Hi, Bill,

Valid points, all.  My acquaintance (I'm not calling him a friend,
because I don't much like him - and not because he uses N****, either)
tends to use the LCD screen, and shoot as fast as the body allows him,
for one or two seconds at a time, then edit on the fly.  Wouldn't take
long to shoot several hundred exposures that way.  No wonder he has to
take a spare battery with him.
