I got 2 batt, always charge one before going out...I will swap batteries after every photoshooting, to make sure that I don't overuse one battery  wink.gif Never really ran out of juice before, was near to draining the D700 batt at KLIMS the other day, shot around 1k pics and still have some juice left  shakehead.gif

i heard the shop ppl say, nowadays lithium batt dun have memory, so, it doesnt matter need to finish it juice oni charge...from time to time, even it left, 50% can charge it aso...what Bliz say is correct, dun overuse/overcharge the batt. it will reduce the batt life..this is how the shop ppl told me...

is orange..juicy juicy...XD


Added on December 10, 2010, 5:41 pmadriance...thx for the reply...learn sth here...

do you guys shoot and keep a record of the metering setting of each photo? coz i found that once take out, we cant track the metering (lik iso, wb, shutter speed, etc). and this metering somehow is useful for a reference for me...

Lock in exposure manually before the action starts, so that all exposures will have same values. White balance on auto. Fire is almost equivalent to daylight, the camera does very well. AF-C, release priority and 21-point mode. After that, just spray and pray, then pick the better looking shots afterwards.

We weren't allowed near the stage due to the fire, else I'd be shoving my 17-35/2.8 right into the scene. Instead I had to sit far away and use the tele.

Thx for sharing...so, how bout the aperture?

Download this program:

http://www.opanda.com/en/iexif/

Check the EXIF of the photo, there should be a field called: "Total Shutter Releases"

is it true when we shoot, it will be automaticlly save the file name with numbering?
eg. DSC_2536. this mean we have shoot 2536 pic? or this just show the pic that have not been deleted?
