RDKirk Adorama says I'm "packed."  More info | I didn't even know what "chimping"is - had to look it up. Well, back in film days there was no such thing - so I didn't. In the film days, "chimping" was called "Polaroid back." Those were available even for the Nikon F and F-2 and the Canon F1. TANSTAAFL--The Only Unbreakable Rule in Photography

BRILLIANT!  I loves to turn my camera around and let the audience chimp. Share the chimp love I say... Hope the TF doesn't see that.  Ah ha, mention the TF when you say something dumb and it won't strike. Tricky. Isnt that illegal where you are?

If you or anyone else thinks you're somehow less of a photographer because you like to review what you shot, screw 'em.

I "chimp" because I haven't learned to interpret composition from a histogram...even on the 1D Mk III. Or whether that hairlight actually flashed. TANSTAAFL--The Only Unbreakable Rule in Photography

It is appropriate for anyone who belittles others for using a design feature provided for the benefit of the camera's user. In this case, it was directed at the reply, from RDKirk, to my first post. I took it to be a negative comment insinuating that I did not know how to interpret whether a hair light had fired. This did not answer the OP's question and was totally irrelevant to the subject of this thread. For that matter, the only image in my post was my avatar. That picture is essentially a snapshot, taken with on camera flash, not under studio conditions. Therefore, I believe his comment was unreasonable. If I misinterpreted his intent, I humbly appologize. 1DMKIII, 20D gripped, 70-200 f2.8L, 24-105L IS, Tamron 17-50, 580EX II, Sigma 500 Super, a couple of Dynatran tripods, Manfrotto 685B monopod, some bags, some stands, some Paul Buff stuff...This is getting out of hand
