Re: Instant Chimping - Do You Do It?

True, Shel, it was a case of if I'd got it they could break off being photo 
subjects and go do something more interesting!  For most of my 
family/informal shots, it's good to not be forcing people to hang around 
while you shoot a whole load of frames, IMHO.
BTW, it's very unusual to get such a quick response from your part of the 
world - are you up early or to bed late?

You either got the shot or not ... why bother to look when you could be
taking another shot. By looking at the screen you're missing the action
going on in front of the lens. Makes no sense to me at all, John.

I do use the review screen, set at 3 seconds display and on always,
normally.  Found it invaluable when, yesterday, I was shooting my stepson
and a wriggling 1-year old for ensuring the faces had been pointing
towards
me!
