Do you chimp?

Do you chimp? Via Wikipedia:

Chimping is 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 capture.

Hah! Check out the Flickr tag for people chimping.

I've discovered Aussie singer-songwriter Ben Lee thanks to Shaun. Awesome listening. Awake is the New Sleep! And that's the way I like it.

Last link. Anyone that has the idea to make an Earth sandwich, you know has got to be one funny guy. View some of Zefrank's video shows - hilarious! Like how to quit smoking (the easy way). I just watched it again, Gill was right. He never blinks.

Imagine my annoyance (after last year’s Jack Johnson/KFM debacle) when about ten minutes after I fell in love with Ben Lee (via http://www.archive.org/details/benlee2004-06-17.shn via Evan Dando) I heard a shitty cover of ‘Awake Is The New Sleep’ blaring out of the new Old Mutual ad.

Thanks for the linkage Jon. It’s used in this Nedbank ad too, or is that the one you were referring to..

Ben’s album is damn good. The little skinny dude has a habit of writing catchy as hell tracks.

Yeh, I think I meant Nedbank. Green, corporate, you can see how they’d meld into one.

Which is probably just as well since Old Mutual own Nedbank.

I think I could become a chimper… I’m getting worse… I’m starting to check most of my pictures right away or immediately after (when I can still go back and try to take the same pictures again).

I love Zefrank and his amazing cat… I’m wondering if he’s a chimper too :)

Jon/Coda, do you happen to know which song is currently being used in the Old Mutual ads?
