Chimping


afbeelding

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.

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!)
* when a photographer is completely absorbed in the act of analysing, admiring or proudly showing a photo off to others.
* by experienced photographers to describe the actions of "wannabe" photographers.

Chimping, de betekenis.
