CHIMPERS.lol

Now I know where the term comes from.!

Usage varies depending on context and the person using it, but common uses include:
- when a photographer’s sounds and actions of reviewing frames on-scene appear similar to the actions of an excited monkey. (Oooh! Oooh! Aaah!)

Don't forget about back seat chimpers.

Quite a funny pic and video.
I'll throw my two cents in.
I think it's chimping if you look and make faces and/or the Oo Oo Oo Aa Aa Aa noices.
If you are looking at the histogram, shooting parameters, and what not, you are being criticle and learning/getting feedback on your work. Hence, it's not chimping.

Another funny thing I noticed is that most of those guys shoot with a Nikon and where as hobbiest are so proud of labels and L's, many of those guys seem to tape over their labels or add stuff, I think I saw a "Hasselblad" on a Canon LCD, he he he.

I shoot tethered to a laptop as much as possible, a number of people can see the images as they come in, is that a group chimp?

jack lumber · 6th of September 2006 (Wed)

So do you suppose,that given an infinite # of laptops,and an infinite # of chimpers they would eventually view every image ever taken?

NickSimcheck · 6th of September 2006 (Wed)

That would be an international-homosapien-chimpathon. It's been done before, ever see halftime commericals?

If an infinite number of rednecks riding in an infinite number of pickup trucks fire an infinite number of shotgun rounds at an infinite number of highway signs, they will eventually produce all the world's great literary works in Braille.
