Do You Chimp?

Chimping: a term used in digital photography (especially when using a digital single-lens reflex camera or DSLR) to describe the habit of checking every photo on the on-camera display (LCD) immediately after each shot.

I'm trying to think who doesn't.

I dont chimp,

but I do check out my images on the little TV on there. I dont know why else they would put a TV on the back of a camera.

For some reason, it doesnt work on my film camera.

To do so I'd have to take pictures to chimp.

Not much of that happening since last late summer/early fall.

Guilty as charged...

Some guy just handed me a banana, so I stuffed it in his ear.

Only on Special Occasions!

Occasions when I take pitchers!

But I really don't chimp very often...really...I don't!

I have my LCD turned off!

That little TV thingy doesn't change channels either. I get the flower channel and that's about it!

I think everyone is guilty of chimping in their own style....I often utter "ahhh sweet!!"
