I never (well, ok, I've done it a couple-three times to make sure I understood how) chimp or even look at pictures on the rear LCD. It seems like precisely the sort of distraction that'll keep me from noticing the *next* photographic opportunity. I understand the whole heuristic, holistic, para-mathematical paralysis feeling, but this is what both the green mode and hyper program are for, or at least I think so. One doesn't have to tackle any of the variables one doesn't want to tackle. -- Graydon -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
