Flash draws the most power, then the LCD, AF is next, then memory, and finally
the CCD. Pretty much have to use the CCD and memory, but the less you use the
rest of them the longer your batteries will last.

Umm, what's Image Review - the screen on the back where you see what you
shot? Why turn it off? To further the manual film camera
experience, or
does turning it off do something else, perhaps wrt how quickly the
camera
will react or process pics?
Turning it off puts the pleasure of surprise and wonder back into the
picture taking experience. A side benefit is longer battery life.

Key words, Shel:
BATTERY LIFE.
In my own digitals, the way I use them, I primarily use the viewfinder.
The LCD just goes along for the ride.
But, I do activate it from time to time, and I am aware that sometimes
the time between charges is pretty short!
Might be from using the LCD all the time. <g>
