Neil is right, I delete in the field quite heavily. If we are counting actual shutter clicks, it's probably double (more like 1000), given that I tend to auto bracket some scenes and reshoot some to correct exposure after checking the histogram. Also bear in mind I tend to shoot the same scene from multiple angles and in differing light (possiblly over a few return visits), so I end up with a lot of duplicates.

Once on a PC I'll then review and kill off anything that doesn't imediately grab me. If it doesn't say "wow" to me, it's gone. Even if the composition is nice and the focus and light is good, it can still be a boring shot. I hit "delete" ruthlessly :-). The test I have in my head is "yeah, it's nice, but would you hang it on your wall?".
