ever do.

Sadly, you’re right on the money for me! Yup, yup.

Batteries is something I never run out of. I have an extra supply plus a charger that I always take with me. I've traveled to Europe and I have a charger with me at all times. Running out of batteries makes no sense to me.
