Oh, I agree. I teased my wife about chimping, made her the subject of derision
in a cheap-shot TOPE shot. And then I, my very own self, suffered an
unexpected conversion and went to the digital dark side. Now with the E-1, I
find myself chimping after nearly every shot. I try not to, and often attempt
it surreptitiously, but if the histo-thingy don't look just right, I tend to
shit-can the shot and shoot again.
I don't care what they say about old dogs. We can learn new tricks. And
sometimes shamelessly. :-)
