How do other D60 owners keep their camera awake?
I find, while waiting for the right bird to be in the right place, that the camera has gone in standby mode and it takes an age to wake it up again. Bird flown by then.
Should I change the settings to keep it awake longer? and if so.....how long.
|Does that use a lot more battery power? (I have a grip with 2 batteries)
Second question: Do members convert into Linear files, if so, what do they do to get them into something recognisable? Actions?
I have been converting the CWR files into Combined Tiffs and then use PS to make something of them! Chuck most into bin as not in focus.
Please help.
Mines only a lowly D30, but i leave it on nearly all the while when im out with it. The two batteries have always lasted a day, and i prefer to run them right down before i recharge them anyway. I've given up with the auto power off because as you say it's a pain.
On your second question, I'm one of the lazy ones who only shoots jpegs so can't help. Have you looked at Fred Miranda's web site? - that might help?
Paula,I have mine set to power off after 4 minutes, I generally give the shutter a half press every couple of mins to keep it awake. These setting seem to suit me.
I've only just started shooting in RAW mode and could do with some tips myself!
Cheers Andrew, I'll be looking at the site you mentioned.
